Nor should it.... in a tight transfer window where few teams have cash it is better to spend it late and prevent the liquidity flowing through the market. I can only realistically see City and Chelsea investing from their own resources but once that money is pumped in it will be spent... I.e. Dortmund spend biggish on a Haarland replacement etc. Personally I’d leave it at least until preseason starts.
 
Throw everything we have at Haaland, beast of a player, great set up for the goal and anyone who can swat Dias to one side gets my vote.

Sam Lee did say something interesting recently about how inside info was almost impossible now due to Covid. Along the lines of simply not seeing enough people from the club in person, so you miss out on the casual questions/comments which are more unguarded.

There was something a couple of years ago where the Tories had a leak from a minister, and he was convinced he hadn't. Someone who used to be work as a journo at parliament said it's not unusual. She reckoned you guess a little info, then ask one person, and their body language/reaction gives you an idea if the story is true. Once you think it's true, you can go in with more confidence, and get even stronger reactions. She said that she'd had ministers coming to her and asking who leaked a story, and she'd be thinking "it was you!".

If he was basing what he said on casual comments in passing, and calling that inside info, that explains a lot.
 
There’s more chance of us signing Ronaldo than selling Sterling to raise funds for this.
Really strange that anybody thinks it’s plausible.

Can't help but think that you're overthinking the process ;)
 
he is a supreme finisher, but his contribution to the rest of the game is lacking, he isn't the complete player like gabby, but maybe he can develop into one.
 
surely with him being at ours last night any talks that are ilkely to happen with his agent/dad would have happened last night in some shape or form....I konw TH has already said that we apprached his agentdad a few months back (or maybe longer) but Im sure Txixi or whoever would have taken the opportunity to have a quick word with Mino/Alfie/Erling?

Yeah I don't understand it.

The club are never going to sell the player who has the most goal contributions for us every season for 4 seasons in a row, especially one so young still.

Regardless of anybody's opinion on him, no club is that stupid to sell a player like that.
 
I was just wondering watching Haaland and Mbpappe. Suppose we could get either one these two.

Delay is two years younger than Haaland. And pretty much the same kind of style as Haaland (not saying he is better)
Mbpappe is two years older than Haaland. And a different kind a player than Haaland.
If Delap is as highly rated as some say, would it be wise to go after Haaland? Or would we better off trying to get Mbpappe?
