    Yep like us they have neglected the midfield and haven't signed anyone since kovacic 3 years ago. I guess when Tuchel plays with a midfield 2 that they don't need a lot of numbers but with a couple of injuries their quality of midfield depth is similar to ours

    Yep, we've not made a good midfield signing since Gini so much for the fabled recruitment department

    Golden boot should be a foregone if he stays fit.

    You could well be right he just made his hattrick 3-0 now

    Salah better get his boots polished and start scoring to be in with a chance.

    DeBruyne not in the starting lineup for City

    That Haaland is a beast. He's strong, fast a great first touch and knows where the goal is. He gets assists as well

    £227m should be buying a handy player to be fair.

    The media will of course talk about the "bargain" of his transfer fee, but the alleged £17m to Raiola, £17m to his Dad, £500k-per-week....

    "It's a wonder nobody else was in for him at £51m" is something I hear from some fans.

    So too all that was saying....

    "Haaland won't fit into the system"

    "City might struggle not use to playing with a number 9"

    Well fuck me, give him the golden boot already mostly "easy goals" but in the right place constantly.

    maybe he'll be the first player in the prem for how long? to win the Ballon d'Or

    that Alvarez isn't half bad either, noone talks about him because of haaland but what a player

    fuck me they're sorted up top for years and years

    Bit strange as EPL has always been a top league, no?
