9 | Erling Haaland - 2024/25

Anyone blaming him today can't have watched the game.

He would have scored a hat trick if he played for Bournemouth today.

Calling that a sitter is hilarious. Most players wouldn't even get a shot off in that position!

Lmao. You need to watch that back.

He's one of the highest-paid players in the world, and a large majority of this sub treats him like he's Rico Lewis.

Haaland has never been and will never be a presser. His body doesn't allow it - nothing to do with being arsed. Also, he was clearly carrying something for most of the game.

Well if he’s not scoring because we have no creators and not pressing it ain’t looking good.

Poor, but given virtually fuck all to work with.
We seriously lack creativity / the capacity to create good chances.

Keep reading Kev is finished but Erling has 9 goals in 4 games with him and 2 goals in 6 games without.

I think he's talking about that stoppage time chance where he hits the post after the goalie saves the first one.

I hope Pep & Khaldoon are aware of it

This comment belongs in the toxic matchday thread. Maybe you should take a couple hours to cool off before commenting utter bullshit

Okay then, how about prime Tony Cunningham?

Either way, he’ll never be mentioned in the same breath as Sergio.

This.

I know it sounds crazy, as we won the treble with him, but it is/was the poor squad construction from Txiki and co. In my eyes, we need an athletic as-heck midfield to make up for Haaland's lack of pressing from the front, and currently, we have the opposite of that. In Txiki's defense, and in retrospect as I wasn't a big fan of the idea of signing him at the time, the Rice offer makes a lot of sense. Hence why, I'm so adamant about the idea of giving Nunes a run in the middle. We desperately need some legs in there.
