Kid's a bit special. Comes off the bench at 56 minutes with Dortmund losing 3:1, and scores a hat-trick in 20 minutes.
There are players like Moise Keane who've had over half a season and not bagged a goal yet, and here's Haaland coming on and being the cat's pyjamas. Dortmund's a good fit for him at this stage of his career being so young. A couple of impressive years there and then the PL or La Liga will be calling.

What with? If money isn’t his motivation we’d have no chance on footballing reasons

I wonder whether Haaland's dad would have told him not to go to Utd because he got beaten up by Roy Keane. I imagine he heard plenty of anti-Utd things growing up. It wouldn't be the only factor though and some kids wouldn't care about what their parents said anyway.

Doubt it. It sounds like he made a choice of carefully mapping his career rather than choosing big bucks.

Yes, he seems to have a good head on his shoulders and he's taking it all in his stride. There are quite a number of good young players coming through across different leagues and I reckon he'll have the talent and mentality to be among the best of them.

What's happened to him? I remember some people last summer talking him up as the next big thing.

Haaland scored 2 more goals again last night for Dortmund...after coming off the bench on 65 minutes.
It's a goal every 12 minutes of being on the pitch. 5 goals in 2 games.
