tbf at this point you can scrap the if/when entirely, the only thing left is the clubs actually announcing it or something must go somehow extremely wrong as both clubs agreed, the contract has been approved and the medicals have been completed
I can’t even be mad about this. Haaland was a man city fan as a kid when his dad played there… when they were bad. The fact he became world class as his dads club also became world class is just a dream come true.
This video showed up on my feed when he has scored back to back hat tricks just yesterday, hopefully the future will be even brighter for the striking viking.
Pep has changed from when he arrived at city first. He had problems with Aguero with his pressing and build up involvement, which Aguero adapted and became a key part of his team. But now after 2-3 seasons without him being a major part of his team, he is realizing the importance of a striker/player with a striker instinct. Why do you think city kept chasing Kane, Ronaldo and now Haaland? Pep's style change and adapt, and that's exactly what's happening right now.
@@gallonthegreat7036 I guess the problem with Ibra and Etoo was that they were established superstars and Pep was just a newly promoted B team coach, coaching the first team. No way those superstars would've listened to him as long as they scored goals. You see the superstars not listening to the coach all the time and that spreads in the dressing room.
As a Dortmund fan I am thankful for his service, but to be honest I am also kinda happy he is now gone, as the transfer talks and injuries didn't help the club.
I'm a new football fan from America and I've been following BvB. What do you think we need to do to get a solid replacement and improve overall for the next season?
@@whosaidthat84 adeymi will be good enough but not directly halaands replacement but we still need another st Our defence is now solid enough with sule and shotterbeck
@@whosaidthat84 I am not a dortmund fan but i do know enough about the club to determine what they need to do in order to get better. They have solid midfield but needs a striker and probably better defence. Erling Haaland will cost alot which means this can easly be fixed. The players won't have as goo quality but 4 decent players might actually be better in this case than one insane.
As a Leeds fan nothing recently is quite as upsetting as knowing this guy is a massive Leeds fan, has said his dream is to win the premier league with Leeds and that he was willing to join us while we were in the Championship but we just wouldn’t wouldn’t guarantee him minutes
I mean he was born in Leeds but he’s still a massive City fan aswell. He was at the Etihad in 2017 at a UCL group game and people on reddit found he was in Facebook fan group

I’m glad you give a balanced perspective of quality from both a numbers and eye-test perspective. There’s a lot of intangibles that make this guy so awesome too.
@Football Iconic I'm just going to say that I hate videos that cover new players that we can actually watch live on TV but yours here I thought it was phenomenal. All the data and extra work you put here really really shows and if I could give you a standing ovation I would. Fantastic work!
We haven't seem a player with these characteristics, since Zlatan when he was in the Ajax back in the day... i hope he keeps doing an amazing performance in the premier league (or where he ends up going) and becomes a legend of his generation, alongside players like Mbappe.
@@hawk992 I think he means very high physical attributes tied with powerful clinical finishing, Lewandowski is definitely the latter but he isn't as fast, strong, and tall as Haaland or Zlatan in their primes.
same here but i feel like Haaland is a whole new level to zlatan. Zlatan had skills but poor finishing as Fabio Capello mentioned at Juve. Haaland is instead like the second coming of Adriano the Emperor minus the skills. A player who is fast , tall, physical and is lethal infront of goals and shoots from both legs. The only thing adriano had over Haaland is skills and boy he was unplayable before depression happened.
@@omariblake21 I totally forgot about Adriano... that guy was an absolute monster in his prime... a real shame what happened to him. I would say that Zlatan always was a more playmaker striker with an insane ball control and skill rather than a clinical finisher, it wasn't after Capello gave him a few slaps and made him watch videos about how Van Basten played, that he became more of a finisher. But you are right with your description about Haaland, something like a Norway version of Adriano, minus the skills witht he ball, which he could develop with time and experience.
@@verbfrombonsai8852 Yep, nowdays seeing a striker that is over 1.90 meters tall with amazing speed and agility that is not just the tradional brute number 9 is very odd.
I think Liverpool with their recent signings will still put up a great fight with city. Haaland has also been injury prone this season and will maybe take some time to adapt but he would be insane at city
Liverpool will still challenge. Klopp extending and the likes of nunez and tchomeni potentially joining we'll be fine but haaland at city will obviously improve them
Personally I don't think he's city time of striker. Look at Sergio he was a great dribbler and passer along with shooting. He's more of a poacher. Haalands a true n9 he's more of a target man. Like pass me the ball and I will try and score.
The great thing about the striker less city is the fluidity of the whole team and their build-up. My only stress is that he cant really help in the build up only in the finishing. It can cause tactical issues but I'm sure pep would not do it without a plan.
Nah see you wouldn’t be wrong but he is probably one of the quickest adapters which will be key in his development at city so I mean he won’t be able to for a while but sooner or later he’ll adapt so well you won’t notice that possible deficiency
Also he does drop deep sometimes and helps in build up. While he is nowhere close to, lets say Firmino, with his build up play, he definitely isn't lax in that department. He knows how to help in build up and make the runs to open up a defence. I am also sure that under Pep he will develop that part of his game really well. Honestly it is almost terrifying to think about what he could be in 4 years.
Haaland and Alvarez in rotation and plethora of false 9s. He may not be good from 1st season itself as most aren't with pep but he'll get there. KDB has been assisting like a monster with in and out of sorts Aguero, sterling, Jesus at front, if haaland can be close to what we're imagining we're in for a ride and half. Good video nonetheless.
KDB of course will be a main provider, but people shouldn't forget Mahrez, Foden and Cancelo too lol, they are world-class providers, whether from set pieces or in play. Everyone in City is a good playmaker tbf, even couple of the EDS players like Palmer

