Erling Haaland

[M12Blue]

More like "£90M Earling to £50M Sterling back to £90M Earling........Goal for oil rich Manchester City"

‘£90m sterling for Erling to £50m sterling for Sterling back to £90m sterling for Erling ..goal’ not a classic post by any means, but probably the one requiring most concentration to type for a while

The lineups will look silly
LW: Sterling
ST: Erling

We have history for this sort of stuff, Silva x 2, Fernando & Fernandinho and before football began the Futchers.

I'm sure there's loads more but I'm not fully awake yet this morning.

Didn't we also have multiple Garcias playing in City's early games under Pep?

If we do sign Haaland it will be first father and son playing for City since Summerbees I think.

 

[BillyShears]

At this point everyone knows what's coming.

Shaun and D’Margio Wright-Phillips ;) Still blows my mind that SWP has a son old enough to be a professional footballer.

Was thinking about him and Devante Cole but did either play a competitive game for the senior team? Almost positive DWP didn't, don't think Devante did either.

What's he on about, "Surely Man City go after Haaland" is even worse grammar.

Yeah, pretty sure neither made a senior appearance.

Really.

is there any more you can tell us fella.

What squad number, 9? :)

 

[Deepest Blue]

I was just reading about how United tried to sign him back in January of last year, and the more and more I read. I don't think they ever had any interest, this seems more and more like they were doing Ole a courtesy more than anything.

We may need to be wary of the same.

If you listen to those deluded twats they were in for pretty much every top player of the last 15 years. They have the best scouting network by far.

Sergio, Spanish Dave, Varane, Ramos, the list goes on.
Could have had them all if only...

And so it begins...

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

United doing what they did with Pep.

Distancing.

Distancing.

Adhering to good social distancing

 

[Tricky_Trev]

If we pull this off it might just be the biggest statement we’ve ever made. This is a guy that every club on the planet is desperate for.

 

[richards30]

And so it begins...

it done tolm?

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Boxed off.

Certainly as far as United are concerned ;)

Cavani has told United he doesn't want to stay this week and that's why the question on a new striker was posed after the AC Milan game.

It's a steer from Solskjaer to manage expectations.

I will now go as far to to say our own contact with his old man started four months ago :)

 

[Cheeky Txiki]

Haaland has probably decided months ago. I remember watching a video of him playing FIFA with Phil in which he says "I have great respect for City." I think the boy's coming home.
Now, A perfect send off for Kun would be to win him the UCL he desperately wants to win for City.

Still a bit to go on this one.
