Did I or did I not tell you that the next step in Madrid media was to go very specific with “information” just like this? It’s hilariously predictable
 
games like today show that we aren't just crying out for a finisher, we're also crying out for someone with good movement in the box. we're too static when the ball comes in, foden doesn't have the striker's instinct, it took 2 deflections to get a cross into him. how many of those low crosses did we even connect with?

The lower crosses were certainly best angle for us. We have great movement in the box It got the goal for us though we arent at fluid best. More effective than swinging it in 10ft high with 5"7 players watching it fly over their heads. Why we need a target man

The post from start to finish is full of things that are… incorrect (being nice here for the people who don’t like me)
Haaland’s “mentality and discipline” is precisely the kind Pep likes in his career. How is he any different from Lewandowski? He’s far less egocentric than Messi (and even other players in our current squad…). Saying Pep didn’t want Ronaldo and Messi himself… really, he knows that? Because we have other informations. Then the poster says Messi is one of the reasons he wanted to leave Barcelona — LOL, I refuse to even comment on this. No player (even Messi… let alone Haaland) would be bigger than him at our club today. But I participated in a talk last September (if I’m not mistaken) that Pep joined as a speaker for a Brazilian investment company, to talk about how he manages groups of people, and he said he likes big egos because he’s learned to take the best in those situations. A LOT of our players have BIG egos. The opinion some people have about what kind of personality Haaland must have is based on a single thing: having Raiola as an agent. That clearly triggers a number of prejudices in their heads. Also, it’s obviously not true that Haaland would be making five times more money than the rest of the players in his first year — like, this isn’t even REMOTELY true AT ALL lol. Ultimately we all have to accept that cliches and reductionisms are part of how celebrities are viewed, no matter how bizarrely false the assumptions are

Wouldn't have signed Grealish if he didn't like big egos. You're not going to find too many players more confident than Jack in his abilities. I don't know of any top strikers who don't have a big ego/self-confidence. It's expected with this position
 
In Spanish. Used Google translate. Some of the article. More from a Barcelona perspective.

The Dutch newspaper 'De Telegraaf' uncovered yesterday the meeting that a few days ago Joan Laporta, president of FC Barcelona, held in Monaco with Mino Raiola and which he attended accompanied by Jordi Cruyff, a member of the Barça technical secretariat.

As MD learned, after seeing Haaland's agent last summer in Barcelona and last December in Turin, Laporta wanted to take another step forward in the face of harassment from Manchester City and Real Madrid for also taking over the services of the young Norwegian forward, only 21 years old. Barça considers Haaland a fundamental piece for their project, not only in sports due to his enormous scoring contribution, but also because he would become the club's great media claim. Thinking about the new Camp Nou, which will increase its capacity to more than 100,000 seats, and about the new sponsorship and endorsement contracts, Barça is clear that having a player of the stature and the impact of Haaland would give a plus to all levels.

That is why, despite the enormous competition represented by Manchester City -which has forgotten about Harry Kane and is pushing hard for Haaland- and Real Madrid -which, faced with the real possibility that Mbappé could continue at PSG, is also increasing its commitment to the Norwegian-, Barça is willing to do anything to get hold of the current Borussia Dortmund striker. "We will fight as long as it takes," admit sources close to the president.

Not in the match squad again today, still injured. BVB’s medical team need the sack, he’s missed half the season.
