Haaland does need to turn up on Tues as I can't remember him turning up in any big games, esp away. And that's why we signed him. Dave, yaya, kompany, aguero all did.

As long as he makes space for other players then he can just be a spare part...............................apparently.
ANY goal scoring chances players like Haaland get on Tuesday there will be no hiding space if they fuck it up as we never usually get anything at spurs ground.
THEY SAY SWEARING IS DUE TO A LIMITED VOCABULARY. I KNOW THOUSANDS OF WORDS, BUT I STILL PREFER "FUCK OFF" TO "GO AWAY"

He's scored away at Arsenal, utd, Villa, Newcastle, Chelsea, Bayern Munich. That's 5 of the current top 8 there and Bayern in a CL QF.

He didn't score against the following this season;
Aston Villa away
Chelsea home
ARSENAL away and home
Spurs away
Real Madrid home and away
Liverpool away
Newcastle home and away
That should make OD squirm

Or maybe he'll score 5 goals between tomorrow and Sunday to get to 30 league goals again and there'll be a few others squirming.

I hope he scores 10. My point he hasn't been on form this season comparing to last.

Course he's not as last season he broke practically every record going. He's still going to get the golden boot despite having missed 2 months.

As maybe.
But two more goals and a game closer to Golden Boot suggests he’s earned his corn this week

As a little aside
In 2014/15, Sergio Agüero won the Premier League Golden Boot with 26 goals in 33 games, his best single-season PL tally...
Erling Haaland has beaten that tally in BOTH of his seasons with Man City.

He hasn’t managed the goal total of last season. Very unlikely he would. Where would we have been without his goals though? Absurd the amount of shit he gets.

I don't think it's absurd to call out the superstar of the team when he doesn't do anything in a game and doesn't run?
Zurich he was pants tonight? Tap and pen yes. Couple of runs we didn't find but half the time he runs into defenders to get marked instead of the space and it baffles me.

We should all be careful what we wish for hoping the best goal scorer we’ve ever seen “adapts” too much. Pep picks him every week for a reason.
Tracking back is overrated.

I mean pep picks haaland every week largely because he's a big money signing the board brought in. I doubt haaland (as with kev) would ever be dropped.
Pep doesn't always play the plays who should play. Look at stones...

Do you seriously think Pep gives a flying fuck if a player is a 'big ticket, high flyer, must play ' signed by 'the board'

100%
So many examples of playing someone we paid big money for over someone already here who would be miles better.
What would happen if haaland or kev were benched for two games in a row?
