Iccklecityitis rearing its head with some?

Reverse the question, would Madrid agree to sign him for three years?

Those who counter that is because he simply wants to play for Real Madrid, need to also ask why Madrid can't then just offer him a ten year deal and have done with it, making the overall cost peanuts as a result?

I feel like there a shift in the wind recently in regards to the figures mentioned. The narrative could be one of two things. One - Madrid have lost out and and telling everyone it’s because City are offering mental figures, or Two - Madrid are exaggerating the figures mentioned so they can be ‘players reject X amount to join the mighty Madrid’

Think this is my reading of it too. The Spanish are all talking about how City are offering unmatchable money.

You know, unmatchable by a club who are about to pay another player £600k a week. And were bidding £150m for a guy with 12 months left on his deal

Obviously he will make a great addition to our Squad.

I fear his Agent is already setting the Wheels in motion to screw us over though.

Haaland long term future is Madrid/Barcelona.It is well known he has already bought property there.

Meaning it will be just the 3 year contract with us.Then moving on to Spain.The hope being they will have the money then to sign him.

His agent will be setting a release clause that will not be Haaland true market value.So he can fuck us out of the true market value transfer fee due from Madrid/Barcelona.Keep it low, and convert the difference in to another mammoth Agent signing on fee.

That is what his Agent game will be for sure.

That would be correct IF anything you just said is remotely accurate, but it's literally nothing but speculation

I thought agent fees were being capped as of next season?

He's coming off 20+ goals in back to back seasons, why the fuck would he drop down to Brighton?

He got 21 in all competitions. He played 57 games.

In the league he played 37 and got 11 which included 2 against Sheffield United. He plays as a wide striker, that's a dogshit record. His goals per minute record put him behind Danny Welbeck last season and just in front of Robson Kanu in 38th place. That's also behind both Cavani and Greenwood.

I know several long term United season ticket holders and they think he's wank too. Maybe it's the 11 year old in them talking.
 
I recall coming back from the ground the day we signed Aguero and talksport had some experts on saying that Aguero would be back in Spain before the end of the summer and the reason he signed for City was he couldn't move directly across Madrid. Bottom line is you can only control what we can control, if we sign Haaland say for 12months its not like we lose out on the deal, chances are the release clause would be much higher, so 12 months on we have had use of one of the best players in the world and made money on the deal, so all in all a "bad" outcome with signing him actually isn't really that bad...

Big bad Real are going to come and poach him after 2 years. Anyone who mentions 3 years again should get banned for being a fanny wipe
