Rags:
Rooney stays
Thiago in- most likely
Ronaldo- almost certainly bullshit

Chelsea:
Schurrle (great signing)
De rossi- strong rumours
suarez- maybe
alonso- maybe
cavani- heavily linked
Mourinho- on his own would make them a lot stronger

City:
Navas- good (not great) signing in an area we really needed
Fernandinho- no idea, but im with those that think we probably overaid for this guy and more obvious targets available (paulinho/de rossi if rumours are true)

Negredo- a very decent 'B' signing
Osvaldo- another project

Tevez: Best offensive player of last season gone


Navas - Great

Fernandinho - Great

Osvaldo - Great

Negredo - Great-

Tevez - little pig who shat on us from 30,000 feet and wanted to leave for the last 3 years.

Michael Brookes - Cunt

Or, inform everyone that we value him at 40 million and he will not go for anything less. They have all done it to us. Time to turn those tables. Especially if Napoli try and get him, which has also been speculated.


Or flog him for something ridiculous like 6mil before we even get another striker in the squad.

Yes I have, but you find me where Berbatov is in british footballing annals of history as a record transfer.

I dont give a shit about what you believe the final fee to have been, all reasonable sources seem to have settled on that day, Robinho having been the british transfer record, and had subsequent information come to light which changed this, the various sources of transfer data would have updated their statistics on the matter.

Or is that another conspiracy to add to the list

Thats got to be a make or break for him now, decent standard league but he will haveto really step it up on his return if he is to make an impact.

Good deal all round, gives him exposure in the event we decide he doesnt make the grade for us so should enable us to cash in on a reasonable transfer fee too

I think Pellegrini is happy with what he has and think he can fight for title with this team plus minor holes here and there what we where missing he fill up with decent not crazy money spend players . I think this guy maybe show us or how much Bob did not use what he have or it will be clear that we have mercenary team .Because when i look at the players we have on all position two great player somewhere three. I think he will buy only what he think he need no point spend money on some players like Chelse did over years Marko Marin or we last season Scot Sinclar he will buy only what hes sure will use . Think for a moment he bring Malaga to 4 spot in Spain and last 8 in CL and he have now in club better quality by much. So he will bring maybe Pepe, Negredo and maybe one surprise and that is it.That for me look like manager sure about hes plan, confident and have exp.So i m not in panic.
You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline. It helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer.

Hmmmn..

Are these 4 really "great" players? I must admit of the 4 I only really know about navas who id classy as good to very good. The others are 'B' list on paper but obviously we will have to wait and see.

The utd and Chelsea signings/linked players are certain to strengthen in very key areas so I do believe my concern is warranted.

As for Carl, I don't really post here enough to have 'previous' but just enough to be bored by him.

Napoli going to make a push for Dzeko with Cavani looking to depart for PSG and Jovetic denying them.

If we agree we should play the similar type of hard ball that ADL was playing and demand Insigne in the deal but loan him back for next season (that might help).

So now you have upped Navas grade from good to very good...I see.
The others have a first class goal to game ratio so fuck knows where you get your B grade on paper from......
Your concern is laughable....I prefer to read what the real experts in the media say , and suffice to say they dont agree with you which extends to the bookies who have us on shit odds to win the prem.

More than that. Get Insigne(no loan bullshit) and 40 million pounds. We are under no pressure to sell. We are not Arsenal who rely on player sales. Pellegrini probably wants to use Dzeko as well. And Dzeko wont push for a move either. Squeeze those cunts hard. Really hard.

Meh.. odds are the pretty much the same for utd and Chelsea.

Navas classification is as per my original post.

The point being that whilst we made / looking to make some functional signings you can't ignore the direct competition who are making/ rumoured to make some really great buys. Given that we were blown away by the rags last year and not THAT far off Chelsea, just keeping pace is going to take sone doing, never mind pushing on. The vast majority of the so called "experts" have Chelsea as favs and many still have utd ahead of us- especially if they fill that massive void in last years squad with Thiago.

Question is: Will the rags manage to fill the void that Bacon face leaves? I doubt Moyes can fill in especially in the first year itself.

Personally not being faves is a great thing. Less pressure, imo. We can then surprise a few people.

Edin will never go to Napoli after what President of Napoli said about him when he try to take 40 mil and Edin and City refused that .Then he talk shit about Edin for a week and now they wont him. If we really wanna sell Edin it s better to sell Atletico who have money from Falcao and maybe Edin would go there :) but on other note i don't think if this is true but on few portals said that we are closer to sign Osvaldo than Negredo. Let me tell u i watch a lot Roma games and few of Sevilla. Osvaldo is well ...for me Destro is better they have one of greatest midfielders(Totti,Florenzi,Lamela.Pjanic,Bradley,Marqinho,Torosidis and few others really good team ) in Italy but they finish 6 or 7 on poor Italy league now not even Europe league witch tells u a lot and yes defense suck to but Osvaldo did not impress me at all. Hes good but Negredo is way better for what i saw from games i watch .But maybe Pellegrini see something i do not that is why i m fan and hes manager then again all that rumors could be all crap . Napoli price for Dzeko 40 mill please .

I watched Negredo's best goals admittedly best 11 but they were great goals. I hope we get him. Dont think we need to sell Dzecko, why should we solve their problems after they selling their best striker( and not to us), they are not helping us so fuck them. A £60 million buy out clause should sort that . He will prosper with a winger system (back to Bundesleigh form ) I would like an out and out winger to partner Navas then we will have the width that bobby never wanted Oh and sell that twat Sinclair if we get another winger he is not needed and probably isn't good enough.
Anyway dont worry about rags or Chelsea, Moyes is already apologising saying its their toughest start ever and Maureen may find life a good deal harder than he thinks, intending to use that old cunt Terry too. We are City so well beat those wankers get in.
