Welcome Erling Haaland | Signing confirmed on a 5 year deal

There will be a similar unveiling with him in a few years :-)

My one and only concern is him being involved in the yearly injury crisis we get!

Would love an uninterrupted season with this guy firing them in, supported by a full strength Midfield... Wouldn't be fair!

Deano never worry about

Phil is 53 days older than Erling.

They could play together for a decade or more.

that sounds perfect

Could they have not posted this afew days ago ffs have we kept the receipt?!?

They posted it a month ago - I think it was in response to an article with a headline saying he was better than Messi and Ronaldo at 21.

The thought of Haaland and Foden in tandem is really starting to get the juices flowing.
Got a feeling they are going to bounce off each other.

Just City pissing on the dippers parade again....You sign Nunez we sign Erling LOL.

Yes but it was a much bigger parade than ours.

It was after the deal had gone through. They probably read the previous half dozen articles on The Athletic saying he was the best young player in the world ;)

#riverplate twitter is impressed City bought a solid back-up for Julian Alvarez

The journalists are really struggling to find an angle to attack us on this signing.

They wanted to say it was us buying the league but they can’t because we got a bargain in the fee.

They wanted to call him a mercenary but they can’t because there’s literal pictures of him in a City kit as a kid and he’s said he’s a City fan and wanted to follow in his dads footsteps.

They wanted to say we blew other clubs out the water but we didn’t as Madrid offered him equal terms and he turned them down and the wages are in line with other players at the club.

And so now the last resort is that he doesn’t fit the style of play and the Premier League is this super duper league where he will fail. And that argument will soon be shut down as well when he’s banging in the goals.

It’s actually pathetic how they can’t just say well done City that’s a cracking bit of business you’ve done there.

Superb post mate. It's pathetic how the media are covering this. But fuck em cis haters are gonna hate and their pain is a joy to behold. CTWD.
