Seems like Juve are out, didn’t see this only thing I read about Juve was that they were trying to do a weird deal, where they sign Scamacca then use him in a swap deal for Vlahovic as Fiorentina Want Scamacca seems they have given up trying to do that deal. Seemed shady.

Agree with large parts of this, since xG largely depends on your role in a team, and the teams strenght in comparison to the teams they are facing. Vlahovic could very well be om top of this graph if he played for City. But than again, so could 20 others be too.

I think its fair to say Vlahovic is one of the most exiting young strikers in Europe at the moment, and he could score goals for fun here. He could also be another Jovetic (failure wise, they are not the same type of player). But every transfer is a risk, and if we sign him I will be happy. I would just much rather sign Haaland, who in my opinion are the closest thing to a sure bet you can get.

Jovetic`s main problems was he got injured putting his boots on.

Aren't Juve being investigated again?

And I think he never wanted to leave Florentina, he was very happy and settled there.

Seems like it’s a “bidding war” and he won’t be coming to us, then? Isn’t that how people think it works? Or does it only work for some players and agents?

His agent is trying his hardest, gotta give him that.

worst case scenario Haaland camp chooses another club while we miss out on Vlahovic by not being aggressive to get it done as we are "waiting" for Haaland camp.
and we start next season with Jesus/Sterling as strikers or another summer of chasing Kane.:)

Worst case scenario? Welcome to MCFC, this is most likely scenario ;)

Then end up winning the league again.

Not a chance that happens. Last summer we only wanted Kane, so was willing to let it go to the end.

We will know if Haaland is signing in Jan, if not we go for Vlahovic.

Yes, those are excellent points and I am sure that our scouts will absolutely take this into consideration and not be fooled by a simple 'goals scored' column. If City decide to go for him, it will be based on what they see in his general play, as much as his finishing, as well as as his potential to develop his game as he's obviously still very young.

I would like to stress that he has the looks of a quality player, but it's important to put those 'record numbers' into context.

I think January will be make or break, either one of Haaland or Vlahovic.

Given the suppose release clause kicking in as well as the rule change on agents fee's I suspect Haaland will be off, just a question of who he wants to play for.

 

[AlanBalls]

I have a gut feeling that Pep is planning to play a 4-4-2 formation starting from next season. This would mean us selling Torres in Jan and buying Vlahovic as a replacement for a similar price and also buying Haaland in the summer. I guess only time will tell

What on Earth has given you the feeling that Pep Guardiola, who’s played several variations of a 4-3-3 since the day he started in management, is going to buy two strikers and go to a 4-4-2?

My intestines inform me that Pep has been sneakily re-introducing the WM formation and is just copying Hebert Chapman.

This will be fully realised when he abandons the pretence that he actually plays two full-backs by moving one into midfield full time.

Haaland's release clause doesn't kick in in january. That was always fantasy and pretty much been confirmed, by Dortmund's own ceo. The rule change is also fantasy tbf.

Vlahovic may well move in January, for the right money, Fiorentina seem quite open to that

I mean if the other option is playing on wednesday night in european competition with elite vs just maybe thursday night fighting with mid table teams.
State of the art facility under best coach and hardware vs shrinking Leonardo Dicaprio.

I know which one I’ll pick.

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

I will be amazed if we sign either Haaland or Vlahovic in January or August

You serious? How many windows are we expected to not go and buy a striker? Wasn't last proper ST we purchased Gabriel Jesus and that was in 2017?

He’s just watched Mike Bassett:England Manager and has disowned Cruyff and all his principles as a result.
