He's absolutely playing his part. Definitely should have scored from that pass from kev but his all round play was a pretty good.

He occupied that defence from start to finish.

I can see him bagging another 5 before the end of the season

Hopefully all 5 in the final against the Rags

The balls to Haaland need to be in behind, not to his feet. Might as well have Bony back if we’re just going to give it to his feet.

Hes best when balls are knocked behind the defence and he runs on to them. We haven’t done that a lot

Totally agree.

It's such a pity oddegard plays for arsenal. We haven't a hope of signing him and I think he's the best foil for haaland

His control is pish - the ball bounces off him more often than not and if he’s not scoring he’s a spare part on the pitch , no matter how many times the manager or fans try to defend him.

He uses his size and weight to try and retrieve or retain the ball , he hasn’t got much skill to do it so he has no other choice .

He scores goals and that’s why we bought him but when he’s not scoring he’s the most frustrating player on the pitch .

Agree with you on this one, a City friend of mine refers to him as a 'flat track bully' but at times he ain't that. Should have scored with his chance in the second half piss poor effort with his good peg.

Hes hardly going to say he was pissed off at the manager for subbing him was he !

Clubs don't give them media training for the love of it!

Keane has a proper hard on for Haaland at the moment. Maybe he thinks he’s a golden retriever

Remember when one Micah Richards did his first BBC interview before he'd done the course?

Bit of a shower then, weren’t we?

Micah is still a 'shower now' ,I don't think anyone taught him how to be a laughing Donkey every time he has the microphone in his hand...that was self taught.

Box ticking annoying cunt

He better turn up on Tuesday where we'll really need him.

If all eleven that start "turn up" on Tuesday , we will win. It is a team game

He's the highest paid player, expectations are higher than others whether you like it or not.

It is not a question of whether I like it or not.
Who are you to talk for everybody else ?
Your expectations may be higher because he appears to be the highest paid player - How do you know he is the highest paid player ? KdB has been considered the highest paid player recently.

Anyway , the point still stands , if the team turns up , we should win .

We're not a one man team. We will need 11 of them turning up.

I was at the game and missed his faux pas. Worth it though, I was behind the goal when he scored, and the mentalness was comparable to Aguerooooooooooooooo.

I think you're a bit strange. But then again, you think Akanji is Baresi in disguise. I'm not talking for everyone else, what a strange comment to make. It's all about opinions, I think you're obsessed with me, you just can't let the Akanji obsession slide, must have triggered a nerve.

As the highest or for arguments sake second highest paid player, as our most marketable player, as a striker, the pressure is on him to deliver more than others.

P.s I agree the whole team needs to turn up, however, he's not delivered in big games this season.

Nope , you are completely wrong and perhaps may i suggest obsessed. I couldn't give a toss about Akanji, he is an ok player. Pep seems to like playing him.

I have told you that many times but you still come out with this drivel.

i merely pointed out to you that the team needs to turn up , not just Haarland. Now you are crapping on about Akanji comparisons to Baresi ?? who on earth ever made such comparisons ?

give up , you are writing nonsense.
