Erling Haaland

[Fred_Quimby]

I want us to sign him
I think we should sign him
I think he would join us if we paid the fee

however, I don’t think he’ll sign because;
I don’t think we’ll pay the agents fee
I don’t think we’ll pay the wages

the club seem to take the view if they pay massive agents fee and wages required for these superstar signings it will lead to us paying more for every signing in future, sets a benchmark

Not forgetting - unsettling the super stars we already have.

Its an estimated 500m over a 5yr contract, all in for Erling. God knows where you go from their in negotiation upon renewal.

Utter bull! Done this before but here goes again

67m buyout
Agent 20m
Dad 20m
Haaland 20m
Wages says it is a 1m a week 260m over five years

Total 387m

Is eckner a reliable source ? Just curious because it seems many people have heard of him before. Personally never heard of him till he started the haaland rumors.

Never heard of him, but the times is one of the more reliable papers out there, which leads me to think there may be something in this, Look's like some people in Norway are talking as if he wants to come here as well.

Didn't we have an ITK say back in late August we had a deal wrapped up to bring him here in January?

So yeah, the estimated figures from the move this summer are about the same.

150 transfer fee and the ongoing Riola 6m a year being the difference. You're still looking at 75-100m a year most likely to have him at the club.

Ha it is but that’s just how I feel.

We’ll have to agree to disagree then that we’ve traditionally had ‘great’ LBs.

OK I’ll go with some great LB’s
Glyn Pardoe
Willie Donachie
Kolorov
Clichy
Terry Phelan
In that order ;-))

Newcastle have the advantage of studying the map of Chelsea and City. They can choose what these clubs did well and avoid the bad.

We had Chelsea to learn from and still bought Santa Cruz!

 

[Utter bobbins]

Newcastle are also sponsored by puma..... ha! ;)

Castore

Right. That’s it. I’m starting to get my hopes up and it’s only taken a couple of randomly-sourced tweets about talks in January. What a bellend I am.

You had me @TonyM 's off-the-cuff gut feeling positivity.

 

[Coatigan]

What about this Haarland guy though? Are we buying both him AND Haaland?

FFS. It is not Haarland. It is Harland.

If you are happy with the content of the claim they are reliable. If not, they are total chancers.

No its not, its Harrland

We’ll be in trouble for going off topic but Clichy and Kolarov are just ok left backs. They certainly were not great left backs. Phelan had pace but apart from his goal v Spurs did he do much else for us? He certainly was nippy but once again was he great? No.
Pardoe and Donachie I won’t argue with as they are before my time but I think your list alone proves my point we have always had shite to average left backs ha!

We’re probably a day or two from the Madrid media publishing a “we have a deal” and “he wants RM” story in reaction to the reports about us, it’s so predictable, no Madrid fan buys it, but people here will overreact nonetheless

 

[bluebanana83]

^ can you please keep it on topic lads. ;-)

No Dissa??

Him on the left and Andy Hill on the Right was magical

They’ll be getting Mbappe. Could they get Haaland as well? Unlikely I’d think

 

[Sir peace frog]

His father must want his son atleast playing for his club for a few years, i don't expect haaland to be like Foden that loves the club or any kind of loyalty to the club.

His idol is Ibrahimovic so i reckon his career will be like him as well. Always moving club to club for few years, creating his own legacy withour any loyalty to any club.

his idol when he was young is michu, him of swansea fame

 

[thepolarbear]

I'm afraid we need to go all out on this one. Whatever it takes. He could make bigger impact than Messi at Barca. He already has at Dortmund vs what Messi done at same age.
