OK, risking a kicking here, but, over on bluemoon a poster reckons we've signed Schweinsteiger, as city have just added him onto their mobile phone account. Wouldn't usually post something i read on there, however, this guy has accepted a £50 bet from someone who said it was bullshit. I'll leave you to go read it if you want, but not much more detail than that.

Would be a fantastic signing if true, as him and toure in midfield would be a bit more mobile than de jong and barry.

Like I said over there, the story from that guy has all the telltale signs of a very sophisticated WUM.

You're probably right AC, (wondered if it was you), however, not sure why anyone would do it either way. If it's true, he's probably facing the sack. If not, he's still probably facing sack for announcing about City's account. It's one so odd, I'm inclined to believe it. It would also tie in with the cook/ng conversation about signings to blow you away, as this would definitely be in that camp

I don't know mate, there could be something in this.

Germany midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger has hinted at a move away from Bayern Munich by stating he is not "married" to the Bundesliga champions.

Schweinsteiger, one of the stand-out performers at the 2010 World Cup, has a contract at the Allianz Arena until 2012 which he insists he is happy to honour but the 25-year-old also concedes a move abroad would excite him.

"I have a contract with FC Bayern until 2012 and I really respect the club and the contract," he told Bild. "But I cannot say that I am married to FC Bayern. That would not be fair to the fans."

Schweinsteiger added: "I know that there is something great at FC Bayern. We didn't reach the Champions League final without good reason - and to win it is my ambition.

"The Bundesliga is great, and has become more important, but if I were to move on then, of course, the idea of going abroad is what excites me."

The article makes me think it's more of a wind up. I'd heard nothing about schweinsteiger till this claim, so it seemed a bizarre one to make up. However, if he'd seen the article first, it might have sparked the idea of a wind up.

Roll on sept 1st, when we can just concentrate on complaining about dzeko/torres/ibra (delete as appropriate) not tracking back.

There has been nothing new on Dzeko for weeks now, all the quotes yesterday are just a re-hash of an interview he gave a while ago now

Can any of our German residents confirm whether the German press has been saying anything new on him/his future this week???

There could be something in this. I had a call off a family member (a rag who has been disowned) on Friday who said that we had representatives in SA who will be visiting a German (no names given). For some reason I was thinking it maybe Lahm or Ozil, never thought in a million years it could be the Swine-Fucker.

I suppose we'll just after wait and see eh!

I'd rather have Ozil if it was choice out of him and Schweinsteiger.

This. I would be chuffed to the bollocks if we were to sign Schweinsteiger but I can't see it happening to be honest.

I reckon the German that our reps went to see was probably Boateng?

The thread has been pulled from Bluemoon by the way apparently for the reason that the OP asked for it as he was drunk when he posted it. I smell WUMMERY though.

No need to travel to Africa to see Boateng. If we have travelled there it's to see someone else.

Well - given a choice between Schweinsteiger an Milner - I guess we would not need a poll!!

What a position our owner has put us in to have such choices!!

I think that Schweinsteiger would be an outstanding signing

Probably just my old / typical CITY mentality but I just have this indigestion feeling that we are going to sign some 'fading star' that is big publicity - e.g. Beckham, Henry etc

Someone who works for City in some capacity I think. Don't know who he's meant to be getting his info from but the mods etc on 'mong' know who it is & say it's a kosher contact.

City have made a £250 million bid for Lionel Messi . A bloke who works in Gary Cook's office told a mate of mine who has a brother who works in my local chippy , and he told his dad who works with a mate of mine so it's true - FACT.

yeah i agree. Here we just stick to the knobheads. We know our place and don't claim to know much of anything. It's fantastic and very healthy.
