Its perfectly realistic if he accepts a cut in his wages back to £35/£40 per week.......

Not sure what is left on his city contract but If Mancini goes then a move for Barry and lescott could be good business - quality and experience .

I think Neville would not be a bad addition to the dressing room, coaching side or indeed the team in certain situations next season.

Barry and Lescott would be great players to bring in but if we're trying to get the wage bil under control, is that likley to happen?

Depends who we move off the wage bill i guess, if dunne , Hutton , warnock, and petrovs wage is no longer there along with maybe bent and Ireland i think there would be scope to bring in 2 or 3 high earners- obviously barry and lescott would have to accept a fair drop in wages from what they got at city.

Its not. Never works a player coming back to his original club Eastie. Remember Andy Gray?

Cowans, Staunton, Milner?

[Ron Manager]

Alright . Maybe you are both right with Cowans. I would like to see someone of authority in the middle a real captain.

Cant think who for the life of me.

  I felt too guilty to start a Summer transfer, speculation and complete bs thread....

Might as well be - just means that the bullshit links between now and the summer can be kept in one place so I've renamed it.

Phil Neville? I can't think of many people less in line with Lambert's transfer philosophy up to now.
