Assuming he can play 38 academy games next season and bag 5 or more, he should be ready for the first team bench the season after. He’ll no doubt have to grab his chances when he gets them, with Sterling playing false 9


Well he's a big lad and decent with his feet right, so I don't see why he shouldn't be understudy to Ederson. We need that and as shot stopping is not the priority, he won't get bullied and should save 50% of shots if he dives the right way given his size.
That way he could skip the academy year and go straight into the squad

Taking the Number 9 shirt according to some ITKs.
Apparently Gabby is happy to have 33 again assuming he's still here.

Everytime he's involved in a match and when you know he's playing, you open live score and his name is on the scoreboard.

This kid is sensational.

It was a penalty tonight- did he take them for dortmund or just Norway?

His last goal for Dortmund was a pen, but I’m unsure if he took them regularly.

What a bonus it would be if he's got that in his locker too.

We'd have been out of sight this season if we converted the vast majority of our penos

Fram what I've seen (not much to be honest) he is taking them really soft. I was expecting him to smash them.
However, he was the leading scorer from penalties in Bundesliga's last season

Apparently young Erling has scored eleven goals for Norway since Nunez last scored for Uruguay.

Make that 12.

10 mins in and young Erling puts Norway head and shoulder above Sweden 1-0.
