He’s looked poor to me. Lampard was playing him wrong. But played more central under Tuchel and he has the shot power of Stevie May. Definitely a player in there but nowhere near as good as I thought he was going to be when he first arrived in England. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked too and his dad is Alf-Inge Håland/Haaland who is Norwegian (his mother is too), he was born in Leeds with his dad playing for them and the family moved back to Bryne, his parents hometown when he was 3. So he's 100% Norwegian, but was just born here. He's played for Norway since the U15's and played in Norway until 2019 too. I don't like the rule anyway, I would prefer you have to at least be half of a nation to qualify to play for them. I also feel the top countries hoover up all the talent this way. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erling_Haaland I like his nickname "The Terminator" I thought that as well.

Incognito Owl Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Forgot these as well, first one fits with Haaland too with The Terminator name and him having blonde hair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshOwl Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Top top player. One of the best strikers (if not the best) to play in this country the last 20 years. Reckon he’ll go back to Madrid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
