According to Sam Lee of The Athletic, City spoke to Haalands dad 2 weeks ago and the signing has been sanctioned by higher ups at City. The wheels are well in motion according to the article.

If that happens plus a new LB like Nuno Mendes and a CM like the article also states. Just hand over the title already for next season.
 
I'd say liverpool will have something to say about that.
I expect Liverpool's push next season to be insane, and thats where I'll be putting my money.
Liverpool will be closer but will need to stay injury free. Keep all there players and then seriously add if City get the likes of Haaland, Mendes and a top CM to start phasing out Gundogan. Playing on cheat mode lol

Yeah, thats not bad, totally gonna happen :LOL::LOL:

It’s amusingly ironic how the same nonsense being spewed all over the media/ SM about L’pool this season, was being said about City last.

A microcosm of the short memory, transient World we live in.
 
OOoh FFP Dead and safe standing seats being put in. not a bad news morning.
 
.....Also this move must mean striker and Haaland talks are continuing well.

Equally, it wouldn’t be a surprise at all if they signed no CF this summer the way the teams evolved to play without one. No coincidence Jesus has spent the majority of the year on the bench.

Thats bern Augero’s biggest problem since returning from injury. The team is not the one he was playing in pre-injury and he looks totally lost and no longer fits as they are now attuned to not playing with an out-and-out #9.

I would have Haaland ending up at City. Just not necessarily this summer given the current evolution thats working so well for Guardiola.

Out of 34 games Jesus was available, he spent 4 games on the bench. Or 69.8 minutes per game. In 16 games he played full 90 minutes. In 7 games he was used as a substitute.

11 games on the bench then. Less than I thought but still nigh on a third.

Plays into a big shift in style at City this year to playkng without an out-and-out number 9.
 
From what Sammy Lee was saying in a podcast with Ornstien and Honnegstien yesterday. City are looking at being clever in the market and don’t think Haaland is the top of there list for a str

@FabrizioRomano

Mino Raiola to The Athletic: “I don’t give a f*ck if I never do another player with Man Utd or Man City. I’m not in their hands. I’m independent. Guardiola? I’ve closed the book a long time ago on him. Everybody knows what I think of him personally; he can say what he thinks for me personally”.

Could be, Jesus played few games on the wing as well. Looks like Pep is bringing back false 9.

False 9 was just the best solution to the problem, Bernardo thrives in the RCM, Gundo in the LCM, made sense to play Kev there. An option we'll always have but we'd can easy revert to a striker if needed., even Haaland drifts alot off the left (which suits Kev/Bernardo/Cancelo in the right half space)
