Lautaro Martinez

[ath]

Found him a little selfish yesterday, cannibalizing some situations that others could have made theirs. I think he put too much pressure on him to send a message to Lukaku.

Nonetheless, he fought right to the end.

It’s a shitshow popularity contest anyway, but in some ways he was robbed and in some ways he’s too high

I think he had a better season than say, Bounou or Lewandowski, who placed above him, but I think Ruben Dias and Griezmann should be above him. Weird placement.

Dont forget his unforgettable performance in WC.

I feel bad because it gave a horrible impression of him as a footballer to the world. Yeah he’s not the most clinical, but the WC made him look like a total scrub

Definitely, but most don’t know that.

Sadly these things won't matter once you've stepped in the pitch. But then again, people won't take into consideration how he's had crucial impact in some key moments for Argentina in the knockout phase. Yes he's been quite wasteful, but at the same time he's been indirectly involved in their triumph, especially in the final, he was very impactful.

Honestly it works in our favour. If he had a breakthrough performance in the World Cup, I don't think we would have kept him. It ended up well for us and for Argentina since they won anyway.

Very beautiful goal tonight. He's on 12 league goals already, twice as much as second spot.

 

[Choppin Onions]

Great goal almost out of nothing. Atalanta marked him very tight and the weather conditions weren’t entirely favourable but he gave us the 3 points. A true leader.

 

[Glass box]

He's becoming the best version of himself this season

 

[CoolMan44]

Was very poor in the first half but had some really nice pieces of play and great touches in the second half. Great goal as well.

 

[Gaindé]

Tbh, looking at the stats, he kinda likes scoring against Atalanta too.
Come on Capitano do it in Champions League now

His 5th goal against Atalanta. That's 9 teams now that he has 5 or more goals against:
5 - Atalanta, Verona, Lazio, Torino, Sassuolo
7 - Fiorentina
8 - Milan
9 - Salernitana, Cagliari

If he scores another 14 goals until the end of the season (equalling last season's tally of 28), he'll reach 130 goals; that would put him at 8th in our all-time goalscorers table, 3 goals behind Nyers (our best non-Italian scorer).

If he stays on for next season, repeating 28 goals, he'd reach 158 and 5th place, 2 behind Mazzola.

Another one at 28, 186; 3rd place ahead of Boninsegna.

A third one at 28, 214; 2nd place with 5 ahead of Altobelli.

Conclusion: If Lautaro stays with us until he's 30, scoring at a similar rate to this and last season and without any significant injuries, he could very well become our 2nd best goalscorer ever. Realistic, or a pipe dream?

Pretty realistic, as long as we haven't sold everyone by then.

What about if he stays until 32?

What about if he stays until 32?

At the same rate of 28 per season, 270 goals. With another year he'd get to 298 and become our best goalscorer of all time by 33.
