I must admit i can't see either of the players I mentioned being part exchanged. Petrov is far more realistic, he is a winger after all.

He also doesn't play for Man City anymore.

I don't quite think Money City can offer a player they released yesterday as part of any deal either.

He might sign for us but it will be on his own recognisance rather than City's.

I don't think we will sign Petrov, hence me saying I find it more realistic that we'll sign him than richards or Ireland.
 I am aware he doesn't play for Citeh anymore so won't be part of any deal involving James Milner.
We'll see what the mirror says about it tomorrow though.

Hopefully you have one as featured in Snow White & The Seven Dwarves rather than going on the say-so of any other form or Mirror.

I really hope your being ironic. I do quite like the articles of Oliver Holt, mind you.

link?


Here


From that article it sounds as though he is being sold by the club and not MON.

It may happen but not in the way stated in the article.  Why would Randy sell one of our star players, upset MON and possibly see MON leave.

If Milner goes, it will be because either he wants to leave or MON accepts the fee as being right for the club.

I think the Mail are putting 2 and 2 together (plus another 2) and coming up with 5.  £28m, MON unhappy, MON possibly leaving, Boussoufa.  In other words, speculation.  Surprised they couldn't fit Petrov and Keane into the same report.

As I said, it may happen but talk about a scatter gun approach to reporting.

Blues tell Mil to thrill at BridgeBy SHAUN CUSTIS

Published: Today
JOHN TERRY and Frank Lampard are on a mission to get James Milner to Stamford Bridge.

The Chelsea duo are using the opportunity of the World Cup camp to work on Villa star Milner and persuade him that a move to London would be far better for his career than joining Manchester City.

City have made a £25million bid for Milner, 24, and have offered the midfielder £90,000-a-week.

By contrast Chelsea are only offering £45,000-a-week but they were this season's Double winners and are in next season's Champions League.

Milner has always maintained football is the most important thing to him rather than money - and Blues duo Terry and Lampard are making the same argument.

A Chelsea source said: "It's a difficult one because the difference in wages is so big that James will find it hard to pick Chelsea over City.

"But the advantages at Chelsea are that the team are proven winners and are challenging in Europe's biggest competition. City cannot say the same."

£45,000-a-week and all the team-mates wives he can shag.....that'd be Terry's pitch.

One club he'd not fit in at is Chelsea. James Milner seems, at least, to be an anti-cock. How'd he survive amongst the uber-cocks at Stamford Bridge?
