I don't see him being happy if he isnt playing,even if he is in the match squad.He is fircely ambitious and he is clearly too good for EDS football,he wants first team regular football and in fairness he deserves it.
The problem....he isnt yet good enough for us,and he has no loyalty to City having not long been at the club.

I hope i'm miles off,but i see frustration and impatience ahead.

I get it, it’ll only highlight your concerns if we sign the old codger/Haaland or Mbappe, to name a few.
Hopefully he has a season or two to prove himself before he gets itchy feet.
 
To see him rock up at Chelsea would be pretty hard to stomach. He’s a cracking player who would be great at City. He’s in a different league to Kane.
Although he didn’t play amazingly against us in the champs league there were little moments that you could see his raw skill and pace. Our defenders at times looked petrified around him.
Would love it if he signed but looking increasingly like he won’t be unless somehow the stars align and he wants to come here.
 
Chelsea have a shed load (pun) of players out on loan, and in their squad, they could move on to help fund this move. Plus, with their success last season and FFP relaxation, they’re in a perfect position to “come over the top” on offers from almost anywhere.

Throw in the lure of London, living large in the big city as the new Big Man, and it’s clear City have their work cut out. Plus, Pep is a short timer and Tuchel just rocked up with a new contract, a clear vision and immediate success, so it looks like an amazing opportunity for Haaland. Tuchel knows him, and he knows Tuchel. Werner has been a bit of a flop, but still has economic value, and Haaland walks into a ready made team, top club, top manager, Oligarch owner, London lifestyle…

It writes itself!

It’s only the fact that his Dad played here and he has followed City since he was a kid that City can “offer” that Chelsea can’t.

Weigh those facts against each other for a young, soon to be gazillionaire, soccer player and it makes City’s efforts look rather mountainous to me.

Throw in his holiday pics (pajama outfits and all) and he doesn’t look like the “Cheshire set” to me!

I don't get this train of thought at all mate, Kane is a proven premiership goalscorer who scores more goals than Haaland.

The next best thing isn't always the next best thing, he could come to England and flop but if Kane came to city he would score even more goals IMO.
 
It’s not just his goal scoring it’s his all round play and his presence. I probably can’t verbalise properly what I mean but Haaland for me is different levels to Kane although that’s not to say I don’t rate Kane as I do think he will do well at city were he to sign I just feel Haaland is the one that would take us to a whole new level.

There’s no guarantees with Haaland, but for me there’s no guarantee with Kane either.
I personally don’t think he’s the right fit for us.
He’ll be joining a team that plays an entirely different way, at a much faster pace than he does now and against packed defences every week.
Add to that we share the goal scoring at City, players chip in from all over the pitch.
I don’t see him scoring more goals for us than he does now, probably less.
Both will score a lot of goals for us the way we play, but I think Haaland would be the better fit, better all round player.
Add to that he’s quicker, fitter, stronger and younger.
I don’t get why it seems we’re being priced out of Haaland, but Kane will cost around £130m+, probably £150m.
In terms of value for money long term it’s Haaland every day of the week.
Him rocking up at Chelsea would be a huge mistake by us.
