Erling Haaland

[twosips]

Tall kids are normally good at headers because they get a lot of practice, it's easy if you've had a growth spurt and can get to every ball.

Haaland though was short until he was 15 and then grew 20cm/8 inches in 3 years. That's why people who coached him say his technique is so good, he was essentially Phil Foden sized all through youth football and had to play like it, and now he's 6ft 4.

Look at how small he is here compared to now. Mad. He's just average height here.

Never knew that, amazing. Escoecially after seeing the Molde vid below (or above).

Ok let's sign him

Closest he’ll get to a young Jamie vardy is if he’s shagging a bird called Rebekah from Yorkshire

Haha got a few with that one.

 

[Semper aggressus]

Can he score penalties?

 

[SPIDERBOY]

Mini Raiola will do everything possible for Erling Haaland to play for Barça. His signing is "affordable", as reported by Oriol Domenech

Mini eh?....sounds reliable.
On another note,don't forget to add Mino's slice.

 

[richards30]

We need this month to be honest! Imagine the impact he would make to the team?!

 

[SPIDERBOY]

what??

Someone compared the 2 on talkshite yesterday.

 

[SPIDERBOY]

We need a striker badly,this lad is the best.

Get him signed.

I agree,but won't happen in my opinion.
He will end up wherever Raiola can make the most money out of the deal....I don't see City getting involved.
Raiola will also try and move him on in another 3 years,just for another wedge....just opinion.

Not at all, he’s an incarnation of a young Alan shearer

Pre-ACL? I never saw Shearer at Southampton but Haaland is much quicker than late 90s Shearer.

If city rang his agent now how much do you reckon he would say it would cost us?

Just think now if we had the lad how much more of chance we would have at winning the lot?
How much that would bring the club.

It's not so much how much the quote is, depends who comes out top in the bidding war I think. That said, Erling has a choice of who he fancies joining. I hope we are in for him and he wants to sign for us whatever the price. I think it will take at least 120M to get him.
