Bringing his transfer value down

Like prime Drogba at only 20.

As for "not getting drawn into a bidding war".

Weird how the first time Pep has ever talked about spending 100m+ on a player was the week him, his dad and agent were in town eh?

Here come the “he didn’t score so don’t sign him” brigade lol

Would we need to change our game to accommodate him though?

I know it’s gonna get me killed here, but please read Delaney’s article from yesterday on The Independent

Why do Man City want Erling Haaland? He scores ‘their’ goal more often than they do

Haaland has made City’s trademark goal his own as he prepares to face them in the Champions League

The way Dias bounced off him was frightening.

He pushed him, if Dias done that to him he would have been off!

You clearly don't understand how release clauses work.

If there's no release clause and you don't want to sell the player you can give him any price you want. A release clause limits that. They have ZERO benefit to the (selling) club. Look at Neymar, Barca gave him an "insane" "hands-off" release clause of €222M. A few years later after the market had continued to inflate, PSG paid it.

There is a very good reason City and almost every top team in Europe DON'T give their top players release clauses.

Sané's transfer would have been completely unaffected by a release clause, unless it was cheaper than what Bayern paid. Contracts will still run down with or without release clauses.

Do you understand release clauses? ;)
(Sorry Kun, couldn’t resist)

Barca didn’t give Neymar a release clause as a ‘hands off’ reason. All players in Spain by law have to have a release clause in their contract. I’d consider Real, Barca, Athleti & Seville as 4 of the top European teams in Europe, so to say almost every top European team don’t give their players buy out clauses, I’d suggest is incorrect

Personally I don't think we would too much. He would adapt to our game. He's deceptively quick and he can press (not Dortmund's tactic tonight). The amount of touches we have in and around the box compared to nearly every other team, he would have a field day. We love getting the ball wide and often one of my biggest frustrations is how many times a decent cross is swept up by a centre back or goes out for a throw in.

Would love us to sign him.
