Not a coincidence that he did that when Ronaldo wasn't playing. Juve should never have bought Ronnie.

Quincy, how good is Erling Håland? I keep seing him linked to a lot of big clubs.

You know how I feel about that acquisition. They’ve focused all player trading around how to win with Cristiano now. It’s the most bizarre thing I’ve ever seen. A sharp right turn from what was happening before. And they’re still not good enough to face the top two in England. Maybe old Lady Luck will smile on them

@[deleted] To be honest I find Norwegian football extremely tedious, so I only watch my local team. The only reason I've always followed Ødegaard is through sheer luck because he came up through that one. The first time I heard about Håland was when he scored four goals in half an hour or something away against a team that was unbeaten in the league so he seemed special just based on that, but I really have no idea. I only read about him in the papers some times after he's done something out of the ordinary. A couple of months ago he scored 9 goals in a U20 WC match against Honduras, but they were truly awful. I see now that he's opened the 19/20 season with 6 goals in 4 matches, so it's kind of weird that he hasn't been hyped up in the Norwegian papers.

Bizarre is the best word to describe it, Ronaldo is probably the reason they let Kean go as well. They're sacrificing their future for a (in my opinion slim) chance at glory now, and they're betting it all on a player who's already started to slow down. Three Serie A players scored more than him last season, and that's not good enough for a player who has gotten rid of all his other areas of usefulness to maximize his goal threat.

Very impressive display by the 16 year old Angolan midfielder Camavinga against PSG for Rennes.

He has bossed the much more vaunted PSG players.

Looks an unreal talent, only saw highlights but to play like that at 16 against PSG :gape:

What a glorious pass for the second. Folks who watched the game are all raving about his maturity in midfield. Raul should keep one eye on him, the other on our Bundedliga kids.

Big strong lad for his age, any age really. Quick, decent eye for a pass and a great holder-upper. Consistently gets into good positions and finishes well. Technically good, but not fantastic. Kind of like Giroud in some ways, but more mobile. Also reminds me of Carew, but better technically. He has a bit of that weird explosiveness of someone so big. I think he could do well as a target man for any team just below the top echelon. I hope he is even better than that, of course, being Norwegian. 

I have to say, his start to the season in Austria is extremely promising. I don't know much about the level of that league, but it's surely a few steps up from the terrible Norwegian league, and he's racking up the goals (9 in 5 games) and assists having just arrived and at only just turned 19. Will be fun to follow as a Norwegian.

Just saw it. Very mature performance for someone 16 years old. Reminds me of Reece Oxford

The fuck is this?

😆

😆 It's like a parody of everything that is shit about modern r&b, except he really means it.

The Bury story is devastating. Saw the story of the old man who goes to the ground everyday to see that it still exists. Heartbreaking stuff

Some goal by Vela. Zlatan gets all the attention because what's he's doing is very impressive given his age and, well, he's Zlatan, but Vela is having a by far better season.

That's a fantastic goal but what the fuck is that commentary!

he was a supreme talent, shame about the party mentality

Hes one that our scout nailed it. Superb technical talent
