robsblubot 3,595 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 (edited) Haaland is the typical natural goal scorer... he will be scoring goals until he retires. He's not the most skillful strikers I've seen play the game (not even close), so the way to stop him is to kill service--evidently easier said than done with a team like City.

Pizy 19,374 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Can already tell Burnley are going to really struggle in the PL based on how they’re defending here. Leaving De Bruyne WIDE OPEN repeatedly to whip in those signature crosses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robsblubot 3,595 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 (edited) KDB has been looking heavier and heavier (not necessarily unfit btw). Wonder whether they should focus on body fat reduction or whatnot. Seen that work wonders for players at a certain age.

robsblubot 3,595 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 His finishing is indeed fantastic. Get the ball to him and he can apply the finish from any position and condition. Inter understood that and did well preventing him from getting the ball often. Burnley evidently have been unable to do that. Second goal was a sweet shot, but the 3 Bunrley players were nowhere near Haaland. The difference in quality between these two sides is really something.

Pizy 19,374 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 You’ve got to do two big things when you’re playing against City or they’ll systematically dismantle you. You’ve got to stop press them aggressively when they’re building up and you’ve got to deny Haaland having many sniffs of the ball. You see Ederson just standing on the ball for like 15 seconds at a time often. You’ve got to speed him up and disrupt their play from the back. And as we saw against Arse in the Community Shield, when Haaland isn’t touching the ball he’s not much of a threat. He was totally invisible that game. He may be the best pure finisher since CR7 but he doesn’t do much else in general play. NikkiCFC and Vesper 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