being injury prone doesn't always equate to low efficiency, especially for a team as deep as city. Look at aguero for example. I just hope Haaland stays healthy though
I think that was a good small point that he’ll need an adjustment period. I honestly believe he won’t be good at city right away. But I’m sure in time he’ll be what we expect and more. This is very common with attackers who come to city

Not really. When Messi moved to PSG in the summer I thought he would tear the league apart. Look how that turned out. Yes, you can blame the manager but then again look at the quality of the French top division. Similarly, the Galacticos era at Real Madrid didn't live up to the hype. "The ball is round. The game lasts 90 minutes. Everything else is just theory."
Anything could happen, but the galacticos and Messi were all flash and no substance. If pep is interested in Haaland it’s because he sees use in him, and I think that’s where the difference lies. Pep is very much thinking ahead, but we will see
Messi is absolute shit in ligue 1 , u got tryhard Messi fans saying he has become more of a midfielder bla bla but they’re just blind he SUCKS rn and I’m a Messi fan
dortmund have seriously bad injury issues in general. city's facilities will be much better and will never force him back into the team straight away. we literally signed gundogan from dortmund while he was injured and look how he turned out
@@winter3410 I agree. City had few injury prone players actually. Gundogan was so injury prone and So was even Kevin de Bruyne who couldnt finish three straight season without an injury and even when they went all the way to the final of CL he was injured for like 6/7 weeks. Jesus as well at some point. Haaland will be fine at Man city.
on paper it's a great signing although I have my doubts considering how Guardiola managed to mess up an extremely similar signing back in his Barca days, of course im referring to none other than Zlatan Ibrahimovic
You should divide your videos into series. From legends to current greats to next generation players. Would give great organization for your channel as well :)
I am very happy since i am a man city fan. I mean we are already op right now, might be the best team in the world currently. And with Erling Haaland, we will be unstoppable.
@@ragnarlothbrok7973 currently it is the best city. Get some fkn knowledge about football kid. They’re gonna win the ucl just wait and you’ll see. Now off you go
I still think that the perfect fit for Man. City would be Harry Kane. A phenomenal striker, good playmaker, especially with long balls. But Haaland would also be insane.
@@phumelelesibiya71 he can play until he is 35 cuz he never had pace to begin with. Look at benzema, lewa they are all reaching their prime in their mid-30s

