Erling Haaland: Matchday 1's Man of the Matchday and Borussia Dortmund's apex-predator taker and maker

Erling Haaland has had a direct hand in 80 goals in 61 competitive appearances for Borussia Dortmund, including 56 in 44 Bundesliga games. Just allow that to sink in for a moment...

I know sometimes there can be a general disdain for stats, especially without context but 1.33 goal contributions every match, over 3,500 minutes is astounding.

It's not a new sentiment, but I really hope the club does everything in its power to sign him.

When I saw Mbappe first come on the scene, he had that power, acceleration and control that put him on a par with the real Ronaldo. You could see he was a special player. What is it in Haaland's game that is such star quality? His goal record is amazing, but not seeing anything in particular in his game that makes him special. What is it that enables him to be such a goal-scoring talent? Is this transferable to the premier league?

Some people were trumpeting Andre Silva in the window. I saw him play for Portugal yesterday...

I’d say his physique and power is what makes him special, he’s been blessed with a unique body.

You know, I’ve been thinking that the only reason we can seemingly only close release Clause deals is it’s the only way the selling club can’t fuck us. We saw it with levy, we saw it with villa (offering grealish to everyone) people don’t want to sell to us.

12 goals in 15 games for Norway and hattrick yesterday. That's for a national team that is not very good. However, they have some bad teams in the group but he still manages to score, whether he comes up Van Dyke or a packed Gibraltar defence. This kid really is something special, no doubt.
 
We should just make a statement with this guy. He should be ours and should be the first time that we simply price everyone out of the market regarding the nature of the contract.. a must signing. He is unreal. Even Messi and Ronaldo could only dream of his numbers at such a young age.

Only player I can think of looking close to this lethal at such a young age was (real) Brazilian Ronaldo. But this kid seems to not carry the mental baggage and appears to have a mind set that he will be the best striker in the world for a long period.

He is a no brainier. He clearly wants to play in the most watched and competitive league. What we gonna do? Let the Rags grab him? F*ck that.

It's one of those things that can't be injected into anyone. It's all between the ears, and Haarland probably couldn't explain it, but the end product is being in the right place at the right time, and doing the right thing at the right time! All the great goal scorers have it. How many times have we seen Aguero score and just wonder how he did it! The goal against Reina from that tight angle and the one against Allisson when he turned on a pin head! The right thing done at the right time!

This is bang on... the great goal scorers have a calm and ruthless approach that relies on a balance of instinct and anticipation.
