Erling Haaland

Why they mentioning 100m when it’s 65m buyout unless there adding on the payment to his dad and agent.


Haaland buyout 65m
380k 5 years =98m
dad=20m
agent=20m
Total =203m a lot cheaper than I thought.

Mere peanuts. With oil prices going through the roof, Sheikhy bossman will have that made up by the time he has his chip barm tea this evening.


NB "Barm", not muffin. Thank you.

I thought we were the "bitters"? We can't have some horrid, Johhny Foreigner outfit usurping us. Get it sorted Pep.

Just like when we signed Gundo, they will conveniently forget that they themselves preyed on another club to sign Haaland in the first place.

Doubt it. If Madrid can't prise him away, then it's just not our type of deal. Release Clause FC.

Can’t get a much better release clause than a player being out of contract and free, tbf

Is Haaland available for Monday night? ;)

I'll not be confident until I see a picture on the City website of that big goal machine bastard sitting next to Txiki in a City shirt, signing a contract.

Is Haaland available for Monday night? ;)

Yes

But not for rainy Tuesday nights in Stoke - so all the salty rival fans will tell us anyway!

Was just smirking to myself and thinking exactly that. Pep constantly changes our game to suit the personnel. One tiny example from this season: cancelo now plays as basically a left winger who cuts inside. The back four become a three and pivot accross to cover him. The left attacking player plays infield 5-10 yards. This doesn’t happen on the right. He’s done it time and time again and that’s his genius. And people who don’t understand football tactics, even some of our own, fail to see that.

Why are magnificent and complex Manchester City dumbed down and dismissed?

Maybe it's me but I don't see Pep as a great fit for international football, what he asks from his players seems kind of complex as a number of players we have signed and the first year here seem to show and as an international manager you never get that much time with your players.
In terms of the Haaland deal, to me the timing seems to be more a nudge to other clubs to keep them in the market

totally agree, we've seen world class players take a year to get peps systems of play training day in day out , imagine some of the england players trying to learn peps way at international level it would take 10 years

Watched a Youtube video of KDB's magical passing followed by another of Haaland's finishes and that combination will be incredible if City make this happen.

Kev's assist rate will be through the roof! He creates so many good chances that get missed. Haaland has the speed strength and killer instinct to get on the end of and convert exactly these sort of balls in and around the 6 yard box.

Good article. Excuse my ignorance, but is that fan-written?
