Erling Haaland

[razman]

I think Pep will really show his ruthless streak this summer by offloading Sergio and possibly Raheem to buy Haaland. We will also probably buy another attacking midfielder (perhaps Grealish) to support the attack. Imagine Haaland with Foden, KDB, Gundo, Grealish, Mahrez, supplying the bullets for him. Haaland knows that Pep (and only Pep) can take him to the next level. The great thing about City these days is that we never stand still.

With the HG Factor, I see Raz staying. Hopefully his form improves.

Can see someone like mahrez leaving along side Aguero.

Mahrez has been in great form and hopefully ends the season on his best form for us. Always, felt he never felt at home - think now that Qatar and Abu Dhabi relations have been restored - can see him going to PSG

He will leave this summer.
Dortmund will want £100 million and not the £60 million buy out clause next season.

That post was from Feb 2020 (ie a month after he signed for Dortmund to be fair and he wasn’t wrong)

Edit. I see others have already said the above.

Raiola’s MO is to have everyone supposedly interested. When Poggy went to the rags Madrid were supposed to be bidding too. Except they weren’t by all accounts. Just Mino games.

Haaland won’t go to Spain IMO. It’s between us and Chelsea for him.

They aren't only leaking their interest, they have journalists saying "Haaland wants to join Madrid", "Haaland wants to play for Zidane" and more.

Surely we'd be favourites then? Taking the no.10 as Kun's successor for a club he had affinity as a child must be more appealing than competing with Werner and Tammy?

IMO we are clear favorites right now. Pep + the club he grew up having an affinity got + best team in England currently. It’s a no brainer.

They say that with every player, those journalists aren't mentally capable of entertaining the thought that someone might have a preference other than Madrid. Just like the rag and dipper sycophants here.

That IS true. But Real Madrid are always, Always a draw for top forwards, specially young ones.

While i do think it is a bit agent games and hopeful punts by their media, particularly as Mbappe is more their end gsme supposedly, i just wouldn't dismiss it off hand.

Neither would I rule out a persistent Chelsea if they throw everything at it, and continue this resurgent form to finish in the top4 and go far in the CL.


We have clear advantages and draws, and dare i say it, this is probably the first time (since hazard probably) that when it comes to a real top player everyone is after, that i feel the stars are just a bit aligned for us to sign him. If ever that feeling could be explained, this is it for me.

Lets hope that does translate into a real advantage.
