I’m just reading that Haaland did a Micah and swore in his interview! :-) :-)

Sorry it wasn’t all, Pep loved Jack’s contribution.

Oh for Gods sake, the guy has said it himself. No one is expecting a hat trick every week, my main point was how the team makes best use of him.

Reading these forums for the past few weeks, I beg to differ. Plenty think he'll do 50+ this season, and yes, I do realise not all of them are serious.

Now THAT is a picture!

Is that Haaland’s daughter near the bottom left of that picture ;)

Noticed that Cancelo and Walker barely overlapped at all today and were both playing the inverted full-back role which allowed Gundogan and De Bruyne to play higher up. Coincidentally (or maybe not) both goals came via through balls from Gundo and KDB.

Looks like this might be Pep's solution to not having the natural width from a left-footed LB that he was expecting to have with Cucurella, i.e., to allow both number 8's more freedom to create.

That's 4pts collected between us and Liverpool.

You're missing the point. The comparison was just about the fact that we have a player that doesn't miss one on ones. It wasn't an overall out and out comparison of the total merits of each player. All we're saying is we can probably look forward to scoring more from that situation now, it wasn't necessarily knocking Sterling.

This is the same player that missed an open goal from a shot that came back off the crossbar last week, not knocking Haaland but all players miss chances if Sterling did he was crucified, but look at his goal record and what he did for the club, yet even today when he is a Chelsea player, certain fans are trying to still slate him

Moyes said it all in that interview. He was in awe at Pep’s tactics which he had not expected.

All the talk will be about Haaland but we've got a player on our hands in Alvarez.
The kid is gonna be a fucking star

If anyone NOTICED. Kyle walker and cancelo played as DM I don't trust walker there anyway. Cole palmer or alvarez should start ahead of grealish please

Mind you , it seems we were both off our tits on meth .
