It's funny that in the last two seasons,there best players,Ireland and Bellamy probably wont be there this season. Can see what their logic in buying virtually a new side,this must cause unrest in the squad,think there gonna implode and Mancini will be gone by Christmas,then the process will start all over again.


 I did mean can't see their logic,just in case anyone wonders what the hell im on about!!

Man City after Landan Donovan.

He'd be great in our side down the right.

I think they will go very very close to winning the league this year personally.

With the amount they're spending, Mancini will be out on his ear if they don't.

The Milner situation will only be  a problem if we keep him and he doesn't sign a new contract. If he does sign 'improved terms' we can have another year or two and flog if we have to for loadsamoney.  

I would hope we could keep him and improve our side without all this  rebuilding but like most I think he will eventually be sold unfortunately.


Milner is not so good that if Man C do not sign him this window they will keep trying until they get him.

If we keep him, this time next year Man C will have moved on and be interested in God knows who else instead.  Milner will know that or his agent will tell him, so he will sign a new contract with us after the window closes.  An extra £40k a week in the hand now is worth twice as much in the bush next year.

I think that if Milner stays and plays a full season in the centre with us he'll show exactly why Man City are after him!!

I'll rephrase it - show exactly why he might actually be worth the money they're talking about.

Sunderland after Bramble and David James.

Mistakes galore there!

I think they will count their blessings if he plays in a 2 with Petrov all season!

Dunno what kind of success rate the Football Pools.com has with transfers. I'm guessing it's similar to you winning the actual pools judging by some of those other obscure transfer links listed.

But to engage in this flight of fantasy for a brief moment: for £5 million? Send him this way.

Not 100% out and out top class. Won't be getting into any 'Best of' selections out of any of the teams he's played for to date. But very good at what he does, allowing more attack-minded players to do their thing.

so they already have Silva down the right and possibly Milner down the right and in the centre where Donovan can play

is he going to star in the elite squad then ?

I'm convinced that Man City are not only intent on buying up the best possible players but taking the best players of their rivals.

I really hate the direction football is going.
