Erling Haaland

[yerwot?]

Eddie ? cant get more unexpected than that, most of the squad has had speculation on their future, but not him...

 

[AlanBalls]

Even with Haaland and Alverez coming in surely we can't afford to lose both of them? If we did we wouldn't have many options

Maybe plans for Palmer and McAtee. Pep loves Edozie too.

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Not sure the club will want anything official said, printed etc until the current season is finished

 

[JewelZee]

How the bloody hell did ye read that lol

C'mon man...English is a modern Germanic language, LOL...

 

[PepGuardiola]

Nothing will announce before CL final

If Kane had a buyout, he would be a City player

Possibly, but we will never know. What I do know is exactly the same things were said about Kane being a done deal as Haaland. And there have been other occasions with other players. The Internet is awash with so called ITKs.

Put it simple if it was done and signed then we would all know about it. Until then it isn't done.

I go back a long way with Rodney. Great bloke.

I knew you were Twinkle toes Gary Owen!

This revisionism I would say is incorrect. I don’t remember the sense of people thinking Kane was ever done. I remember instead months of stories and narratives about Levy not taking calls, not accepting offers, even the ITKs in this forum later on the transfer window saying there disputes about things such as shirt number, contract details etc. We had at least one Spurs fan who joined the forum and wrote a couple of long posts about what their own ITKs were saying. The sense of there being many impediments was present in the media and in this forum, that’s my recollection; what we had was the feeling that he wanted to come and that Pep wanted him. It’s a completely different story now

I recall:

City wanting Kane.

Kane wanting City.

Personal terms agreed.

Levi quoting £160m or fuck off.

City offering to £120-£130m.

Levi saying "Are you deaf? £160m or fuck off!"

City telling Kane it's gonna have to be a transfer request.

Kane not wanting to tarnish his Spurs legacy so not sending the letter.

Transfer window closes.

Kane remains a Spurs player.

City play the 2021/22 season striker-less.

That's my recollection )(

Pretty much. He just loves to talk to people and will sometimes hear something, but he's only tapping in to the overall vibe.

At this stage, even Rodney isn't exactly on shaky ground.

Haaland is ours.

That's all well and good but what news about Haarland?
