I'm not actually entirely sure Mancini wanted Heargreaves. I honestly think Mancini wanted De Rossi but couldn't get funds (which was reported at the time) and they just ended up signing Heargreaves as back up of a back up of a backup. And in the end they didn't think he was suited to even that role hence Pizarro.
I believe we are looking for box-to-box midfielder this summer and actually I wouldn't be surprised if De Jong ended up moving. I love Nigel but I think Mancini might be looking for someone more positive on the ball even if he (and I) appreciate what De Jong brings on the table defensively. It also seems to me that Mancini may not fancy Milner much in that center midfield role.

We wouldn't have to pay him too much either. Considering he qualifies for OAP discounts everywhere.

Yeah if you call 90k a week OAP discounts at the ripe old age of 36.
