FFS; it's "Haaland".......

What, Erling Håland??

Currently at a stand off waiting to leave with one daughter in the car, one refusing as her sister’s wearing the same kit as her and obviously they can’t be seen out in matching outfits

Their older brothers are looking confused but learning a valuable life lesson about leaving the house with women

If you're coming in from Helsinki remember to roll up the car windows at the part that involves the North Sea. Be safe, blue.

Can't speak (or type) Norwegian, unfortunately. So I have to go with the widely accepted, anglicised version of his surname. But I get your point.

What, Erling Håland??

Like. And it's pronounced “Hawland”. There's a tiny town in Norway whose name is composed of just one letter: Å.
Wanted to visit it just to say that I'd been to “Aw!”.

Ha thanks, we’re back in Scotland now

But the transport links to Manchester are better from Helsinki than Edinburgh, trust me.

No reason for Burnley not to play their strongest side with promotion more or less sewn up. I’m sure Pep will go strong and assuming we weather the likely early storm we should have more than enough to get through.

FFS; it's "Haaland".......

Tongue in cheek comment : Legally it's "Haland". I think even the circle accent over the single "A" is missing what with this being a UK record.

Now THAT'S what you call deviating from a Match Thread.

After that CL draw I am more than ever hoping Pep rests Dias, Rodri, KDB and Haarland.

They will be flogged to death by their national managers in the next 2 weeks risking overplay injuries so its up to us to give them a rest.

Not a chance that Pep will do that but to me its a no brainer. If those 4 stay fit we will not have a better chance to win the CL imo.

Best chance of winning a trophy, need to go full strength.

People were still misspelling Aguero right into his final season here. Does my head in.
Lucky that I saw people like Somearebi and Belle play for us.

Yung, Coalman, Buck, Pardo as well.
