Erling Haaland

[waspish]

Yeah if Chelsea, having spent 100m on lukaku, on top of the other attacking players thay have, won't rule themselves out of trying to sign Haaland once he is on the market, how naive do you habe to be to think Real Madrid wouldn't try it! Despite their feeble attempts at dampening that speculation, they will try. It would be irresponsible of them not to.

Net spend they spent less than us they recouped the fee of Lukaku and more.

The pressure he had at Barcelona, with enemies inside the club, with its politics, and in the local media going after him every day, is nothing compared to what he has here. And the PL now is even more appealing than La Liga then. He knows this is the place to be

The product line coming out of the EDS is helping (my theory) he always seems to engage and be more animated when he is teaching the youngsters coming through. Big part of his love of coaching i think. Foden, Palmer, McAtee, Garcia, etc all seem to ignite a fire in him when he talks about teaching them

It's likely a debate to be rendered moot.

If Haaland agrees to join City next year, Pep will be here for at least another five years.

He will know there are some serious swings at a couple of Champions League wins.

If we do sign Haaland, i can't see why Pep would want to go anywhere else.
We would have a brilliant, young squad and it must make him salivate, looking around and thinking on how good we could be.
He would know that in the next 5 plus years we would be the team to beat and i don't think there's a team out there, bar RM, Bayern and PSG who could compete, and he won't go to any of them.
He is in his prime and obviously loves to be involved every day, so i don't think a move to a national team job is where he would go next.
So signing an extension would make the most sense imo.

It's all down to you Erling...come on lad, you know it makes sense!

Did they? Our net spend was 30m odd. I honestly don't know what theirs is but I don't remember them selling over 100m on players.

Wasn't really my point though.

Chelsea wanted him in the summer but were put off by his wage demands and the whole package of how much it would cost to sign Haaland now if he does sign with Puma that adds another obstacle to Chelsea being able to sign him. It’s why they went for Lukaku,

Madrid want Mbappe there was also a case where they wanted both Haaland and Mbappe, but some Madrid journalists who are top tier have started to feed out into the press that Madrid are distancing themselves from a Haaland deal due to the costs involved. There are some Madrid fans and sites that were saying that Haalands ”demands” are ridiculous. Wage wise and contract wise Also that Mino is asking way way to much.

City are an anomaly in any Haaland deal. We don’t have a striker, Agueros wages are off the wage bill also any bonuses that were in Agueros contract. We also just signed a massive deal with Puma, who are desperate for Haaland to be their poster boy. The chairman of Puma is very good friends with Haalands family so much that he helped facilitate Haalands move to Dortmund. Now who’s saying that he doesn’t do the same again, the Puma poster boy playing at one of the biggest clubs with the Puma kit it’s money from a business point of view. For everyone involved. There’s also a Norwegian reporter/Journalist that has said Haaland wants to play in the premier league. It’s adding up to City having a huge advantage over other clubs for Haaland.

I also don’t think we will have a problem giving the boy what he wants. As Haaland is seen as the next massive superstar.

I agree, it seems that way. Because we want it to.

Great plan. I'm sure there's no way that the Sporting Director or Chairman or other members of the board could possibly find out the real injury status of one of our players.

some people just make it up as they go along.

Let’s not forget the links to City as well, member of a supporters group, wearing kits and his Dad being an ex blue. This should all surely help him make his mind up!
