Struggling for fitness according to Pep this morning. Taken off in all 3 pre-season games due to muscular niggles……….
Think that is just who he is. He always has struggled with niggles. Just shows how important it is we try to keep Alvarez as he will get opportunitiesStruggling for fitness according to Pep this morning. Taken off in all 3 pre-season games due to muscular niggles……….

Hopefully the heat and lack of match fitness but…it feels like a common theme.
Particularly concerning (a little) when the games themselves aren’t exactly strenuous in terms of pace and physicality.

even more so when he recently said he felt great after all that rest.

He's being looked after and gaining match fitness not being overworked and rushed so he's 100% for start of the season. Only gotta look at the rags to see what happens when u rush and overwork players.Struggling for fitness according to Pep this morning. Taken off in all 3 pre-season games due to muscular niggles……….

Sadly, called it post match. Never saw haaland struggling in the games but remarked on how odd it was he was still only getting 45 minutes at this stage. Surely it's better he just doesn't play if he has giggles, rest him up and get him injury free first, plsying through niggled always carries a risk we simply dont need to take.
Alvarez whether he stays or not will be unavailable until at least mid September after deciding to do 2 tournaments in one summer so we've got no other options, bobb or mcatee filling in as a false 9 isn't going to cut in in the premier league.

Getting 50+ in the vain of season 1 may be a push regarding appearances, the niggles will persist due to demands, however, he won’t be far away from a goal a game which keeps all of our trophy ambitions honest; like drago, anything he hits, he destroys

It is common for commercial game contract like this to have time requirement related to star players - unless they have medical certification that they are not fit to play or a conflict with their national team schedule.Sadly, called it post match.

Halaand just did the minimum required and showed respect to the contract and fans. Pep gave a polite excuse of him not continue in the 2nd half. It is just common practice.
What are u moaning about?

If the article I’ve just read is correct he will be suffering from niggles!
He has allegedly ‘raw dogged’ on a 7 hour flight. No food, no water, no phone, no inflight entertainment.
To go 7 hours in a plane without water is just plain silly. Long haul flights cause enough dehydration without making it worse by actually refusing liquid is downright daft for an athlete getting ready for anew season. JMHO
