After Liverpool crushed Red Bull Salzburg’s hopes of reaching the last 16 of the Champions League with a 2-0 win in Austria, Manchester United fans have had their say over long-time target Erling Haaland after an underwhelming performance from the youngster.
Since selling Romelu Lukaku to Inter Milan in the summer, the Red Devils have arguably been left short on target men – with Marcus Rashford, Mason Greenwood and Anthony Martial taking up the forward spot in his place.
This has prompted speculation over whether United will invest either in January or next summer to bring more forward options to Old Trafford in their bid to challenge for a title once again.
One of the names being linked with a move to Manchester, Haaland has been in sensational form both in Europe and domestically – scoring a combined 28 goals in all competitions.
However, some Man United supporters have been disappointed with his latest performance – here’s what they had to say:
Btec Lukaku

There wasn’t any need of sending head of Utd scouting system . Total waste of time lol

I keep saying this- he’s an ALDI Lukaku.

I said ages ago, he’s just a b-tec Lukaku. When better teams with organized defenses show up, he disappears.

Maybe he’s a penalty box king just like Lukaku. Haven’t seen anything else from him tonight

It seems like his teammates are avoiding him in buildups. like they know the ball will bounce off him or something. We need to stop with the lukaku tap in merchants. Players like martial and (werner) are so crucial to how we play nowadays. They need to be able to be in buildups
