9 | Erling Haaland - 2023/24

[chris85mcfc]

His biggest problem was that he was so good last season. He hit the ground running at 100mph. From the first penalty at WHU everything he touched in front of goal went in. Everyone probably expects the same from him every season now. Strikers miss Easy chances, just as much as defenders make fuck ups costing us goals. It's part and parcel of football.

I get what you're saying, but injury aside he'd probably have another 7 or 8 goals, and no one would be questioning him.

Not aimed at you, but some people have some incredibly short sighted views when it comes to our players and our squad.

There is no one I would swap him with in world football love him

Are we really talking about swapping him?

I get the impression that we are not allowed to criticise him in this forum. World class player but can be lazy and has missed alot of easy chances this season . Still love the guy though .

You have to be 'all in' on BM or you're a hater.

Imo, this season will be the opposite of last season in that Haaland will get stronger and stronger in the final 1-2 months. Last season, he was relatively poor in the final 5-6 weeks, as he played more football than ever in his career. This season, he will reach new heights in the final months.

Would love him to score the winner at Anfield.

Sometimes it’s ok to criticise a okayer if you don’t think they are performing but if doesn’t mean you hate them or want them gone .

He needs to get up to speed and scoring again because right now he's a not not getting involved enough. Ok he assisted Foden and had a good shot saved but most of the game he was shackled by 2 defenders. Looks unfit at the moment because he's not trying to shake off those marking him to find space. It'll hopefully come soon though and a goal could be the catalyst to going on a good scoring run.

Not worried at all about Haaland. Bit rusty. A goal to get him going. Monday was certainly not the game to judge him anyways.

Stop hyping him like we can’t do without him. We can. We have loads of brilliant players.
And stop bullying him ffs. He probably puts away a few vs Everton. I’m sure he is eager to. Remember last year when we played Everton at home?

Genuine question, are you stupid?

He's played 90 minutes of football in 2 months. I've read some shit on here in my time, but this is certainly up there.

It's my opinion and i couldn't give a toss if you don't agree.

I didn’t say we was I said I me wouldn’t swap him for any other striker in world football
