A striker like him will undoubtedly useful in winning the CL where you are never going to control the entire game and its about decisiveness. In the PL which is 90 percent of our season he won't be of much improvement but in fact in some case make us worse because of the lack of versatility in his game. The perfect striker for us will be a 24 year old Harry Kane.
Surely it would be a 24 year old Aguero?
 
Done.

Second biggest/best news that will emerge in March.
That's a bold statement pal.

If your prediction transpires to be true then fair play. if not you will probably need to slink off back into oblivion, which is probably best to do to save embarrassment of being reminded if you were talking shite or not.

Cityleaks? Time will tell whether you're genuine or just leaking wind n' piss ; )

Not sure. We pretty much controlled all our CL games last year including against Dortmund & PSG. Yes they had some decent spells in both ties but that will always happen when the opposition is so strong. The only time we didn’t have control was in the final and we all know what happened in that game.
 
I'm inclined to agree with you but I think the move is better for Haaland than it is for us if that makes sense. I don't see us realistically scoring far more goals but I see Haaland scoring a greater proportion of our goals. It's Haaland's development, potential of winning trophies and individual honours which would be the biggest benefit of the move imo.

I think the biggest benefit of Haaland is that he could negate the inevitable drop off post Pep.
I personally would see us scoring more goals. There have been many games where the ball has ended up with someone in front of goal, who is not as clinical as Haaland, and we have squandered chances left, right and centre.

Up until mid December, we were languishing behind both Chelsea and Liverpool on goal difference, that was until we scored seventeen in three games to take us above them.

I think having a clinical striker will give us another string to our bow, our false nine set up is immense, but we can have a change in formation to improve us.
