I'd be stupid for us to offer long term contract extensions to ANYONE a this stage as we have no idea who our manager for the future will be. Once Mancini's position is cemented OR new man comes in, start the discussions again.
On the subject of SWP's commitment, I can't believe the bullshit I read here sometimes. He has NEVER given us anything but his 100% (and usually squeezes few extra on top of that) on the pitch. I don't think his contract negotiations will have ANYTHING to do with how he performs. It's highly unfair to question his commitment on the pitch when he has shown nothing that would indicate he is holding out on the pitch.

I remember thinking though, that I'd watch to see in the future whether agents started unsettling players towards the end of the 3 year period because whatever the rule was, it affected the position or earnings of the agent, therefore it was in their interests to do a deal each 3 years. Anyone know what the fuck I'm talking about because I clearly don't & could be talking shite but there is some kind of rule ?
Perhaps something like 'an agent can only represent a player for 3 years of a contract at one club' something like that?
Could it be that Ian Wright or his cronies lose their cut if SWP stays at City but doesn't sign soon?
