Something’s changed

Nothing has changed. Everyone knows that a player's first season at City is the 'settling in period'.

Just like David Silva and Jack Grealish, we have to accept that it's going to take a while for Erling Haaland to get going.

Let's give the lad a chance.

:-)
60 goals by May's end or the fucker is dead to me. Or something like that.
 
Listen folks. I think we need to dial it back and temper expectations. Sure, he’s scored 3 premier league hat-tricks and 2 last night, but palace, forest and the rags are beyond shite. It’s hardly an achievement. The rags didn’t even bother to try, instead picking an under 12 player to mark him. I’m reserving judgement until we play someone decent.
 
Tonight waiting for the game to start in the top of SS L3, the buzz from the people coming in especially the younger ones was all for Haaland, the only time I’ve seen fans like this was when Messi came into town for the few games he played against us. That change is Haaland, he is a World Superstar already, I also got the impression the typical City is disappearing, certainly from me, this lad has the capability to take us to the next level and beyond. Don’t get me wrong the last 10 years have been brilliant, but this lad, he’s brought something with him, I don’t want to get big headed as a City fan but there’s an air of invincibility about this team with him in it. I never thought anyone could be better than Aguero but by God this lad if he stays 5 years could out smash a lot of his records.

It was always coming that non league games where most tickets are unavailable would bring in those here for the success and high probability of us winning, haaland has just upped that level because of his global star status.

The measure is if we sell out a league cup game against the likes of reading because of him.

Part of me though is uneasy If people only buy tickets to see haaland and not city and have no interest in us otherwise, then do we really want that.

And with this kid in our team the stadium expansion needs to start right now , we will smash 60,000 each week very easily
That was going to be my next point, should we win the CL, I think with this lad and possibly Bellingham coming in the the North Stand should be done.

He’ll be our first Ballon D’Or winner. I obviously love City and going to games anyway but he just somehow elevates it by simply looking forward to watching him play.

Proper global superstar.

We win champs league he will win it 100%
 
I know what you mean, there’s definitely an air of expectation and excitement amongst the crowd. Erling comes across as such a nice lad too, often see him having a friendly chat with the opposition players - usually just before he destroys them!!
Well, stating the obvious here Ronaldo is the best goal scorer i’ve ever seen (nowhere near Messi as a player for me)and i thought the silly numbers those 2 got would never be beaten, not in my lifetime to quote the pisscan! It’s mental that whilst those 2 are still playing someone has come along who’s a serious threat to a lot of their records. Even more amazing he’s playing for us at 22.

My love for City could never dwindle but he’s certainly bringing the excitement back of watching us become a great team the first time around where it was all new and different with Aguero, Vinnie, Toure and David!
 
Without a doubt this lad is taking City to the next level. He’s becoming the biggest name in the football world before our very eyes.

Unstoppable in the air, hammer of a left foot, strong right foot, quick as lightning, strong as an ox, intelligent, unselfish, team player, perfect professional.

And he supported City as a boy and his dad played for City. I still can’t fucking believe what is happening before our very eyes. This is the stuff of fantasies.
All well and good, though apaaaaart from all of that, what has he ever done for us?
