    Haaland needs to behave himself, karma has a habit of stuff like that coming back and biting you on the arse.

    He's great - the ****housery with the ball on the back of the head was prime time ... now if he was a **** finisher like Maupay he'd deserve dogs ... but those 100 goals in 105 games cuts him loads of slack ... viking phenomenon...

    Was a poster on here once claimed Darwin Nunu would outscore him, dontcha know <whistle>

    He's a magnificent footballer, possibly the best goalscorer in the history of the Prem (if he stays in England long enough). Still, humility has never been one of the attributes I've ever associated with him. Maybe strikers shouldn't be full of humility on the pitch - there's a lot to be said for arrogance at the top of the game. But off the pitch? He's never struck me as a man of humility, whereas Henry, Mane, Scholes, Zola, Vialli, Kompany, Pirlo, and many, many more didn't swing their dicks about off the pitch like they sometimes did on it.

    I don't mind him having bantz with players, like when he chucked the ball at someones head during the goal celebrations. But it was directly at a manager after the game, unless he felt the manager didn't acknowledge him. I know Arteta is a bit of a tit, but that's for the fans to engage in.

    Got a soft spot for them since we sealed our league one promotion against them on the final day. Fans are a decent bunch.

    Just back, you should have lost, they had 3 really good chances to your non. Lots of tippy tappy neat triangles from your lot but nothing to trouble them much at all. Considering how many you took, all very quiet from your lot too.
    What the **** was that dickhead trying to achieve running onto the pitch to have a go at Cooper

    We all have our share of morons ... unfortunately for Cooper he starts at a disadvantage with some due to his Forest connections ... idiots have quickly forgotten that our most successful captain ever (Big Wes) was a former Forest legend ... as was a previous manager Martin O'Neil ...

    Cooper needs to be given time to stamp his own identity on the team - we're doing OK so far - could have been better... but could also be a lot worse ...

    Haaland was acting like he was playing for Spurs.
    Never seen him rattled like that in a game.
    He is usually confident but not usually so unhinged, barging people, throwing balls at peoples heads, mouthing off.
