Erling Haaland

[iniestaGOAT]

He knows hes been exposed.
Finished player.

He wil ffall with City

 

[TheStig]

He probably got a huge salary for accepting such a long contract which will help City with FFP like Chelsea did with all those long contracts. He will have a release clause in 2029 if he wants to try a different league but don't think there will be many top club suitors for him as he won't age well. I'm just glad now Laporta can't go all in on him in 2026.

 

[Andresito]

But why?

 

[draconifire]

Great stuff. We wont have to worry about Fatporta chasing this No-brain player whole summer long.

Hope this makes path for Gyokeres/Isak or someone good.

Edit: Scratch Isak. Would be very expensive. I dont think we can.

 

[Loki]

But why?

If he doesn't have an interest to play in Spain, I understand this move. He'll sign his retirement contract with 24 already. He'll have a stable life without moving, without worrying about injuries, without worrying his team ever be in a bad situation for long, since a state is sponsoring them and they will always buy themselves out of every sporting crisis as we see right now again.
In addition he'll be one of the best paid footballers guaranteed for the next decade and they probably hide the real value of the contract he'll get through some sponsor deals in Abu Dhabi.
It's obviusly disgusting, that Fifa and Uefa allow state ownership in the first place, but can't really blame him to sign this. Football is corrupt to the bone.

No-brain player

Hope this makes path for Gyokeres

Well that's contradictory......

 

[draconifire]

Well that's contradictory......

Nah.

Gyokeres is far better on the ball and technical than Halaand.

No-brain might be a hyperbole, but it mostly signifies player with less technical ability.

 

[fergus90]

Gyokeres has become majorly overrated. Seen plenty of him when he was at Coventry a couple years back to know you could cut his goal tally into a third outside of Portugal.

When that happens, he will then be called a donkey or whatever and the next striker in Portugal or wherever will be flavour of the month.

Good player don’t get me wrong but if a team splashes 80 mil or whatever and thinks they are getting 30 league goals from him, no chance.

 

[soul24rage]

Time to go for Santi Castro

 

[Temptation]

Nah.

Gyokeres is far better on the ball and technical than Halaand.

No-brain might be a hyperbole, but it mostly signifies player with less technical ability.

More than Haaland? Sure but still nothing to shout about technically. He's not Isak level in technical ability.

 

[Horatio]

Called it. Happy there. Always said wouldn’t see a Madrid move anytime soon. siu

 

[draconifire]

More than Haaland? Sure but still nothing to shout about technically. He's not Isak level in technical ability.

True. Isak is levels ahead of him technically, but also will cost significantly more. And Gyokeres is sound, like good enough.

And anyways I was comparing Gyokeres and Halaand.

 

[jamrock]

Bum behavior

 

[wisconsincule]

Wild contract. Sheesh.
