Its Erling we want, not AlfieTelegraph reporting Txiki and Alfie Haaland have spoken to each other about a potential move
Whilst I'm always sceptical about us with regards to big transfers like this, if he had met with ourselves and Chelsea today (for arguments sake) I imagine the reports would be that he only wants to play for one of the two of us..
And it's still early April lol. 3-5 more months of thisChrist. One day of it being a saga and I’m already fed up!
Think we will do all we can to get him but if his agent comes back and say this club will pay this, this one will pay this absolute silly money as well! We will say this is our full package for the Player and if it ain’t good enough so can’t see us on our history of buying players paying silly money as in 400 to 500k a week...

If he doesn’t want to play for pep then it’s all about who’s going to pay him top dollar

€40M in commission!
Can't see City paying that, considering our stance with agent fees.
Even though we need striker, we should not be desperate in any way. We are about to win the PL at a canter without one.

We all might as well just start our own twatters and just join in with the rest of the primates throwing shit at each other. Hardly any of these reports are substantiated.
One thing on the money side of it. Getting this right in terms of choosing a side that can get the best out of Haaland is probably the most important decision of his career. This won’t exclusively be about pay.
If Haaland and Mbappe are supposed to be the next stars of the sport to supplant Messi and Ronaldo, then he is going to have to put up big numbers and win lots of trophies. Choosing the club that is best positioned to do that will provide him with the fame to build a large global brand that will be far more valuable than whatever his salary will be.
If he wants to be the face of the most popular sport in the world he has to win and it has to be at the club level because barring some sort of divine intervention, Norway isn’t going to win a Euro/WC. City is the best club in the world to offer him that opportunity. We have a young squad with a lot of talent all over the pitch, the best coach in the game, playing in the most popular/valuable/competitive league in the world and we are the only club in the Prem to compete in the last 10 UCLs. In terms of City’s evolution the next five-ten years could be among the best ever for any club in European history and he could be part of that.
If he goes anywhere but City, I will be wholly convinced he is either stupid or scared. City is the best choice and no journalist out there has the requisite intellectual hardware to surmise as much.

This is exactly why I don't like chasing hyped players.If he doesn’t want to play for pep then it’s all about who’s going to pay him top dollar
They usually dont have preference, its all about who pays the most.

This transfer feels like the stars are aligned in our favour or I really don’t think we’d have outed the plan for Sergio so soon...
His father played for us, he was a fan as a kid, if you believe what he’s looking for at this stage of his career then our progress / model as a club over the last decade and current direction of travel are exactly what the kid is looking for, we have the money, we are a big draw for top players despite our “lack of history” and location...
I think it is going to happen

It’s not the outrageous and obviously false reports from ridiculously untrustworthy sources that bother me; it’s that people believe them. The lack of media literacy is a serious problem

TV3 is the most reliable source concerning Barca. (a club which is interested in Haaland)It’s not the outrageous and obviously false reports from ridiculously untrustworthy sources that bother me; it’s that people believe them. The lack of media literacy is a serious problem

Or do the math on who would want this kind of story out (clue: the answer is in your post, and it relates to what I was saying earlier)

We paid £30m in agents and signed Aké, Torres and Dias during that period. None of them are particularly high profile.
£10m per player. €40m for Haaland sounds about right.
