He broke the premier league scoring record in his first season, he won city their first ucl. Won the treble. He has 13 goals in 12 games this season. Excluding ballondor and that, how can ANYONE not drool for Haalands goalscoring ability. This is coming from a Liverpool fan that cant believe the standard of talk around this player.

    Is he that good? he barely scores against really good teams… Look at Real Madrid or Inter. Not even a single shoot on goal. Same in Wolfes game… he can create, he only sits and waits for ball. He is far from the best still…

    I’m n Norwegian newspapers if he doesn’t score people seem to get surprised now. Which is funny tbh,

    Because while he’s an exceptional goalscorer, arguably one of the best we’ve ever seen, is he a great footballer? Does he offer anything else to a game other than scoring? Personally I think Nunez is a better player (NOT GOALSCORER) and think he’s great to watch.

    Really it’s because no one cares about City’s accomplishments. I’m not impressed by them at all due to the 115 charges against them. If Haaland did that for another team I would be more excited like when he was at BVB.

    Because he’s a tap in merchant. He is not scoring screamers as the likes of Suarez, Rooney, Gerrard, Salah, Kane, Aguero, Son etc. Plus Haaland has only done it in 1 season in an already strong squad, so it’s not as impressive.

    Define going “insane”. I think he’s an excellent player but I’m not a man city fan so I won’t be drooling over him.

    Cause the way goes about achieving the above mentioned feats is extremely unattractive or at the very least banal to most people.

    Possibly because he’s doing it for a team that have been cheating financially for years and are also owned by a human rights abusing state.

    Last year everyone certainly was. This year it seems to be more of a “yeah, of course he did that, he’s phenomenal.”

    Some of his misses tho this season wow. Some people just see goals in football and literally nothing else. The same people who would say van nistelrooy was better than Henry.
