Happy Blue Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Haaland wants to follow in his dad's footsteps and play for Man City so let's hope he gets his wish. we could make do with Mbappe this summer instead of Kane and get Haaland signed up at Christmas for 65million ..if they was smart they would auction him off now and get at least double Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 With Sancho gone, you’d think they would be interested in a deal that saw both Hudson Odoi & Abraham + maybe 50m for Haaland. They could do a lot worse than that. Chelsea lads, would you do that deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk how they'd react to that but it seems like a poor deal to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both players and money would be tempting for me. Abraham is a safe bet to score goals in any team for me, and Hudson Odoi has bags of potential. Haaland is amazing, but if there is only Chelsea looking to jump the queue and get him this summer then you have to think long term. Either get two players and a good bit of cash this summer or next summer he leaves for a fraction of that. He’s never going to sign a new contract with a higher release clause.

Could be a lot of factors. From what I gather, Dortmund just want cash. (I agree that I too think Tammy would shine for them). That said, I’m pretty certain even our closest correspondents are in the dark on this. Who knows what’s going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The likelihood of selling this window is low, but if anyone has the money to get him now it's Chelsea. On a swap deal, they don't want Chelsea castoffs... even though we can all agree that Abraham is no typical castoff. The Athletic article put it perfectly... if Abraham is a fourth choice striker at Chelsea then why should Dortmund do them any favors? Dortmund still sees a window to a Bundesliga championship as long as they have Haaland, however small that reality may be. Without him it's a rebuild. Big money offer or fuck off.

Chelsea are fucking stupid for wanting to get rid of Abraham. Dortmund would hardly be doing them a favour, it would be taking advantage of their idiocy.

He's a modern day Darren Bent. All confidence, will go on goal scoring streaks followed by unconvincing goal drought performances. Give it a year or so he'll rock up at Villa or Wolves on big money and knock in around 10-12 goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think at Sunderland he was pretty popular among the fans. I've got a friend who's a big AC Milan fan though and he absolutely could not stand Borini and whenever I saw him play with AC Milan I thought he was pretty much the same exact player he was with us - just asked to do less in attack and to contribute more in defense. We signed him to be a striker/winger and he ended up having a bit of a "Dirk Kuyt" type career where he's more famous for playing out wide and having a great work ethic, rather than his goalscoring ability or flare from out wide... but I do think Borini only had a fraction of Kuyt's talent and work ethic. And I'm surprised Milan stuck with him for as long as they did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious as I don't want you coming back in a second saying you were trolling. Just curious how you know Haaland is only interested in City and Madrid? Do you know him personally mate I'd say there are about four or five genuine clubs he could choose from personally, I don't believe for a second City are a priority over the current European champions.

Just because someone's dad played for a club doesn't mean he'd choose them over some of footballs most elite clubs. That photo proves nothing either mate, granted I think you are a likely destination (only because of money) but to rule out other clubs is nonsense. What if we get Varane, Trippier, Sancho and maybe even Rice. Challenge for the title, Haaland could look it and think United are on another stratosphere to City in terms of size and they are nearly there title wise. Or he could think Chelsea win trophies for fun, they are European champions, they are in London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but this has come direct from his father so make of that what you will ..also football is a business so anything can happen, i was saying City or Madrid is Halaands preferred destination Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
