rumours about we may target a striker to take pressure off of Haaland. talking about making a big mistake in the recruitment ad trying to fix it once it cost us quite a lot. and it wasnt like something we couldnt have expected. on the contrary we were lucky Haaland was one of the few players that magically avoided injuries so far this season despite flogged for 90 mins all the time almost here and Norway too.

Totally agree.He was dropping deep more and doing link-up against Forest. I just don't understand why one game he's asked to do that, and not most games. I felt he always looks better when he's given more freedom to maneuver.
More movement out wide and dropping deep drags defenders away from the box leaving space for others. As we saw v forest, goals for KDB, Doku and Silva.
Love to know what the genuine alternative is if this lad ever gets injured. False 9 is just wishful thinking, it worked before when we had goal scoring wingers and energy in midfield. We barely have enough midfielders to cover midfield.

Not on the wind up, BUT would you sell him for £150m or whatever and buy 2-3 Aguero/Alvarez types that suit our system? Now everything seems to have ground to a halt as we can't implement Plan A.Massive clustetfuck recruitment that’s what we have
It is still a no in cashing in for me. The only questions are whether to alter our playing style to get the very best out of him (although 108 goals in 120 negates that a bit), what does he really need to improve in his game and whether we should consider Foden as cover for Haaland (although not on current form).

Hat trick on Sunday, it's happening.
I do think prime kun is way better but that’s a tough one mateNot on the wind up, BUT would you sell him for £150m or whatever and buy 2-3 Aguero/Alvarez types that suit our system? Now everything seems to have ground to a halt as we can't implement Plan A.
