Erling Haaland

[alexmcity]

Fjortoft may know better than some journalists for the simple reason that he probably talks to Haaland's father. Things are likely to get clearer over the next few days. We are probably favourites to sign Haaland anyway.

If the reported wage of £500k a week is true (which it won’t be) that would only make him the joint highest paid player in the league, alongside Ronaldo, would it not?

Since when have such things bothered any fans? We've always had players with varying degrees of intelligence. You're just attacking him because you have a personal dislike for him, most probably because he has a speech impediment.

Okay yeah sure just make shit up now? What the fuck. Fuck you.

Depends on the outlet. He's been rumoured at anywhere between 385-550k a week.

He’s an idiot for ever signing that contract. I don’t want players that thick around the club

So you’d rather have Shaka Hislop & Clarke Carlisle, just because they’re intelligent?

You do realise we’re a football club & not a team on University Challenge don’t you??

Nah I mean he was thick in the sense he let himself get tied down to a six year deal with no escape

He doesn't have to be playing every week for us, that's the beauty of it.

He's still growing, believe it or not.

He will also have his feet up during the World Cup, which will have a huge impact for next season.

Also, our medics seem to be top range in terms of niggly injuries. Aguero went from an unreliable injury-prone striker in the lead-up to Pep coming in to a guy who was there ready when called upon.

Like you said, mainly due to rotation but he himself also made comments about changing his diet etc.

No chance we put this outlay into Haaland without either 1. being unconcerned about his injury record or 2. knowing how to deal with them better than Dortmund have.

 

[MarsLlama]

They currently have a pretty good chance of winning everything, or a combination of trophies, unfortunately. Up to us to stop at least 2 of those left.

For another thread though.

If they have the best squad in the world and the best manager in the world they should be comfortably ahead of us in the league.

 

[skillman]

Him and Bellingham seem inseparable whenever I see Dortmund media. Interesting...

Charming. Not a very persuasive argument though, particularly when it's ok for you to make assumptions about Harry Kane's intelligence levels but not ok for people to make assumptions about why you dislike him. We all know, including you, why people assume Harry Kane is thick. Please don't try to pretend otherwise.
