In which case swap Milner for SWP, Ireland and maybe Richards and it's job done

Yeah Des, that would really help our wage bill.

So how do we improve the squad without affecting the wage bill then?  I think if you can crack that one, you'll get a stand named after you.

Not buying Man City's overpaid crap.

Reported on the radio today, rumours that YaYa Toure has signed for Man City.

Isn't he a similar kind of player to Milner? If so, that would suggest a move there is less likely for him.

He's a big, dominant holding player. Vieira replacement I'd assume, and make it tougher for Barry and De Jong.

I had already spent the £30 million as well on our team..

If that's true that they have signed Toure I really believ we could take De Jong off their hands, which would be brilliant.  They have say Barry, Kompany, Viera, De Jong and Toure for a maximum of 2 places, surely they could let De Jong go?

Possibly but I think Vieira was there for his dressing room influence having been there and done it, he was/is Mancini's ears and eye's in the dressing room. Kompany is a central defender by trade and Barry could be there left back...larf.

I think if De Jong is available he'll go to a bigger club.

He's looked very good &  his reputation is growing.

He's better than Mascherano & Mikel & other players who play that position.

Kompany would be a more realistic option.

Barry will be shipped out this summer.

To whom?

He has four years left on a contract worth in excess of £100,000 per week.

Why would he leave and who else would pick up that contract?

Tottingham would be my bet.

Might take a hit on the wages, but creative accounting re signing on fees et.c could still make it a goer.

Part of me would like to see us go for him, but returning to us would be like admitting defeat.

Returning to us after one season would be taking the urine.
