Erling Haaland

Telegraph with a story saying Haaland has rejected 28 million net per season contract from City.

It’s fake news. Spanish media literally did make this up.

The moment I read this tissue of transparent bullshit from Bingo this morning was the moment I knew for sure, 100%, that we had landed Haaland.

This is the start of the narrative the Dippers and their lackeys in the media will be putting out in the run up to the summer on a transfer that has absolutely fuck all to do with them.

When they broke the Transfer record for a defender with van Dyke, and for a keeper with Alisson - clearly it was ‘fun’ then. But now they’re very clearly on the outside looking in - he wants nothing to do with it.

Here’s an idea Bingo - if you want nothing to do with it, don’t fucking comment on it then you absolute helmet!

This is good news, Blues - we’ve got our man!

I agree fully with all of this, but a like does not suffice for the use of ‘helmet’ as a put down. Class.

I'm starting to get flashbacks of Kev's last few weeks at Wolfsburg.

I guess we'll know it's done when some German hack cons him into saying he's staying at Dortmund.

the longer it takes to be all but confirmed the more apprehensive i’m getting. just the pessimist in me though i think, logically i’m still on board

If it makes you feel better then I'd say this is the first time every bluemoon ITK and wannabe ITK has agreed on something.

You've obviously not been on the 'Manny' thread then. :-)

I absolutely don’t like the idea of waiting until the window is open to get signatures on paper, given our record for getting burned recently.

However, I can see why we need to wait. Imagine if we got it all wrapped up, did the whole PR thing, then on the last day of the season he tears his ACL? That would absolutely scupper the deal, but at that point we’d be stuck.

Manchester City's Potential Signing of Erling Haaland Could Impact Phil Foden's Contract Talks

Phil Foden agreed on an improved deal earlier in the season, but he may be in line to receive even more if Erling Haaland joins the club on bumper wages.

Any truth that Foden hasn’t signed because of impending Haaland arrival and his wages?

Obviously City would never let Foden leave but it made me think hypothetically…..

If you had to lose Phil to gain Erling would you do it?

I doubt I would, which says a lot about how good Foden is.

Interested to see what other posters would choose?
