Kia Jorabchain (or however its spelt) has really close links with Corinthians. If its true, and money up front rather than installments, lets do it. He can't do us any damage from there, and it means we can move on.

But surely it's everybody's dream to play for the greatest football club in the world.

The cynic in me says will probably play there for a year and then Kia will have him off to inter, real or chelsea for 45m next summer. It all stinks to me. Why the fucl was Kia spouting shit a month ago about tevez staying with City? It's just so dodgy that I don't trust anything about tevez and Kia. They are a partnership that's made them both very very rich and they will keep milking it for everything they can get. At least we got what were probably a couple of his best seasons and a pot from his time here.

But that said, hats off to tevez tho if he goes to Corinthians for a couple years and then finished up at boca juniors. It would be what he should do based on his complaints and if we half believed his story we ought to consider selling I'm at 35m with some rights to some young Brasilians maybe thrown in for some upside. Players that is.

The issue I have with any deal with a south american club is the structure of the transfer. They love to raise their profile with stuff like this, but I dont want £7m a year for the next 5/6 years. I hope any deal with a club like this will be be Cash up front or we walk away.

Spot on, if its all the money up front, then i'd sell him to a South American team at that price. If it's installments then it really isn't going to be worth it.

I know Im going in a different direction but hear me out.Kompany and Lescott are the no1 partnership, Boateng ends up leaving us, will Toure be ready till October and will Savic have adapted. I cant believe we have made enquires about cahill and yet were no interested in Samba. He dominant in both boxes in the air, is quick and can play the ball on the ground.Can even play upfront. When we played them he did not give us a sniff until Dzeko scored. I know we have other priorities, but I cant believe he not been considered.What do you think?

I fear they would have him for 5 mins and then sell to someone else, even chelsea. I would like to see adu dhabi united put a 50m bid in for him. That will do 3 things, 1 piss uefa off, 2 piss Tevez off and 3 piss our rivals off as they couldn't compete with the bid.

Defensively we are sound mate, no need to do anymore at the back. I doubt Samba or Cahill would improve on anything we already have anyways.

The main priority is replacing Carlos if he goes as is expected. Step up Aguero kun!

Just make sure there is a 25% sell-on clause in the contrect, and we're covered if he's shipped back to Europe in a year ;-)

the new Vieira - sign him up!

Toulouse star Moussa Sissoko admits he has been flattered by rumours linking him with Manchester City and Liverpool.
And the France international has also revealed that he might be ready to try his hand in English football - but only if his club receive the right offer.
The tough-tackling midfielder, who has drawn comparisons to compatriot Patrick Vieira for his all-action style, has been linked with moves away ever since breaking into the first team at Toulouse.
But the 21-year-old is under contract at the club until 2013 and insists he is happy to stay in France, despite the interest from England and Italy.
"I am an ambitious player and I dream to play in the big leagues," he told L'Equipe. "I want to improve as a player and if I am presented with a good opportunity I will take it.
"They talk about Liverpool, Manchester City and Lyon and hearing my name associated with these clubs is wonderful.
"But at the moment there is nothing concrete. I have a contract with Toulouse until June 2013. If I have to stay then it's no problem. Toulouse is a great club."

You are putting too much emphasis on a cliché that doesn't make sense. Benzemá came to Madrid overweighted and had a very hard time to adapt to the superior level of football. I lived 2 years in Marseille and went regularly to games when i could and I will not describe French football as "fast paced". There are a handful of fast sides in Europe at the moment, the game is becoming more and more possession based borefest.

You might be thinking of Aly Cissokho, who is a left back.

that's insulting if true.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

he may not be the most gifted player in our squad, but he's the heart and soul of the team - i'd be appalled if we sold, especially if it was for something as insignificant as 6.5m
