Erling Haaland

[I'm Blue]

That would give him another 6 years at a top club, that'll do!

If something goes tits up with Kane, we should be all over this kid and start talking to his team asap.

Sadly it’s looking like we’re paying up for Kane.
Pants down and arses in the air.

Paving the way for this kid to go to United next season is a mistake that will haunt us for awhile. In fact, even though Chelsea made a smarter signing with Lukaku than we will/would with Kane, they too are contributing with that.

Do you genuinely believe this?

You think Chelsea and City are "paving the way". Does it not speak volumes that two of the best clubs in the world have swerved this lad?
Madrid or Barca would probably be at the table as well but they haven't got a pot to piss in so probably says more about them as a footballing operation.

For me its clear he has already said what he wants to do and it doesnt involve City or Chelsea so we have both moved on.

Blows my mind that people think City and seemingly Chelsea are amateurs in this business and can't see what everyone here seems to think about Haaland.

Paul Moulden had the pace of Eric Garcia and had only played youth and reserve football before playing for City's first team. Who knows what level Haaland will peak at but he has excelled in the Bundesliga and scored loads of goals in the UCL.

You say that with the benefit of hindsight... When PM broke into the first team, we thought he'd be a world beater!

It was only a tongue in cheek comment!

As I say though... no matter what Haaland has achieved up to now, whoever signs him next will be taking a risk. It's the same with any new signings.

There's no certainty in football.

Who knows what will happen...? We may yet see Danny Ings or Gabriel Jesus win the golden boot this season.

Normally we would ask for pictures as proof.
We'll defer the request on this occasion.

PSG for me. Mbappe is off no matter what and they surely can't be left with a 35 year old Messi and a 31 year old Neymar as their options.

Doubt he'd go to PSG at his age. Messi early retirement is one thing, this would be something else

I've found our transfer window a little baffling to be honest.
For me this (Haaland) was the number 1 priority, not a 100m gamble on a player who 2 years ago was playing in the championship.
Sadly I can see the Rags getting a free run on him now next season
Very puzzling.

This. If the figures for Kane are to be believed why aren’t City testing out Dortmund’s resolve for Haaland at 10-15mm more? Not to say they aren’t privately but seems like they will go to end of window and this is still up in air.

Haaland only goes Utd if they’re competing. They could miss out on CL if dippers are back on it, Chelsea kick on and Leicester sustain improvement

And also if Spurs, nope can’t keep a straight face…

Hope you don’t celebrate his countless goals.
