The Milner Novela... Final episode page 296

The thing is, Man City will pay all that money for him and play him out wide. Why would he want that when he's not actually that good in that position?

that is what I do not understand, looks like Yaya Toure will join very soon as well so that central midfield positions become far too crowded for a player who is intelligent and must look towards his football future.

does he really want to become just a utility player when the central midfield spots for England could open up very shortly for him if he starts as well next season as last season

Sell him for hysterical amounts if he wants to go and attempt to bring in Montolivo if we can.

Is that some sort of spread?

Nope, it is definitely a hill in Israel.

Which reminds me of a favourite joke of my yoot:


What happened when Jesus went to Mount Olive?

Popeye chinned him!



Ack ack ack ack.

.City to launch £100m spending spree - but no Milner

Man City have lined up a stunning £100million triple swoop this week for Yaya Toure, David Silva and Edin Dzeko - but a proposed move for James Milner is in doubt.

Ivory Coast midfielder Toure, 27, is set to be the first to join Roberto Mancini's Eastlands shake-up this week for £28m from Barcelona.

But Valencia's attacking midfielder Silva, 24, is also expected to agree to join for around £30m despite being away on international duty with his native Spain.

And Man City are willing to splash a massive £36m on Wolfsburg striker Dzeko, 24, who scored 27 goals in 46 appearances last season for the German club.

The triple swoop will end up costing City, bankrolled by Abu Dhabi cash, an astonishing £100m.

The arrival of Bosnia & Herzegovina forward Dzeko will be a huge coup as he has been chased by Manchester United, Chelsea and a host of top European sides.

But City's hierarchy have put securing the signatures of midfielder Toure and Silva ahead of Milner.

And England ace Milner, 24, has told pals he has received no firm recent guarantees that Man City will return with another bid for him.

Aston Villa rejected an opening £18m bid plus £2m in add-ons from City earlier this summer for versatile midfielder Milner.

Villa are holding out for around £28m which looks hugely overpriced given England's dismal World Cup campaign after a last 16 thrashing to Germany.

Milner has told friends he has no intention of handing in a transfer request in a bid to get a move to Eastlands.

But it appears Villa will have to drop their asking price for the star if he is to push through a move to City.

Milner could still end up at Eastlands as City need to boost their quota of homegrown players for this season.

But City's hesitancy to pay over the odds for Milner could let in Chelsea and Man United who both fancy the midfielder and may offer him a better chance of starting.

Milner performed creditably against Slovenia and was one of the few England players to turn in a reasonable display against Germany before being subbed.



good news if true, though how much money we'll have to spend now is debatable

[Mazrim]

My God, somebody tell me Mr Nursey doesnt get paid for writing this fucking tripe.

[BannedUserIAT]

That's one hell of a txt spk emoticon you have there.

[Mazrim]

cumgetus has totally convinced me. I have no doubt he is the sort of person to have the heavyweight connections that would allow him to know these kind of things.

[JUAN PABLO]

So his value has gone down after the World cup. so whats Rooney worth then, a packet of condoms...

May as well. At least they're useful in the box.

[PaulTheVillan]

Clever.

I wish City would just hurry up and offer the £25m, so at least we might have something to spend this summer.
