If we signed him he'd obviously be first choice.

What I'm saying is I'd prefer to sign Haaland or Vlahovic due to their age.

Cant’t see it myself, he’ll be looking for a 3 year contract and doubt we would offer a 34 year old 3 years, and can’t see us looking at a short term term striker either.

Yep. As good as he truly is, would he be so outrageously effective working in small spaces against low block teams in a league as seriously competitive as the Premier - the same could be asked of Haaland but, in Lewa’s case, especially at 35 or 36yo?

Also, even if he could bag plenty of goals himself, would catering for him be detrimental to the overall team performance?

We have a league winning machine that does what it does with fluid interchange in attack and without an out & out striker. IMO we need to be very careful as to what we add into such a successful recipe as we wouldn’t want to spoil the dish.

Personally, I’ll leave the decision to Pep the chef and be happy with what’s served.

Wow. Insightful stuff from this guy!

It's going to be the summer if big striker moves. He would not be our first choice but if we don't get any of the other big names then why not.

I think we might end up with Alvarez from what from what i've heard. Caution ITK BS!!!

Heard he goes missing without a trace in matches !

We could have Johnson and Johnson on each wing and play him up front in a 4-3-3

I happy to leave it to the club, and as a last choice, maybe, but I’d be surprised if the club would, and as they’ve shown they are happy to go without rather than take a short term view to a signing.

If we've gotta deal with Raiola anyway, might as well triple up on his clients.

Haaland, Gravenberch & Wijndal in the summer.. Ta

There was a segment in the article saying City did want to improve their relationship with Raiola. Could happen

I think the midfielder will be Zakaria ....available on a free ....add Haaland and Theo Hernandez ....job done
