Erling Haaland

Probably BS. But that is what Salah is demanding and Ronaldo is on more (reportedly).

I wonder how his signing will be portrayed in the media?

a) A bargain £63m for one of the best strikers and hottest prospects in football.
b) £300m deal when factoring in fees, wages, blah blah blah. City splashing crazy money again.

It's always going to be B, until a few years down the road when those same people will act like they've been saying it was A all along, whilst struggling to look their co-host in the eye.

There's a huge amount of narrative people want mainlined straight into their system so they can cope with this and us in the short term. All that wishful thinking tends to fade away every year.

The list of footballers who cost £63m or more is hilarious. Lemar, James Rodriguez, Osimhen, Arthur, L. Hernandez, Kepa, N. Pepé, Lukaku twice, Maguire, Higuain, Hazard, Pogba, Dembele, Felix, Griezmann and Coutinho.

Fuck me, is that for real?

Edit…can’t be right, VVD off the top of my head would be in that list.

Sky Sports News reporting Haaland has told Dortmund he's leaving. Doesn't say who to though

 

[Tugay One Cup]

Call it off. I was hoping we'd spread it over the next decade.

BS likely. I think he will be around KDB but definitely that much more than him.

Sorry, that's not the full list, just the ones that made me laugh out loud
