I love how stumped the journalists are. They were all expecting to be able to say this cost us a squillion billion quid and how we’re ruining football and then it turns out we got a bargain and they have no idea what to say.

Even better - Mediah knob jockey Simon Stone says the fee isn't all payable at once...
Ha Ha Haaland Hey!

 

[shemnel]

Great stuff, is this our first 'megastar' signing?

Has he said City have picked up a £150m player for £51m?

No!
Thought as much

Yeah pretty much, but called it €60m

I can't honestly see that the club would have released that official statement, if there was even the slightest doubt about reaching agreement on personal terms. I'm guessing that's 90% agreed.

Yeah I'm just more curious as to what they meant. Is it just legal mumbo-jumbo that they have to say, or are there things that need sorting? And if so is it just random stuff?

Yeah since Gerry Creaney

I'll wait until I see that picture of him signing the contract and in a City shirt......

Apologies if already mentioned, but can he track back ;-)

Release clause being lower than what was speculated and wages being on par with top earner has sent haters in shock. They didn't expect this to happen.
Top statement making signing happy and we should celebrate this and be excited for next season

It's not official until Txiki's there in his colourful woollen jumper

If we win the PL this season get ready for mass influx of ex scouse Norwegians

Shouldn’t unsettle the squad either

 

[yeah whatever !!]

Just need to sort out what colour Bugatti Veyron he wants.

 

[crazyg]

Haaland Oats, maybe!?

I can't go for that.

I'd guess you're mildly content then at this moment?

I went to school with Stuart

He coached my lad in Seattle and was a real twat to him. No respect for Stuart Lee, the City bench warmer

 

[bennyboy]

For that price hope he is better

Apologies if already mentioned, but can he track back ;-)

No that would have cost us 52 million.
