9 | Erling Haaland - 2024/25

Apparently, the big guy is copping in for some stick back in Norway, for refusing to talk to the media after the National team got dicked 5-1 by Austria. I get it ; no one wants to talk after a result like that. But he was the captain last night, the figurehead for the team. It wouldn't have hurt him to front up to the media, and spout the usual platitudes after such a result. Former Norwegian striker, and now pundit, Rune Bratseth said “Normal procedure is for the captain to stand tall and answer for such downfall. It is precisely on days like this that you have to stand there and answer. It's just the way it is, and especially when things don't go well." I wouldn't expect anything else from the media in the UK. I'm just not sure how wise it is to wind up the media in your home country.

Anyone else get the feeling he'll be here for another 10 years? Imagine.

Bratseth wasn't a striker, but a very good defender. Probably the best footballer out of norway until Erl and Ødegaard came along. Not really important I know. More interesting is the fact that he is actually a big childhood City fan.

Not Barcelona. They are prepared to do "anything" to sign the beast in 25.

That was copied off a Talksport article. Blame them!

Surely we’ve had wind we aren’t going to get into any trouble with 115 if this is true.

Pep next.

May the vats of piss boil and fill the air with its stench.

Fingers crossed.
