Who started the ridiculous notion that City were better without Haaland ?

[Gorton_Tubster]

I think if I remember it was an ex Arsenal player maybe Martin Keown

It was across the board. Around March or February when they were getting excited about arsenal winning the title.

I think they're was some single statistic where odegaard was marginally better than kdb.

Kevin De Bruyne vs Martin Odegaard: Jamie Redknapp believes Arsenal midfielder is better than Man City playmaker this season

Premier League elite midfielders Kevin De Bruyne and Martin Odegaard compared; both playmakers have 16 goal involvements in the Premier League this season; De Bruyne has been left out of the starting XI for five league games this term; first time Odegaard has hit double digits for goals

Either way, I'm sure we all agree Liverpool got the better deal with Darwen Nunez.
He has a Community Shield winners medal. What the fuck has Haaland won?

Exactly!
He could be our Harry Kane!!




Hahahahaha......

Jamie Caragher stated that Haaland chose the wrong club.

People on here have said it. A lot of them also said we were better without De Bruyne...

think that chat stemmed from our poor spell around December/January.

During the period we were figuring out how to play with him and him with us, we were clearly a much better side without him.

Now that it’s clicked, particularly between him and Kev and him and Jack, that can be firmly tucked up in bed.

It is a British disease that when things are clearly going well for someone, exposing how it may all turn to shit, or why it is still not as good as some relic of the past, is lauded as new insight. Now we have Twitter experts as well as our utterly myopic media friends, the amount of new insight, and bullshit, is overwhelming.

Spot on. Although he was banging goals in, most games there were times he was a total passenger as both sides tried to learn each others game. Now he's a lot more involved and getting better every game.

Pretty much this. Personally I thought it would take longer than it has for us to click as well as we have done, thought it was going to be next season (and I still think we have a notch or two to go to even above where we are now).

These things age well.

I genuinely love how the media, analysts (who have won so much in their life) all try to justify their knowledge versus reality...
