Erling Haaland

[Keeper!]

I’m drinking from the same well as you

It's amazing what 5 goals and a dream can do!

You genuinely think we could do it in 3 days?

Manchester to Hannover airport 2 hours followed by the couple of hours drive to Dortmund. Take a Doctor (if you can find one!!), show them the readies via satellite link to the open vault. Sit down, couple of bottles of Hennessey, large box of fine Cuban cigars whilst hammering out the contract. Get Press conference set up for Tuesday 11.00hrs. Smash smash, job done ;)

3 hours if we paid what they're asking.

Would they not need a replacement though? Maybe we could loan them delap?

If it was likely to happen it'll have been discussed for a while, which would have meant a leak from somewhere
There's a temptation to think we've been playing a clever game removing the competition, sadly I don't think it's the case and we go with what we have

See it's all falling into place, we all come together and plan this out, it can be done!

I'm more than confident to say there is close to zero chance this gets done by anyone quickly, and he's not coming to City if he doesn't make it crystal clear we are his first choice...IMO

they can have him and Mendy....dam maybe not

Don’t be like that hop along the Fun bus

 

[simon23]

We don’t have the bollocks to be like PSG and just say fuck it though do we?

exactly this ...we are far too nice and try to be everyone's "friend"

Yea same here. If anything this window has shown our executives are human and make mistakes. Haaland now changes our fortunes for the next 5 years. It’s sad that we are not allowed to spend. Pre FFP Erling would already be in blue. The cunts have won.

:D it'd be sweet to get it done - but at the figures quoted let's be honest.
Last time I hopped on the Fun Bus I had a bad experience ;)

It's has always been very "simple", even now.

Any club that meets Dortmund's €150m euros asking price can have him today.

In addition to wages of £500k a week, £40m to Mino and the Haaland family, the buy out clause, it would move very quickly.

Sadly, it's a £200m deal before a ball is kicked.

Would I do it?

Not my money, would break the bank and even go another year without a left back!!

We weren't a million miles from these figures trying to buy Kane were we? And you can certainly justify the obscene money for Haaland compared with Kane, as good as Kane is. Hmm.

It’s funny fans of all other clubs are convinced we cheat FFP, we all know we don’t. Yet most of our fans are just as quick to jump on tne PSG ignore FFP rules bandwagon too. When there is no evidence that’s true either.

Miserable fuckers you two

Wages might be a sticking point there.
He does great and then you’re looking at giving him an improved contract which makes it difficult.
If we could get him on £300k-£350k a week to begin with and then there would be no problem giving him closer to £500k a week if he’s the superstar I think he is.

£500k a week. The greed of footballers really is staggering.

That wasn’t the fun bus

but you were taken for a ride I’m afraid to say

Income from Haarland’s fandom generation will generate an extra few millions. Cost is relative isn’t it ?

Maybe, but if we want to stay at the top of the tree we have to pay

 

[Thenumber1blue]

Mbappe is going to Madrid this summer and Richarlison is replacing him by the looks of it

I'm not seeing any of that happening
