King Kante Report post Posted January 19 2 hours ago, asvaberg said: Even though I'm Norwegian, I am very uncertain Haaland will "save our club". He is very good in BD but mainly because his teammates are good, or even better. I do not think he will save the club by himself, rather he is the type of CF and personality we need. At the moment our biggest problem is how lightweight so while yes Håland will help with that, it will also require other positions to be remedied too namely DMF.

We have 3 decent strikers at the club already. We need to get better at supplying them with quick, direct passes, crosses and runs before we do anything else. We've had several expensive strikers struggle for goals at Chelsea now in the last few years. Whilst some obviously don't help themselves (E.g. Higuain, Morata) others haven't had the best service to work with at various times. I'd obviously love to see a finisher like Haaland here, but we need to get better at using strikers in general first to be honest. And as King Kante said, that DM area needs solving pronto. Lots of teams playing through us with far too much ease of late. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We don't create any chances. Swapping Giroud / Abraham / Werner for Ings will achieve absolutely nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
