Erling Haland

longers · September 18, 2019

19 year old son of Alf-Inge. Plays for RB Salzburg.

17 goals in 9 appearances this season including a hat trick tonight on his champions league debut. He now has four hat tricks so far this season.

Earlier this summer he scored 9 goals in one game at the u20 World Cup.

He obviously hasn’t played at the highest level yet but those are some impressive numbers regardless.

Looks like an ideal replacement for Werner at Leipzig if/when he leaves next season but some people seem to think he’s already too good for them.

His worst case is he moves to Leipzig next summer. But at 19 those kinds of figures are going to jump out no matter which European league he's playing in. And doing it in the CL makes it even more impressive. He could end up at a really top club very soon. I haven't seen much of him myself but what I've seen and read places suggests he might be a special one.

19 year old Striker that you can score you say?

Hat trick in CL?

Needs more time and patience. Poor lad will be literally wetting himself every time he gets on the pitch.

As we are currently seeing with Jovic at Madrid, should probably wait till he does it over a reasonable amount of time before we declare him Pele.

Genuinely thought this was a thread about the lead character from the Norwegian drama Nobel

Looks like he takes his goals well but will be swallowed up by the footballing scouts so we will wait and see

Has Jovic been turd at Real? Bet you're still fuming about Haller not being in Royal Blue..

Not sure Jovic is the right example after 100 minutes of game time in Madrid. You could say the same thing about Kean if you want to go that route.

Håland might not make the step up, it's impossible to know, but the signs are positive. Salzburg play the RS next match day so that'll be interesting.
