Good player that lad, could become legendary. That's assuming injuries don't slow him down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a physical freak. Just one of those where you hope his build doesn’t cost him wear and tear and ruin his career. I was very much cheerleading for City to sign Haaland instead of Kane a year ago when the cost for Kane was blowing into the £100m+ range. Nothing against Kane, who is a proven goalscorer and they’re not the same player, but I really do think Haaland is a generational prospect with the potential to be as potent as any forward who has ever played the game. By the time he’s moving on from City I think he will be regarded as the best in the world, if he isn’t already up in that tier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said on here before that he reminds me of the original Ronaldo and that performance underlines why. When he’s in motion moving forward with the ball like that, it just feels like an inevitably that he’s going to score. He just seems bigger, faster and stronger than anyone else on the pitch. That second goal wasn’t ending any other way from the second it left De Bruyne’s boot. I agree, his movement off the ball is fantastic, and with the ball, not many are knocking him off it.

Spuddy01 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 (edited) It's only early days but on that performance and if City keep supplying him balls like today, he's going to tear the Premier league apart! You can't defend against that kind of movement, combined with his pace and power he's unplayable. And he's only 22 Edited August 7, 2022 by Spuddy01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sova Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Assuming he stays fit, and assuming City do reasonably well in the cups, I wouldn't be at all surprised if he scored 50 goals this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if he'll manage that this season, but I do think he'll be a 40+er in the next three years provided he stays relatively fit. He's the complete package in a very good team.

Burnsie Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 He's only just 22 and 6'5"! Monster. And can also move! City gonna walk this league I think. Look at the players on the bench!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bannofan Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Ten Hag might be asking his lawyers to look for a get out clause in his contract after that performance. Sadly he's like one of those arrogant women who think that THEY are the one that will tame the bad boy..sadly Man Utd are proper bad, and if they turn in a performance like that after hes worked with them all pre season, then it's not looking good. There's a few players that aren't good enough, such as Maguire , but overall it's an attitude issue that both Solksjaer and Ragnick couldn't improve. I can see them spending most of the season well outside the top seven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
