Where does Haaland sit?

[bluebell]

30 goals in 27 Games in PL
11 goals in 7 games CL
3 goals in 2 games FA Cup
1 goal in 2 games League Cup
45 goals in total in all comps with 6 assists
Best player in Europe by far, but can we say he is the best striker the Prem has ever seen?

 

[keniget]

If he keeps it up then yeah he’ll go down as one of the all time greats, potentially best #9 ever.

His numbers can’t be ignored.

 

[My_Blood_Bleeds_Red]

He's an absolute monster. He touches the ball for like 10 times throughout the entire 90min, and yet still come away with a hattrick. How do you play against that ?

If you man mark him, it opens up spaces for others.

That good?

Couldn’t lace up Origi’s boots.

 

[rubans]

His record is fantastic but not a striker that excites me, seems like striker built in a lab and just bit boring to watch.

 

[tomasjj]

have a look at his off the ball movement, particularly in the box
great awareness

 

[Farkmaster]

His numbers can’t be ignored.

I can ignore his entire career if need be.

Still boring 😉

 

[tomasjj]

Wouldnt be if he scored them for us

In prison when found guilty of tax evasion.

 

[rurikbird]

On a giant toilet draped with a Man City flag, apparently. I do like him though - you can tell he genuinely enjoys playing this game.

At his current rate, he will have scored 49 goals by the end of this season

 

[binomial]

Still wouldn't be enough to overtake the best to ever do it though the fat pony tailed donkey.

Also how is there such a gap between Mo and fake Ronaldo?

 

[tommyboy]

Fake Ronny's is record for Champions league only goals not domestic league

 

[rubans]

Still not as good as Mo in his first season with us, meh…

 

[darkstarexodus]

Until he does it again, he's Kevin Davies.

 

[ctlovesred]

Mo did it in a team that wasn't already at the top of its game after years of investment and winning trophies. While Haaland's ability to be in the right place and apply the finishing touch is incredible, he's not exactly carrying his team on his back is he?

His goal scoring rate is both remarkable and boring. Mo's was only remarkable.

 

[bluebell]

What he doesn't have in terms of looks he makes up for in talent.
If you had to compare him against Polish Bobby, how would he fair? Would he be smashing Polish Bobby's record if he was playing for Bayern?

Don’t be silly he needs do it year in year out for the next 10 years for that. I’d still take peak Suarez.

RVN was like that. Boring as bad shit but scored for fun.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Or Kevin Phillips

How many seasons did Suarez play in the PL? The guy is up there,

 

[Red Astaire]

Where does he sit? I would say on my tongue because he's a beast but the thing is.... He is a Manc and he will always have a face like something you see if you stare into the back of a spoon.

Suarez was better. If he played in this City side in his pomp he would have monster numbers.

 

[Dreambeliever]

How many seasons did Suarez play in the PL? The guy is up there,

He’s currently a very very good(arguably best) one season wonder.

 

[Modo]

I think he will slow down soon. Injuries will take a toll on him.

 

[binomial]

Is he the highest paid player in the league?

Can't wait until he fucks off to Madrid personally.

 

[Hansern]

He's a monster and currently probably one of the best players in the World. Boring or whatever, it doesnt matter. He shits goals and defenders just cant get control over him. The game yesterday was probably his best all round performance for City. Made Gabriel look like a rag doll.

I want him to fire us (Norway) to a World cup. But on the other hand I cant stand him for playing for City.

Doubt he'll slow down just yet. They spend an absolute fortune fine tuning him in between games and its working given his fitness record this season.
Suarez was more technical but Haaland is on another planet when it comes to goalscoring. His record is insane and he's only 22 years old.
43 games for City, 49 goals. Fucking hell.
