9 | Erling Haaland - 2024/25

Much better today but he has to continue to throw his weight around like he did in parts today.

Could see the confidence grow as the game went on.

Like Dortmund Erling after Mcatee came on and he got his goal. Dropping deep and driving forward with the ball.. passing wasnt great but it was good to see. Could use more of that so he's not so isolated as he often has been recently.

Really put a shift In the last 25 minutes and seemed to want to take the fight to opposition. Let’s hope we see more of it.

Why cant he pass the ball accurately over 2m?

Im glad he scored but he has gotta make those simple passes.

Wally by name,wally by post !

Thought he was lazy and lethargic again in spells although he saw more of the ball today. His touch and distribution are very poor and he really needs to improve on.

Took the goal very well and I hope it really gives him a shot of confidence. Also seemed to perk up when McAtee came on too and was looking more interested.

Overall much better than he has been but still miles away from where he was.

Had a few nice moments to be fair but yes he is very wasteful on the ball. It was just nice to see him way more involved in the game and aggressive.

I actually think having less of the possession suits him but I cant see pep mentally being able to adapt to that.

Like most, I don’t have any issue with him barely touching the ball, if the team is playing well, winning games and he is scoring for fun…basically his performances since he arrived. Having passengers through a horror period like ours will always draw criticism and he has looked disinterested in recent weeks.

Definitely - even on his worst days he needs to be giving the same application as today. Even just that moment where he bullied Coady - gets the fans up so we can sing his name. Thats what we love about him

Yeah I liked that he used his body more.

He dropped deep, he tried to bully the defenders more, clearly a slightly different approach from him that Pep wanted.

Just work on that basic passing and that performance would be perfect.

Looked like a man on a mission today.

Wish we got him involved more, he used his presence today a few times and nearly got one of the goals of the season in the first half!

 

[Gigant]

Need one hat trick in his bag badly!

But with all of this fuss , cant see that happening any time soon

I was at the game today, watching Liverpool now.
Salah, Gakpo and Dias up front reminds me of how used to play. All speedy, skillful with lots of movement.
Foden, Savinho even McAtee could play that way .
Haaland definitely not.
