It’s just one of those things I’ve noticed. He increasingly favours his left foot. If we look at this incident from the recent Everton game, many will criticise Cherki for losing possession, but my first thought is why does Haaland not use his right foot to pass the ball?The more i see that the worse it gets. The shot was obviously shit but why he’s not thinking as he’s getting there to just knock the ball past the keeper in the direction he’s running i will never know. Impossible for the keeper to stop him then without getting sent off. 30 yards of space to run into and open net. Basically could not miss had he gone round him.

In fairness, I think Cherki is pleading to the referee for a foul, but it’s Haaland’s insecurity with his right foot that leads to the problem. The more closely you watch his game and not just his goals, the more you can see that he shapes his body and takes extra touches to compensate, and in a game of small margins, that can prove telling.That's a very interesting clip. Yes, you're right, it's a five-yard pass, that's all, just begging to put in front of Cherki (whereas in fact, because he changes feet, he puts it directly into Cherki's feet, or even slightly behind him, and Cherki is running at full pelt, so can't control it properly). And if you look, Cherki, even while on the floor, is looking up at Haaland with his palm open, as if to say “What the fuck, mate?”
Would he have? Who told you?If Aguero didn't get the amount of injuries he did for us and didn't have that physique that takes him a good month to get back into shape after an injury, he would have bagged 30 in the league every year for the decade he was with us.
He was elite.
Haaland is too, but both different.
Would he have? Who told you?
We've supposedly been recruiting badly for the last couple of seasons and he is still hereWon’t be around for long if the poor recruitment continues.
There is no supposedly about it. Surely the recruitment being awful the last few years is a unanimous opinion?We've supposedly been recruiting badly for the last couple of seasons and he is still here
My point is that Haaland ain't going to pack up that easily He will be around when a lot of the rest of our current team have moved on.There is no supposedly about it. Surely the recruitment being awful the last few years is a unanimous opinion?
But what’s your point anyway? Last season was awful and this season isn’t looking much better…do you think it doesn’t bother him?
I’d love to share your optimism. The recruitment has to improve or it’s simple.My point is that Haaland ain't going to pack up that easily He will be around when a lot of the rest of our current team have moved on.
The look on his face on the touchline when they scored the 2nd
