Erling Haaland

[Shaelumstash]

At this point, you'd be wise to lower expectations a whole lot. I'm expecting Bernardo and possibly Laporte to leave, to finish the season 3rd or 4th (and a long way off 1st in terms of points), for Pep to not take up the +1 year and to lose to Arsenal at the weekend.

That’s the spirit

just realized mino raiola has one player at city. Philippe Sandler, the ghost player

We lost £120 million last financial year reported.The year just gone we had no fans, covid you may have heard of it. So there’s that. We will spend what we can afford to spend because we are well run it is really that simple.

How do the scum get away with amount of money they spend on transfers and wages?

 

[delkhouri]

I dont think it matters what we offer Dortmund or what they would be willing to accept….

If we want Haaland we have to fill raiola‘s pockets and make Haaland one of, if not the highest paid player in world football. Right now, Debruyne is our highest earner.. I just dont see us paying Haaland Double or more than what we pay DeBruyne

How do the scum get away with amount of money they spend on transfers and wages?

1. Dodgy offshore accounts
2. Good PR
3. Have the media up your arse(see 2)
4. Be part of the wankers that make the rules up

Yet still win fuckall!

He hasn’t “pumped money in” since 2014. We made £230m in prize money alone last season

I get why rags think that but City fans...

 

[not my fault!]

That’s exactly my point… I think some forget that though.

It wouldn’t have mattered if we signed Grealish or not. We were never paying Spurs £150m for Kane.

We’d have paid 100m/120m though. So if we’d have got both you’re talking about 220m plus two lots of wages. For 140/150m we could have got the player we actually needed desperately out of the 2. Big fan of Grealish but should of been a cherry on the cake signing not the first and only bloody one.

 

[Crush the Cartel]

I was one of those that was genuinely confident about Haaland. Everything was in our favour; a future Balon D'Or winner who had links to City in a position we desperately need. But the successive failures to bring any major star in highlights we lack what it takes. You constantly see these big clubs unsettle rival players, be aggressive in their pursuits and pretty much always land their man. We're seemingly obsessed with public perception when nobody will ever like us.

Preach, I have absolutely lost faith we can battle anyone for a world class player's signature for the foreseeable future. Hopefully Delap is a hidden gem that will shine with the opportunity he looks to be getting.

Now we have tied the other teams in knots,
They have either spent up, filled the striker roll.
That leaves us free for the big man Haaland,
This could be the most cunning plan ever.
