Champions League 2019/20 | Group E

I'm sorry, is it Håland or Haaland? I thought "å" is pronounced "aw". But maybe in Norwegian it's a little different.

I'll let a native speaker answer that @thimmy

It's pronounced similar to the place "Holland" but with a longer first vowel sound

Hoaawlland?

Or maybe Haauland? or perhaps Hoooland?

Thimmy, get your ass over here.

Hoaawlland?

yes close to that. The problem with phonetic spelling for me is that we all come from different languages so it's hard to know that you mean the same sound as I. But yes, close enough.

Do an English one.

Auwland?

Believe me, I have a pretty good reason for hating them.

The H isn't silent. Like I said, pronounce Holland but stretch the O sound.

In Norwegian if there is a double consonant (like "ll") then the vowel before it is short. So if the kid's name was Hålland then you would just pronounce it like Holland. But since its a single consonant ("l") then the vowel before it gets longer.

I read through those posts, I didn't have the strength to see any of those videos.

THAT ISNT AN ANSWER

HOELLAND?

telling you exactly how to pronounce it and explaining the reasons behind it ffs. Better answer that you could have hoped for

OX 2-0

PUSKAS GOAL

That's another thing that's great about the UK. We give people named like Dave and John. Easy to say easy to remember. Ox with a worldy by the way

3-0 Mane

Also HOAWLLLAND 2-2 but Napoli make it 3-2 instantly.

Expecting the hype Thimmy will fuel for Håland to make his Ødegaard hype look silent.

And rightfully so though both of them deserve all of it coming their way regardless.

FT Genk 1-4 Liverpool
Salzburg 2-3 Napoli

Clearly Salzburg will make it difficult for everyone involved. The next game will be crucial. Salzburg scoring 3 against an all over the place LFC and 2 against a proper Ancelotti side. This group is not over. Next Match week if LFC can get a result against Salzburg then yes.

Hallund

Rincon summed it up quite perfectly. And the name is Håland. I assumed it was Haaland, which is pronounced exactly the same way in Norwegian.

Next is Genk at Anfield, right?

seems like the group has become interesting
Ox what a player
someone has to dig out that post from RG about Ox from last week, obviously jinxed him

I’m not familiar enough with Haaland to warrant having any strong opinions about him or his capability. For our national team, he’s looked like our greatest goal threat, by far, but I haven’t seen him play often enough for Salzburg to confidently back up his talent.

Ødegaard’s different. He’s from Drammen. I don’t watch my local team play often, but I watched him enough to be convinced of his natural talent, already at the young age of 14. There seems to be a lot of focus on his dribbling and ball control in the media, but it’s his football intelligence and passing ability that has always made him stand out from the rest. I’ve always thought that someone with such an exceptional ability to pick out a pass, can’t possibly fail at any level of this sport. Then again, I suppose you can never rule out the possibility that a young talent turns out to be mentally bottlenecked. luckily, that doesn’t seem to be the case with him, thus far.

Agreed with all you have said above, Thimmy as my exposure to Ødegaard truly began last season and he does indeed have it all but we know that does not always translate to what one expects of such a talent yet the signs are good so far in what has been a Top 5 player in Liga overall, so far this season.
