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.

    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.

    I think he’s been good but he’s playing for a stacked team that most likely cheats so it’s hard to go insane over him. What he’s doing is basically living up to the expectations. He needs to do much more for it to be insane.

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

    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.

    For me, Haaland is great but he’s essentially doing it in a manufactured billion pound squad, so it’s expected.

    Haaland scoring what he has at Arsenal or Tottenham or Villa etc would be astounding. At City it’s just the work of a limitless machine.

    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.

    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.
