Erling Haaland

[tolmie's hairdoo]

If we thought we had him at any point, we are incredibly naive. And if they really don't want to roll withntopntargets speaking to other clubs, theynare even more naive.

I doibt either is entirely true, the huys wouldn't be where they are if they had such a poetic and profound philosophy.

It's because we aren't naive, we already know our priority.

Will definitely be a bit gutted inside of we get Kane but Chelsea get Haaland

It's not naive in terms of they want players who are committed to coming here.

We have shown plenty of times that we walk away if it's not the right smell for us.

I suspect City don't want to be dragging out this window for a number nine because it absolutely has to happen.

Two world class strikers on the market, it would be amateurish to find out you aren't the destination of choice, being forced to pay well over the odds by the other club, knowing backed into a corner.

True, but to stand up and walk away, when the fact of the matter is there is some mutual interest and the player does have some interest in coming here but wants to hear other offers, is very stubborn.

Especially when you're not up against the clock for your second choice because he won't be even available to sign till after the Euros.

If I recall correctly De Bruyne had other offers from Paris and Bayern he was mulling over as well as ours, We ended up getting that deal done, and it has served us very very well.

Imagine we walked away because he wasn't fully committed because there were other intriguing offers.

Let's revisit at the end of the summer.

Or sooner obviously, if we land our target earlier.

We have without fail, failed to strengthen meaningfully from a winning position. Every time.

And despite Khaldo claiming otherwise, this may be yet another one. And for me that includes signing Kane while Haaland goes to Chelsea.

I read the whole thing, you're still an idiot for thinking you know these 2 men and aren't just a spectator who sees 1% of their life and relationship.

They worked together for 5 years. Worked hard, we know both put a lot of effort into getting Aguero to fit Peps system and both won a lot of trophies together. It would be surprising if they weren't emotional when they go their separate ways, but Peps got a job and Aguero isn't fit enough to be the undisputed number 1 any more.

Can you go a whole post without calling people names , go on try it , then we can talk

Treated him badly, Tears don’t wash!
my word you dramatise stuff
Pep is the best manager in the world and He couldn’t rely on him
He ain’t gonna go through another season without a top striker

Watch him stay fit and banging them in at barca

 

[kaz7]

the tears for me was the difficult decision he had to make knowing he is a city legend!

Ok i will give him that

You cannot show your immense wealth of knowledge without name calling

really dont like this "if theres competition we are out" attitude. if we are talking about naive this is just as naive.

i understand that we do not know everything thats going on behind the scenes but one could say we are not as commited also.
