With Olmo, Pedri and Yamal we have enough bus specialists... Haaland would be pretty neat here. Whoever would prefer soemone like Zirkzee instead is downright - for the lack of a better word - retarded.

Haaland would be horrible here unless we want someone to score mostly against fodder.

Zirkzee's not talented enough. Joao Pedro I can potentially see doing very well for Barca.

What argument do you need? Haaland in any setup is better than the likes of Zirkzee. Period. We could just as well discuss the temperature at which water boils.

Like the setup of Bologna last season? Haaland would work well there huh?
zero football understanding...
Not surprised.
It's always like that with fanboys, who ape popular takes or slogans

I am sure Bologna would be devastated if they had to field Haaland :lol: Maybe they would finish 4th :lol:

Also hardly a fanboy, I don't give a flying fuck about Haaland.

No one in the entire world would pick Zirkzee over Haaland in any setup.
At one point the overwhelming goalscoring ability of Haaland outweights whatever Zirkzee does.

Haaland did score different type of goals and play a bit differently for Dortmund too.

What different type of goals did he score at Dortmund?

Haaland is in a serial winner team and scores a shit ton of goals. You can obviously criticize parts of his game, but damn, picking guys like Zirkzee over him is just being a football hipster.

Not the type of tap-ins he does for City waiting in the box for a one touch shot.

Again, no one choosing Zirkzee over Haaland.

You think so...
The benchmark is not BF and the opinions circulated in here...
And I am not talking about Zirkzee per se.
I have highlighted the type we need.

AGAIN: people like Haaland, who don't know if the inside of the ball is water or air, can't play for Barca.
We don't need to suffer through another failed big-money transfer for people here to see so

PS: BTW this 'idea' that Barca needs a ST like Haaland started with who else?
The brilliant mind of 'scout' Xavi Hernandez, for whom levers were pulled.
Make of that what you wish

Pep uses him in the most dominant team on the planet, but you worry he doesn't fit? His goalscoring is outrageous. Were you one of the guys that thought Alvarez would take his spot?
 

DonAK

I'm not saying Barca need a striker like Haaland.
Barca need a striker that is quick, makes runs in behind, helps by pressing and is proven to be a high volume goalscorer.

Not some hipster pick. You've basically described Gabriel Jesus who Man City upgraded from and Arsenal have been rumored into looking for an upgrade as well.

Pep changed his ways to accommodate him.
He has been changing a while before he came, but he changed even more drastically.

But, again: how much a success is he for City, when he scores lots against the Sunderlands and the Norwiches, but gets pocketed in all big games by likes of Rudiger, Militao, Skriniar ,etc?