Here's a question. Since he will need to expend alot more energy pressing for City compared to Dortmund, will said tiredness affect his finishing ability?
naaa with City he won't need to run at full bursts on every counter like Dortmund he just has to be at the right place at the right time to finish things off or lure defenders away for others to score
@@corleone8659 Mate, have you seen the Man City press? It's one of the most intense press systems in football. Check out the KMs covered by the front 6 players in each game, it's always between 10-12 km
@@awfan221 yeah i get it City presses a lot but a strikers role is somewhat different remember when Aguero was there.. of course he'll drop and press nd but not too deeply he must still wait up top to launch attacks when the ball is won... so his role will be very different from the others ...besides that guy is a machine... stamina isn't an issue for him
Haaland is on track for a Ronaldo Fenomeno like career being a generational talent with a bucket list of injuries, regardless of where he's going next.
I know you’re a UTD fan, but with their (recent) track record of big singings flopping, I hope he goes anywhere but there. If erling can stay fit and gets partnered with a manager that can bring out the best in him and turn him into more than a pure scorer, we might have another generational talent on out hands to watch for the next 10-15 years. Probably not on the Messi level, but certainly top 10 of all time
I am an arsenal fan and at the start of the season I thought United were going to challenge for the title because of their transfer window. As you said you never know what is going to happen but city are different and I am truly scared of them and haaland.
While I appreciate what Pep has accomplished at Manchester City! Winning 4 Premier League Titles in 5 years. Along with several domestic Cups. To me Erling Haaland is the missing Champions League piece! A clinical striker who can score key goals, outside of Pep's system, in tight UCL ties. I also believe Haaland will emerge as a leader at Man City. His unique personality, confidence, & play on the pitch will allow him to lead by example. And the best part is Erling is a fan of Manchester City! Ntm that after selling Sterling, City will have roughly a 76 million dollar surplus in net spending for 2022. Despite signing Haaland, Alvarez, Phillips, & Ortega. Illustrates how Man City are just as good in the board room, as on the pitch! I can't wait to see Erling play in Man City blue! C'mon CI-TEH!!!🙌💙
Really enjoy your content man, keep it up! I have an idea for a future video: can you analyse ancelotti at bayern, considering that's the only club where the players didn't "like" him (because he's generally regarded as a brilliant man-manager).
Had to change the title from "If" to "When"...
Its set in stone he's going to City making this video slap even harder.
tbf at this point you can scrap the if/when entirely, the only thing left is the clubs actually announcing it or something must go somehow extremely wrong as both clubs agreed, the contract has been approved and the medicals have been completed
You deserve so many more views. This summary of Erling Haaland prior to his transfer to Man City is excellent, and has aged really well.

I don’t think people are talking enough about his injury issues. Obviously a top top player and talent but I think injuries could be a block for him
dortmund have seriously bad injury issues in general. city's facilities will be much better and will never force him back into the team straight away. we literally signed gundogan from dortmund while he was injured and look how he turned out
I agree with this which is why I'm scared for haaland sooo I really hope he can stay fit
@@winter3410 Gundogan got injured near the start of his city career though, PL teams will be aware of hallands injury issues and they will target them
@@winter3410 I agree. City had few injury prone players actually. Gundogan was so injury prone and So was even Kevin de Bruyne who couldnt finish three straight season without an injury and even when they went all the way to the final of CL he was injured for like 6/7 weeks. Jesus as well at some point. Haaland will be fine at Man city.
Well he will be comfortable knowing that City will still be favorites in every game, minus away to Liverpool at Anfield, even without him lol
Here's hoping this video isn't irrelevant 🙃 Cheers bro.. top content 🙌🏽
i would love to see a video on how good gabriel batistuta was. hes one of my all time favourite strikers
Great video mate
Great show greetings from Sweden
on paper it's a great signing although I have my doubts considering how Guardiola managed to mess up an extremely similar signing back in his Barca days, of course im referring to none other than Zlatan Ibrahimovic
Great content bro
It was reported but we cannot believe until we hear from Haaland himself of his decision of which club he wants to join.
yah he is joining manchester city
You should divide your videos into series. From legends to current greats to next generation players. Would give great organization for your channel as well :)
I am very happy since i am a man city fan. I mean we are already op right now, might be the best team in the world currently. And with Erling Haaland, we will be unstoppable.
Currently not the best team but yeah with haaland if it works out city will be pretty hard

