An offer of 25million Pounds would be too good to turn down, yes Milner was good in the centre of midfield during the second half of last season, but we we're still getting over ran in games in the centre of the park, maybe that was Petrov's fault? who knows, but an offer of 25m+ for a good player, not an expecptional one is too good to refuse.

I intend to call my new band The Milners.  The members are:

RB Milner (he who operates the drum machine)
RM Milner (he who plays lead)
LM Milner (he who plays bass)
CM Milner (he who sings & plays rhythm)

Hey Ho! Let's Go!

I don't want to be buried in Manchester City,
I don't want to never be heard again.

Nice.

They've been crying out for songs in the TF thread.

They don't know what they're missing.

Given the fees they've paid out for other players, there's no problem in City forking out 30 mill. We have no pressing need to sell Milney so lets hold out and play hardball for once. We give clubs an easy ride too often.

30 mill or fuck off should be the state of play.

That extra 6 mill between 24 and 30, is a decent player right there.

I liked the suggestion that Citeh issued us a with 'take it or leave it' ultimatum a few weeks ago, after offering £20 mill.

Leave it.

Thanks for calling, have a good Christmas if I don't see you for a while. Cheers.

theres not many on here that think he's worth 28 mill,
 even the guys who think he's awesome still say take the money if its 25-30mill.

so why would Man City think he's worth that sort of figure ?

 i was told from a City source that its 20 mill because thats what he's worth, which is probably about right,
 but in that case we will probably keep him unless he throws a tantrum, should please a lot of people if he stays.

i'm not fussed either way, i personaly would still take the 20 mill,as i dont think he's as great as people make out, and i want a revamp of the midfield and striking options,
but heres to hopeing !

He's worth £20million.

However, Man City have overpaid for just about every player they've signed so they will eventually offer whatever inflated fee we want.

Indeed.

In fact I'm not even sure if he's really worth that.
If we were desperate to sell or had financial issues, it might be closer to £15-£18 million. Based on his contribution to date with us and compared with the value of other players out there in a similar position.

But we don't want/ need to sell, Citeh are nouveau riche tasteless pricks throwing money about to get noticed so it's £30 million. Thankyou and fcuk you.

I've been thinking about how insane some of this talk about how much Milner is worth is.

I see Schweinsteiger or whatever is linked with Chelsea. He's 25 and a finer all round central midfielder you would struggle to find. If he does leave Bayern for Chelsea it will be for £20-25Million.

Wesley Sneijder is a bit older but still he's fantastic player a great all round attacking midfielder. Inter got him for £20million and Man Yoo are linked with him in one of the rags at £25million.

It is sheer madness that Milner is going for more money than these players who are by most estimations much better.
