    Haaland.

    Now that’s what you call a centre forward.

    Nothing elaborate from him, just physicality mixed with pace and fairly simple movement in the box.

    If you’re a centre forward of ANY age then you just study this lads game.

    22 years of age and if he stays fit and stays in England he’ll smack Shearer’s 260 goal record.

    This lad is everything I love in a CF.

    That size (1,94 m, 88 kg) combined with THAT pace… And perfect timing and vision at 22… Impressive to say the least.

    I watched the second half, what a bore, City made more backwards passes than forwards, I reckon. The five subs rule is ridiculous.

    He doesn't look anything like any of the girls I shagged when I was a young man Al'.

    If you had standards when you were a holiday rep they must have been lower than a snake's knackers.

    All of those Scandinavian beauties and you were trawling the bars for female Haaland's 😊 .

    Definitely looks like a girl 68. Those were the days being a holiday rep as every night was Saturday night! Tenerife - Fuerteventura - Benidorm - Majorca - I could write a book and the Swedes and Danish loved a bit of PR!

    He is unbelievable. Nearly a goal a game at Dortmund. Absolutely a different class to Sterling and Jesus, who for obvious reasons wasn't good with crosses.

    It just struck me as I watched the highlights (and yes Haaland is a beast, and I agree totally that that's what you want from a forward) but when the commentator said that rice was leaning back when he put it way over the bar.......Bomber Brown NEVER leaned back. always hit them low and hard, head down. Great player.
