It should come as no surprise that a Viking goal machine joining one of the most prolific creative sides in the league should equal goals but even so, the sheer speed and composure Haaland showed away at West Ham was frightening if you’re a fan of any other club league-wide.

Haaland had 5 shots, 2 on target, 2 big chances missed, 2 goals scored including a penalty, which he earned with his deceptively rapid pace on his way to a monstrous xG of 2.17 this weekend – a figure higher than over 50% of other Premier League clubs managed to produce in their opening games.

He scored 2 goals en route to a 13-point debut in Fantasy Premier League. We get the feeling that we’re going to be talking about Haaland a whole lot here in this section.
