9 | Erling Haaland - 2024/25

[balotelli's back pocket]

He's physically fucked. Started the season off brilliantly because he got a rest over the summer, but he's been played into the ground because we decided not to replace Alvarez.

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

Zero service = zero goals, colour me shocked.

We didn't even cross the ball from corners FFS.

Don't give me this zero service shit. There were at least a couple of occasions where the ball was played to him and he made no effort to get there in front of his marker. He seemed more interested in backing into the defender than focusing on the ball.

He's a fucking disgrace.

 

[Blu1]

Pointless in our set up & playing a man down everygame

 

[manimanc]

Like the rest of the team he's clocked off.
No biggie.
He's won the lot, he's young, who knows what his mental state is.

He'll be back, this season is regrouping and getting everyone fit, we get some players in January and next summer and crack on.

You can't have a go at a Erling because he's misfiring, he's been electric for us these last 3 years, he's got credit in the bank just like pep and the team have.

 

[Damanino]

I guess he will play 90 mins vs Villa, and then Everton, Leicester and WHU too. may be able to rotate him vs Salford but Pep might start him there too.

he played pretty much maximum minutes so far in PL, 16 games, started 16 and dont recall he was subbed off much maybe 89th min 1-2 times or so.

he scored 7 goals in August in 3 games, and 6 goals in the next 13 league games.

He's a fucking disgrace.

Were those couple of occasions long balls from Walker and Ederson?

Silly me, he should be bringing those down, turning his man, dribbling the other 2 CBs and scoring.

Relying on crosses and through balls is so old fashioned.

 

[BlueMonkey79]

Just been schooled by Maguire.

Now that is an embarrassment.

Quality player, playing in the wrong team.

Wake me up when he scores in a big game. He's the total description of flat track bully.

He doesn't even look arsed now. Laughing the other week with Liverpool players, and abject displays like today.

Just cash in on him.

Only we could have the worlds best striker on the books and not play to his strengths.

I don't blame him for his lack of interest during the game. He doesn't get the ball, time and time again. So gives up.

When he does get the ball it bounces off him, and he gets outmuscled by a lot smaller defenders.

There is no fight left him in.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Despite his ridiculous numbers, I’m still not convinced he’s a great fit for the way we play. I think he’d been more effective at a more direct team like Liverpool.

Kneejerk reaction. He had no service

Maguire ? he was beaten in the air a couple of times by that Argentine midget.
