Erling Haaland

[LangleyBlue1970]

Gone out to ‘Spoons for a couple of beers. Sat here smug as fuck about this signing. This takes us to the next level, infact it’s the top level. You don’t get anyone better than this, and I hate to use the word but this is a top-tier player we are buying.

Up the fookin Blues!!

Interesting article on Erling's deveopment:

I think marketing team would prefer it if he was smiling in the photo lol

Should have sold him to us last year then you fucker, pre-release clause.....thank fuck you're over there and we're over here.

Someone has, not sure if it is @Mr-Mertle though.

That cannot be right. Mooney said we are not treated any differently and we are paranoid. I guess that is expected from a cuck.

Has to be today surely?

Am i alone in wanting league won first. A little respect for the players who can actually play the next 3 games......

If the release clause is at the €63m as first reported last summer, at today's exchange rate it translates as £53.87m.

His Dad & Riola's company will reportedly get €20m each which is a total of £34.22m or £17.11m each at today's exchange rates.

If these figures are correct, Haaland to City will cost us £88.09m all in on a 5 year contract, on £375k per week in wages, plus bonuses.

For one of the top 5, top flight international strikers in the world, if it comes off it'll be the deal of the fuckin century!

It has been completely and utterly taken out of context.

Was just going to post the same, he hasn’t had a pop in the slightest, same journo rehash to meet the narrative

So, in summary, not in the top 20 of highest transfer fees and not even the highest paid player in Manchester, let alone the world. 'Unbelievable money' my arse!

The Sports Bible;

Manchester City 'Might Sell' Jack Grealish After £100 Million Transfer, According To Paul Merson.​

didn’t bother reading anymore than the headline.
Metson has spoken. We have to sell to finance the Haaland deal.
Apparently Jack’s a failure or some such.

When I saw this yesterday, alongside Collymore "imploring" KDB to quit City for The Dippers to save his career, like you say I read no further than the headlines.

They must have both fallen off the wagon & need to put their kegs & crackpipes down... :-/
