Fingers crossed. We need defenders and don’t need a bloke that sulks on the pitch when he’s not getting ball. I love him as a player, but we’re far too reliant on him. The squad needs more balance.

Are you trying to pretend you will be happy to sell him?

No thanks.
I hope we are trying to remove the Raiola cancer from our club, not add to it.
No. Im not delusional enough to imagine he will be with us past next season and probably not even after this one. But if the one thing that’s holding us from signing more defenders is money, then I’d happily move him on. If we stopped leaking goals, a forward line with Malen and Adeyemi, and a midfield of Bellingham, Zakaria and Dahoud would be very very good.
We also need better defensive wingers - the money that Haaland brings in would help to address this too.

Whilst true, Adeyemi and Malen are not the goal scorers that Haaland is.
Bellingham wont be around next season either.

The point Wadistance is making is that Adeyemi (if the transfer happens) and Malen will be playing with Borussia Dortmund next season. Haaland won’t be.
As for Bellingham not being around next season. Dortmund won’t sell both Bellingham and Haaland in the same transfer window.

Bellingham will be around next year, and if we can sign his brother and his whole family moves to Dortmund (he already lives there with his mum) the chances of him re signing get even higher.
I think with a competent defence, Zakaria instead of Witsel and Malen/Adeyemi forward, our GD is much better than currently.

Although I agree and would prefer us to go for Vlahovic the club is still very much interested in Haaland, if we do somehow manage to sign him I think he isn't as much controlled by Raiola as Pogba and co, his dad is still the main influence.

Would prefer Bellingham over Haaland.

Only way Bellingham stays after next season imo is if Dortmund match the wages English clubs will throw at him and they are able to challenge Bayern for the title. So it's unlikely.

Another season at Dortmund would be great for his development. No rush for him to join a PL team at 18.

Dortmund aren't selling Haaland and him in the same window so he'll get another development year.

Crazy to use the word “development” for one of the best midfielders in the world.

Yeah it is but he's only 18 years old still and he'll keep developing for the next 3 or 4 seasons.

That’s the crazy part. How much better he will eventually become.

Jogba could do with a season or 2 at Dortmund for.his development. Do they teach you not to be a complete prick at BVB?

Serie A might just perfect for Joggles. He can be a star there until his late 30s.

It's kinda weird hearing stuff like I'd rather Bellingham or Vlahovic over Haaland from United supporters.
Haaland scored 29 in 27 for Red Bull and has scored 76 in 74 for BVB. It's madness. You basically start every game 1-0 when Haaland plays. He's 21 years old.
If I could sign any one player for Liverpool in world football it would be Haaland by quite some distance. Goals win games.

Spend some seasons with Raiola and then come and say your piece.

Thanks dad.
Liverpool can't afford the wages.
