Tomo 21,751 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 (edited) Honestly in the context of Pep's system I'd be a lot more worried if they signed Felix or went into the season with Alvarez as the forward (who from what I've seen is tailor made for a Pep false 9). Signing Haaland means they have to alter a (likely) back to back title winning formula and while he won't flop like Rom has done we have already demonstrated that the poacher to finish what is created logic is flawed at best. That said, he may be the difference that gets them over the line in Europe but I think week by week they may suffer a bit with the tactical changes required. Unfortunetly unless we have a spectacular summer window it would only suit Liverpool. Could actually see a RVN at United type situation here, is excellent individually and scores a lot of goals but still feels like a square peg.

He will hit the ground running and will scroe a bucket load of goals. One thing I know for sure is that De Bryune is about to double his assists tally next season.

chelsea_4_eva 1,182 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 (edited) Sorry to mention this, but do you think maybe he went with lower wages and fee because Mino Raiola is no longer in the picture? I remember he was asking for astronomical fee and wages last summer from us... Also I wonder if Harry Kane would be desperate enough to move to a rival if Spurs miss out on CL football... this summer could be his last chance to move Edited May 10, 2022 by chelsea_4_eva Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't doubt he'll score goals but will it be enough to counter what they will lose in fluidity, pressing etc? There's a very good reason Klopp hasn't brought an out and out 9 even when Firmino couldn't hit a barn door. I wasn't worried about present day CR7 going back to United for the same reason, he's been superb individually but look at where United are. Remember the game at The Bridge this season? The way they totally strangled us out of the game? They instantly lose that with Haaland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although when watching Dortmund vs City in the CL last season, he was lazy as fuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,993 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 As I’ve said before, City’s attack is already ridiculous so it’s hard to feel really scared about them adding Haaland. They already score more than anyone. Him going there is better than Liverpool or United getting him and genuinely taking them up a huge level. Still, it’s extremely embarrassing how much better run City are than us. Their recruitment makes our look amateurish. Fernando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
