How Much of Today's Bad News Is True?

Micah gutted that he is not going to the Euros even with Kyle Walker injured.

Yaya wants out this summer.

Rooney going to Chelsea for £50m so they can buy Hazard & Martinez

I'd say that was fair.
They really need to spend pretty big AND keep the grannyshagger.
Don't think Yaya believes it's job done at City yet.
And I suspect Micah has a problem. I'd love to see him at the Euro do, but it doesn't harm us at all for him to stay home and recharge.

I read on Marca yesterday that Falcao might be off to Chelsea for 15m euros plus Torres. Why would all these good players be queueing up to go to the Chavs now that they're a bit shit and not even guaranteed CL? Propaganda from their Fleet Street helmet shiners methinks.

As for the Richards thing, it's incredible if true unless, as LookMum reckons, he's injured. But he has been on the bench so I doubt that.

In Yaya's case, it sounds to me like his agent is the one after a payday. Even so, if you look at the quotes carefully, I think you'll see that he suggests he might leave at the end of NEXT season.

Chelsea will need to be looking very cautiously at spending and FFP if they miss out on Saturday. You might find Roman suddenly aint such a fan of it.

I tend to believe the words Yaya himself said.

There are rumours Micah has been left out due to injury & it's pretty clear he did pick up a recent injury & has been patched up somewhat since so it could well be true. If not, it is an absolutely staggeringly bad error of judgement, but nothing is impossible re England when you are competing with rag players; Brian Greenhoff received 18 caps. We shall see.

Unless Rooney has an escape clause, that HAS to be bollocks. Without him, rags are nothing & who would want to sign for them if he left ?

you have cheered me up immensely - I genuinely prefer good news - could you reassure me that Joe Hart is not unhappy and is prepared to stay even if Van Persie signs?

I'm actually staggered that it's starting to appear as if we are actually in for Van Persie. It goes against every aspect of our transfer policy & is effectively sticking two fingers up to Platini. I'd still be surprised if we got him, but I would have bet my life on us not being in for him. It appears there are just too many rumours coming from close to home, & from the Arsenal end, for there not to be some truth in it.

Someone up front must leave if he comes in. Perhaps you could panic about that ? ;)

7 strikers including club trained Sturridge & Guidetti is a pleasant sufficiency - nice too have a full 25 man squad!

What's with the rumour being circulating in comments under various news in all different papers today that a swap deal for yaya toure with cesc fabrigas is in the works??

I'd like us to announce this week itself that Robin Van Persie and Edin Hazard are done deals ... that'll send shivers down the rag spine and then we can sit back and watch them and also other big clubs panic for the rest of the summer!

I'd leave a 3,28 pct. possibility for the first bit of the last bullock to be true...

[PeterParker]

His agent is a nasty one. If you remember, he was responsible of Yaya leaving Barcelona.

At that time, Toure wasen't that keen on going out, but he insisted and insisted. I might be wrong, but isn't Yaya the best paid player of our club? If that is the case, i wonder what the hell is this guy thinking, who else would pay him more? Anzhi? Malaga?

[bleedBlue]

Here is what this clown of an agent had to say about City in 2010 during the Yaya deal.

"Yaya Toure’s (27) agent, Dimitri Seluk, recently held an interview with TV station Rac-1, in which he talked about Wenger and Arsenal’s interest in Toure, and how things have changed with Manchester City, claiming that they talk big, but in the end they appear to be bankrupt. This appears to be one of his reasons for why he believes Toure will join Arsenal instead of Manchester City this summer."


“There’s a lot of interest in the deal for Toure. Arsene Wenger likes him and Arsenal are interested,” Seluk said, mentioning also that everything could be finalised soon if the conditions are good. He also stated that Toure could be a part of the Cesc Fabregas deal, and shared his views on how things have changed with Manchester City. “He could come into the Cesc Fabregas deal, but Barca and Arsenal are struggling to come to an agreement. [highlight]Everything has changed with City, because they talk a lot but then afterwards they don’t appear to be a rich club, but rather a bankrupt one.[/highlight]”

I'm pretty sure that comment was because we wouldn't pay him his agent's bung. This will be his attempt to make up for it.

Rumour has it Hazard's agent has tried it on but we're having none of it, as with Nasri's agent last summer.

Have you heard anything about what Neven Subotic's agent is saying, Ted. I'm sure we must only be days away from him signing for us ??

As in rocky speech.
If he goes, he goes, he's replaceable.
But if untrue, move on paper talk.

It could mean Tevez is off. His 'apology' and the club's open arms did seem a bit contrived at the time. I'd convinced myself he was going to stay though.
