He has always been good at bullying weaker teams and scoring penalties.
Nordic Ghost Yeti (Scandi Carroll) | Haaland at City
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
City on verge of an unprecedented fourth title. Their star man has scored a hat trick. Yet I've seen more atmosphere at soccer aid games.
No he hasn't been good at all for most of this calendar year. He has looked back to his best in the last 60-70 minutes of football and got 4 goals out of it.
Seems they worked out the hardware glitch that plagued recent deployments of the Haaminator.
Insane that in possibly his worst season he’s still going to comfortably finish top goal scorer
He’s just ridiculous. He’s a walking cheat code.
Yet I guarantee that we’ll not man mark him in the final. We’ll stick to that zonal marking that’s worked so well.

Flat track bully
Another strike that will be conveniently forgotten when people say all he can do is tap-ins.
That golden boot race was interesting for about 5 mins 
Unless you're putting Rashford on him, seems like a waste of a body when De Bruyne and Foden are around.
Pep, when is that 5 goal record in the PL and CL ever going to be broken if you keep subbing Erlingardinho?
He's only 23. Feels like he's been around for a long time already. fecker better get bored of city and go to Barca or Madrid soon
One can only hope. Same with fecking Pep, please.
How the feck does Cole Palmer have 20 goals?That golden boot race was interesting for about 5 mins
Played like a championship striker today.
9 pens
35 penalties
I'm not fussed. He doesn't make them any better, he just bangs goals in against mid table and relegation fodder.
Lukaku-delux.
Labeling Haaland a bad player because he gets bacon wrapped by two CBs in every major game is mythical level of coping.

The man who ended his dad's career living rent free in the son’s head.
For some reason this myth still lives on. Keane tackled his right leg and Haalands left knee was the reason he retired.
When he goes, City will be back to fighting for top 4.
Haaland asked about Keanes comments shrugs them off and replies "I don't care what he says".
Keane - "Haaland acted like a baby after getting subbed".
Roy - "He's a league 2 player" "He's a baby for being angry about being subbed"
Haaland "I don't care what he says"
I'd say given the evidence it's Erling who is living rent free in Roy's head
Roy Keane. The man who famously moves on and doesnt hold a petty grudge.
Roy is a pundit, sounds like he's just doing his job. Erling is the one who made it seem personal. (He actually said I don't care what "that man" says)
"That man" is an insult now? What is he if not a man? Well a formerly decent pundit who's turned into an attention seeking clown spouting hyperbole and banging out his "That's his job" catchphrase, like he's on a 90s sitcom I suppose.
Still what should one expect from a man who thinks "Smiling is overrated" and did his own cruciate trying to injure Haaland Sr.
Roy is just saying it how it is, the league two comment has been massively exaggerated. We all know Haaland is a monster in front of goal, it was his general play he was referring too. I think you know that.
Also hit while Haaland Sr wasn't looking. It was a cowardly act in truth...
If it were Ronaldo chasing some record showing annoyance at being subbed off I’m pretty sure Roy would be talking about how it’s indicative of his top tier mentality and desire.
This is true, he's a huge Ronaldo stan. Which is funny because Ronaldo was once a skinny kid in a team that he was the leader of.
He's been good but worth mentioning 9 of them are pens.
Roy Keane is so similar to Graham Sourness.
Yes, 9 pens but still more non-penalty goals in the league than Saka and only one less than Salah. He's a young player in his first proper season, at a dysfunctional side, who arrived late in the window etc etc.
I have actually heard Souness say something sensible and logical about modern football here and there in between all his waffle.
Keane is basically just a old man yells at cloud character at this point, but I do admit he is a funny guy
I don't disagree on Keane but out of curiosity, what have you heard from Souness that was sensible?
Keane looking silly now. This won't be like Souness and Pogba where Souness doesn't look silly and in a way proved right about Pogba. Haaland will have a much better career than Pogba and fans will warm to him regardless. Keane will lose respect among the public if he keeps going on about trivial things for Haaland.
Very true. He is a very stubborn man who will refuse to even try to see past his biases. Like that teacher we all had in school who would have a few 'favourite' pupils who he'd give the benefit of the doubt to, whilst also consistently picking on other pupils who he decided he disliked a while ago.
I loved Keano as a player but he is a deeply flawed pundit.
Would be hard pressed to find concrete examples to be fair, but I feel like there has been more than one instance where I have felt Souness has sounded a bit clued up when he removes his bitterness.
Keane I find just says stupid outdated stuff all the time.
I think their football analysis is the same but I might be biased here since I think at least Keane can be funny. I think he has brilliant comedic timing and seems like good fun to his friends. Souness just sounds miserable all the time with his everything new is nonsense rhetoric.
