Erling Haaland

[blueparrot]

the point I was making is the onus is on us to attract him...not the other way around...when you are one fo the best in the world at your trade then we have to go get him...he wont just come to us when there are others as just as attractive.

Okay, but we will have alternatives if and will be just fine with any of those alternatives. As we always are.

Not really. If you don’t watch us and want to be a part of it then it says more about the player: they may get offered more money elsewhere or sold a “project” but if your motivation is purely football then it’s the easiest decision ever

@93.20blue Spill the beans please, reports are saying we are going for Vlahovic and not Haaland.

mate you need to stop

58.8% pass completion/13 times possession lost today. He's still a much bigger project than some on here seem to think.

I think there's options that would work out just fine for out there for far less.

I'd love Pep to work his magic what with his City connection, but Kane (as much as I hate to say it) is a better fit/option, but just not for 160 million.

Right in the middle is the guy from Florentina.


I doubt we'll get any one in before the summer.

We had NO alternative to Kane...

We had NO alternative to Kane...

Yes we did, the best available alternative to Kane was to go with what we had, that seems to be working out okay so far. The alternative to Haaland would more likely be a different player. Again it would be okay.

So our alternative to Kane was.... no one?

Exactly!!

We didn't do an alternative, it was him or no one.

But we clearly didn't, we went balls deep for Kane and got fecked about at the eleventh hour....We had no choice but to start the league with only one recognised striker.

Fingers crossed that we have alternative to plan "A" this time.

The only available striker we thought made the team better was Kane at a certain price , as we didn’t get Kane the best alternative was what we had. We could wait until the 11th hour because their was no alternative we thought made us better.
I don’t know who we will target next, I don’t know whether the alternative to whoever we target will be another player that is available or stick with what we have. I suspect it will be another player.
I do know we have the best people making the decision so don’t stress about it.

Still don’t think we have the nuts to complete a deal for haaland unfortunately as it’s well known we tend to go for players who only want us? Haaland and his team will have the choice of all the top clubs and the wages and commissions on offer from others will no doubt by higher than our biggest offer?! I do think the Haaland camp think about the money as much if not more than the sporting project. Hope I’m wrong though and we’ve timed our run at him properly.
