Calma everyone.
First of all, I never said he WON't score a lot. Look back at my posts here.
He has the best machine cooking at his service. It would be epic fail for him not to score a lot.
Pep is also not an idiot to not figure out a way to get the best out of him.
(Proof for that is that I have him - and captained him tonight - in my EPL fantasy team
)
But the question is if the best out of haaland is the best for City.
he makes City so much more predictable, and more limited against top opponents, he is one dimensional
City since 2020 were more about less directness, more intricate connections, more patience around the pen box. Haaland cancels all that.
It's all good and nice vs the Palaces, the Bournemouths, and the Forests of EPL. Let's see the Haaland effect, though, in CL and against the EPL big 6
