And that was the exact idea about it. To find (in this case invent) something negative about Haaland. Even fans of other clubs like him. He's the biggest name in world football right now. But the problem being is that he plays for City. So the idea was to trash him. The £900K a week lies has worked perfectly as you say it's now gospel. Therefore people / fans won't think he's that great to be paid that obscene amount of money. It's a agenda. Absolutely no doubt about it. It's planned and organised. One newspaper leads with an invented negative story and then the rest immediately pick up on it and reinforce it. Something similar was done with Fernandinho and 'tactical fouling'. It was put out there and then the rest of media picked up on it and went with it. When other teams did the same it was a 'clever foul' or the old chestnut: 'He took one for the team'. When City did it it was a 'tactical foul' and therefore cheating because City are cheats. FFP cheats. Footballing cheats. Underhand / backhander payment cheats. Crowd attendance cheats. Anything to tarnish and ruin our reputation because there is absolutely nothing they can tarnish or criticise our football about. So it's all the other stuff and it's constant. I've actually stopped giving a fuck. I really have. They are not spoiling our success for me. We are privileged to be watching the best footballing team on the planet right now. It is truly a genuine golden era for Manchester City as a club, team and set of fans. We may seriously not see the likes of what we see every weekend ever again. So as the man said: Drink it in! and don't let them get you down. This is how desperate they are now to try and diminish our achievements. It's the start of the end game for them and they know it and its that what hurts them and it I'm very glad to say it hurts them a lot. Fuck em!

The back pages of the Mail are no different to the front. Every article comes with a comments section and provocative headlines to harvest clicks, the rationale being to appeal to its core readership demographics wherever and whenever possible. As regards the front pages this means endless, grotesquely distorted, hate-pieces about Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, Jeremy Corbyn, Gary Lineker, 'lefties', public servants, teachers, Joe Biden, woke culture, 'remoaners', asylum seekers, Macron, the French, Benedict Cumberbatch and just about anyone else it can think of that will get its foaming, red faced readers all revved up. On the back pages, it seeks to appeal to United and Liverpool fans because they have far and away the biggest fanbases in this country, so provocative nonsense about City, a carefully cultivated enemy of both clubs, is always on the agenda, from Haaland's 'disgusting' wage packet, to 'net spend' graphs, to empty seats, to anything and everything it can think of to cast us in the role of 'no class' arrivistes and massage the egos of the rags and the dippers in the process

The latest attempt to make a successful and talented young man seem like a monster is to talk about his diet of heart and liver as if he’s Jeffrey Dahmer or someone

Think there is a slight flaw in your argument, Utd, Liverpool and Chelsea are all very wealthy, the guardian doesn't seem to hate them.

That's because a large chunk of the Guardian staff (and freelances) are London-based posh boys who like LFC or MUFC. I don't think Chelsea get much positive coverage anywhere though they are not slagged off as much as us.
