Who is going?

[Goaters 103]

Kolarov, Kolo, Maicon, Sinclair, Dzeko, Pantilimon and Tevez are surefire goners.

Lescott and Barry possibles.

[Dunnylad]

Aguero said he's off to US and then World Cup qualifiers so it looks like he's staying

Kompany's silence since the Cup Final is out of character - only mentioned his mrs being on the radio & his Belgian club side

[Green & Blue]

If Tevez moves he will be a big loss on the pitch.

[Slim]

Kolarov, Kolo, Maicon, Sinclair, Dzeko, Pantilimon and Tevez are surefire goners.

Lescott and Barry possibles.

Not so sure about Dzeko anymore.

[Pretty Boy Lee]

Not so sure about Dzeko anymore.

I get the impression dzeko is staying and Tevez going.

Who knows right now tho, I wouldn't shed a year for many today.

[Yaya Toure is a LAD]

Tevez said on SSN that he's staying

[Im_Spartacus]

Tevez said on SSN that he's staying

Did HE say that, or did 'Sky Sports News' say that? Given he doesn't do interviews, and certainly wouldnt do one for sky who tried to stitch him up after the Norwich game last year,I would take this with a jumbo sized pinch of salt.

[Blue Oli]

well if you listen to the board here it looks like we might be left with just Zabba in the first team squad - get a grip - the press are going mental guessing whats going on as they dont have a clue, or an inside sauce.

all is good and will shape up before next season, the last thing I see happening is a last minute rush in the transfer market this year


keep the faith

[Hazy2]

Whatever happens I make us challengers, No Vinny next season is a massive mistake if that was to happen, he has to stay no matter what we do in the summer anything else is backwards and should not be allowed.

[sheblue]

Both dzeko and tevez won't go together, it will be either, hopefully with pelligrini coming tevez will stay. Tezez and pablo were our best this season.
Dzeko will go germany and will be replaced.

I don't see any reason why both wouldn't go.

A total upwards of £35-40m for the pair plus the £20m from Mario means we could have Falcao in the bag not have spent a penny, and bring through one of the younger players as backup, with Isco, Silva, Nasri, Toure supporting up front.

I see no reason why we would need 3 top class centre forwards.

Might be a clue in Edin's latest Instagram:

I would say 3 minimum sparty...but if you are talking about no.9 types I agree.
If we start the season with Tevez, Aguero, Cavani or Falcao with John Guidetti as 4th striker thats ample.

Yeah, I meant number 9s. Suppose it remains to be seen exactly how the new man interprets the 4.3.3 brief.

At the start of the title winning season we had it absolutely nailed with Silva playing a free role alongside 2 forwards. If this Isco feller is going to come in and play a similar sort of role, I only really see room for one centre forward on the pitch at a time, with Aguero, Silva, Isco, Nasri being the wide / floating players.

Whilst Tevez would undoubtedly do a job there, I expect the club will cash in now. Even though I've long advocated that we played Aguero and Tevez wide with Dzeko or Balo in the middle, we never really tried it, which is possibly one of the biggest disappointments of Bobby's reign to me - this could be rekindled with just the transfer of Cavani or Falcao up front plus Isco.

The midfield could be a solid base with Yaya, Rodwell, Barry, Milner, Garcia +1 (or sell Garcia and bring in 2)

I really don't think we need much to pull off a team with attacking ability that's never been seen before in this league, its just a shame Bobby never fancied that approach.

We have been here before with the manager have we not. Sorry any thoughts things are that straight forward at City ARE GONE SADLY.

[Florida Blue]

I want Sinclair, RSC, Kolo, Bridge, Maicon, and Kolarov out. However, no one will take SInclair or Maicon off our books so looks like its loans for them...hopefully.

I am pretty sure Maicon was only a 1-year deal for 3.5m.

[Risby]

I am pretty sure Maicon was only a 1-year deal for 3.5m.

I hope so.

Not sure what the point of signing him was apart from being good mates with Bob.

[Piccsnumberoneblue]

For some reason two years sticks in the memory.

That's not good news.

Nothing like being a city fan. The ups, then the downs, and now hopefully another up is on its way!
