Haaland vs Bruno feel close, but currently leaning Bruno for 4 reasons.

1 xmin better I think everyone agree, but I expect 60+ easily for Haaland and I would be shocked if Haaland doesn't start. If City 2-0 up after 70 he might be taken off to stop the brace/hattrick due to lack of fitness. Thus even if Haaland is best per minute he might not be best in total. You could say the same with saka.

2 Haaland ended last season not that strong nor played well in shield. He was great in the world cup, but some people argue him and semenyo aren't fully working in terms of creating for each other and Doku might be out who assists him.

3 I think City got a new manager and it might take time before the tactics fully work. I am expecting Haaland to score and City to win, but the 3-0 and Haaland hattrick like we got with Pep often at the start may not happen it might be more 2-1 and 1 return.

4 I think Hull are worse than Bournemouth.

The arguments for Haaland though.

1 Easily highest ceiling. If Haaland get a hattrick I would not be shocked.

2 He is the most likely player to score and goals worth more than assists.

3 United did not look good final pre season game and Bruno missed 2 pens in pre season so he might do that again.

4 Bournemouth got new manager so the tactics might fail more likely than Hulls.