Great job mate amazing bro👍
I still think that the perfect fit for Man. City would be Harry Kane. A phenomenal striker, good playmaker, especially with long balls. But Haaland would also be insane.
Tired of losing bëts on football games? Do what my name says. You will like what you see........🦇
He's 30 and would be a waste of money
@@phumelelesibiya71 he can play until he is 35 cuz he never had pace to begin with. Look at benzema, lewa they are all reaching their prime in their mid-30s
@@phumelelesibiya71 he’s 28 and moneys not an issue for city but there’s more time to develop Haaland than Harry
Harry Kane would be perfect for Chelsea...but that will never happen.
thx 4 letting us c u football iconic guy! And srry I diddnt exactly picture u lack!so srry to write that thats prolly cause u sound very intellegent in ur clips, but nice to have an aweful stereotype ruined! and luv ur footie clips! keep it up plz! hope u get paid a lot for it!
Here's a question. Since he will need to expend alot more energy pressing for City compared to Dortmund, will said tiredness affect his finishing ability?
naaa with City he won't need to run at full bursts on every counter like Dortmund he just has to be at the right place at the right time to finish things off or lure defenders away for others to score
@@corleone8659 Mate, have you seen the Man City press? It's one of the most intense press systems in football. Check out the KMs covered by the front 6 players in each game, it's always between 10-12 km
@@awfan221 yeah i get it City presses a lot but a strikers role is somewhat different remember when Aguero was there.. of course he'll drop and press nd but not too deeply he must still wait up top to launch attacks when the ball is won... so his role will be very different from the others ...besides that guy is a machine... stamina isn't an issue for him
You have earned my like.
Haaland is on track for a Ronaldo Fenomeno like career being a generational talent with a bucket list of injuries, regardless of where he's going next.
@Abdul Raheem i think you got that wrong
Just sayin 😂😂
My man is literally just playing FIFA 22 career mode with the professional easiness setting
Roy Keane's tackle on Alf-Inge and its ramifications. Grim
Tinashe runs this channel? Greetings from Harare. I just got goosebumps 🔥👏🏾
I know you’re a UTD fan, but with their (recent) track record of big singings flopping, I hope he goes anywhere but there. If erling can stay fit and gets partnered with a manager that can bring out the best in him and turn him into more than a pure scorer, we might have another generational talent on out hands to watch for the next 10-15 years. Probably not on the Messi level, but certainly top 10 of all time
Great video & honesty one…. Now can you forward this to pep please 💙✊
I am an arsenal fan and at the start of the season I thought United were going to challenge for the title because of their transfer window. As you said you never know what is going to happen but city are different and I am truly scared of them and haaland.
That meme with Jakes and PoPo in it really epic
As a Liverpool fan i say bring it on !
I hope the rivalry stays strong between us. This year has been fun to watch & you guys make me nervous on a weekly basis.
Bring it on u say. But when I think about the fact that they're probably gonna get 100+ points... Ugh...
You're barely coping with city playing Jesus upfront what will happen when Majimboo comes game over
Bring it on? We’re gonna win _39_ games out of 38 with Erling

He's a sprinter not a footballer
@@davidjr4903 well if he’s referring to footballers (more than likely) I can’t think of any other fr but generally usain bolt came to mind
While I appreciate what Pep has accomplished at Manchester City! Winning 4 Premier League Titles in 5 years. Along with several domestic Cups. To me Erling Haaland is the missing Champions League piece! A clinical striker who can score key goals, outside of Pep's system, in tight UCL ties. I also believe Haaland will emerge as a leader at Man City. His unique personality, confidence, & play on the pitch will allow him to lead by example. And the best part is Erling is a fan of Manchester City! Ntm that after selling Sterling, City will have roughly a 76 million dollar surplus in net spending for 2022. Despite signing Haaland, Alvarez, Phillips, & Ortega. Illustrates how Man City are just as good in the board room, as on the pitch! I can't wait to see Erling play in Man City blue! C'mon CI-TEH!!!🙌💙
Really enjoy your content man, keep it up! I have an idea for a future video: can you analyse ancelotti at bayern, considering that's the only club where the players didn't "like" him (because he's generally regarded as a brilliant man-manager).
Great suggestion!
