Erling Haaland

he won man of the match there in caraboa cup final?

He did. But just can’t see him playing there on a regular basis. Anyway loads of options eh.

Sooner, or later, people will realise that our strength is having a squad of top-class players who work for the common good, and not for themselves. If we are lucky enough to get a player like Haaland, he will be a part of a front line that includes Grealish, Foden, Mahrez, KDB, Sterling, Bernardo, Delap and others. He won't play 70 games a season, but he will be an important part of a team that does.

Given the way we play I think of it as a front five with most of the players able to play in multiple positions. It is quite incredible:

Gundogan
Bernardo Silva
Kevin
Grealish
Foden
Mahrez
Raheem
Gabby J
Palmer
Delap
James McAtee
+
Haaland
Alvarez

Mouthwatering to say the least. Thats 13 for 5 positions without considering some more of the emerging youngsters. I think we may let one or two go if they want to.

Media meltdown when he signs. They were crying when we went after Kane and Jack. Kleenex at the ready.

New reports from Twitter saying haaland could be putting pen to paper by the end do next week for city. ITS HAPPENING BOYS ITS ACTUALLY HAPPENING.

Have to say I find it’s abit weird The Athetic are charging £6 a month or whatever and they haven’t had a story/tweet on what came out on Friday.

Confirmation, denial or just even a review of the situation.

That is by far his weakest position.

Anywhere ahead of the back four and he's still going to be one of the best on the pitch.

Imagine if we don't sign him? Tolmie will be strung up by his bollocks, poor Tolme : (

But i reckon I'll sell more fanny wipes on this thread than the match day thread; ) lol

agreed. Foden really is a generational talent in a world where that phase gets thrown around far too much!

 

[blueparrot]

Hasnt it been said phil prefers the right?

Think long term Foden will play centrally in midfield. Maybe not next year though.
