I keep on hearing that we pay Haaland £835k a week more than double what anyone else was prepared to pay, do people seriously believe this?
I know he is a top class player but really.
Lets assume that Madrid offered him £400k a week, he is a known City fan who had the chance to play for us, not only that but also to play under Pep and with a genuine chance of clearing up a serious amount of silverware over the next 5 years. With this in mind do people really think that we topped it up by another £435k on top just to make sure we got him.
And that's before we talk about the supposed £50 million signing on fee split between him and Alfie.
The same people then claim he will walk away from this to go and play for Madrid in a couple of years, almost like they can't decide which bullshit to believe.
The Haaland deal shows exactly the made up crap spouted by the media and the gullible idiots of other fans who read and believe such crap posted then re post it
We sold Torres in January for 55 million which is never mentioned, and bought Haaland for 51 Million.
All of a sudden it was like we paid the 1st ever agent fee in football, oh no said everyone bar City fans.
, if you add this and that and agent fees we paid around 200 million not 51 for him.
As usual his wages over his contract was added to the headlines, as if again any media "journalist" knows what we pay him.
Then a story came out that if we win everything and he hits all his bonuses, again by people who would not have any knowledge of a contract between him and City the laughable 900k a week was born.
And thats what the idiots think we pay him.
Just have to look at Rags for salaries like that with PR7 abd the likes or Salah 400k a week which of course was never mentioned or how much his new contract was worth over the contract extension.
As others have said, if found not guilty i hope the club hires investigators and gets some dirt on the hatefull 8/9.
Start with the Bebe Transfer which stank, why did the PL quietly drops some of its FFP rules over wage increases at a time Rags had a lot of contract renewals coming up and spending heavily in the market as a start
