Erling Haaland

[meeesh]

If you’re a youngster you’ve got to be playing for the Chavs or Rags to get a call up

Fair point

Interestingly Txiki Begiristain was at the Liverpool game

Yeah and Pellegrini was contracted until 2017.

Point is, we shouldn't be basing potential future signings off what Pep would want when he probably won't be here in a year or two.

This is why we have a director of football. They make the decision with the manager. Although the manager has a big say we don't want to end up in a situation where we have to tear up the squad every time we change the manager.

Pellegrini was contracted until 2016 with the option for a further year, as everybody knew we were waiting for Pep. Totally different situation so a bit of a nonsensical comparison.

If we were successful for a length of time with a Norwegian up front, the rags & dippers would lose about 3 generations of future fans.

If he is genuinely good, it's a big bonus signing him just for the chance of that & ensuing comedy value.

That's actually a very good point, that would be hilarious.

The lad has history with OGS so more likely to pitch up at Old Trafford than The Etihad.

He would walk into their team at the moment (but would obviously have to give up Champions League football).

He'd want to hurry to it as OGS might not be there when he arrives

Not if he has any semblance of ambition.

And he has City in his blood from his dad! I doubt he gives a shit about solskjaer.

 

[jamesha]

But if he plays for the rags and does just ok he will be the new Denis Law/Cantona/Zlatan and will be worth £££££££££££ - just look at Rashford

 

[decmancity]

If we are going to revert to just crossing the ball in the box about 100 times when we are losing or drawing then we are going to need someone like this lad to have half a chance of getting on the end of one of them.
