25mil id say. and even 25m will not guarantee them the goals Benteke got for them, because lets face it Villa are out of the loop when attracting top players now...itll be another rough diamond.

Can we buy him i would rather buy somebody who play in PL them this targets of strikers that left .Negredo is staying , Lewandowski is staying , Cardoso to Fenerbahce ,Cavani PSG 90 %, Gomes to Fiorentina, Vila to Athletico M.So who is left Higuain who is probably close to some deal and Osvaldo.

Why is signing a cf when you have just signed a winger, 'reinventing the wheel' ? Surely 'doing the bleeding obvious' would be a better description ?

And who gives a fuck what Spain's manager thinks ?


True that.

Also must be said that while Higuain looks like an obvious deal we should be going for, if you look into it, the deal is widely believed to be above 50 million total (not including wages). This is because of all of the bonuses Real want attached to the deal.

There is good reason why only Arsenal are in for him. He is super pricey.


It's also worth considering why Real Madrid choose to get rid of a striker at his peak.

The answer; they don't think he's good enough.


That is the most stupid comment, AMONGST MANY YOU MAKE. He has such a long deal because the club rate him so highly, FACT.

I have to say there's a decided lack of City speculation in the Spanish press in the last 2 weeks. Everything they do have is 'according to the Daily Mail/Star/Sun'. Or MARCA, which is equally untrustworthy. Or Barca's mouthpiece, Sport.es of course.

Well you know how it is mate, if what is printed/reported isnt liked then its made up bollox and a journo conspiracy against us (even if it is true), if the report is favourable it gets lorded up and a peice of genius ...

Was there any mention of David Villa to Athletico Madrid until it had actually happened? I didn't see anything, thought he was going to Spuds.

Seems to me that when it comes to buying players, AM know how to get the job done. €5.1m seems to be a bargain too.

At 31 he may only have a couple of seasons left in him but it will be interesting to see how he gets on. Him and Dave were a class act together at Valencia. Feel we missed out on this

There were some sites mentioning it.

Apparently he turned down Spurs and Fiorentina, who both had higher bids, because he wanted to go to Atleitco
and Barca honored his desires as repayment for his services.

Schwarzer signs for Chelsea great back up keeper. Robles the wigan fucker who kept us out of the fa cup signs for everton, martinez signs three ex wigan he really needs to get more imaginative. Hopefully moyes does same with everton players and ignores worldwide talent!

The same paper who printed about Perez saying RM had too many players playing in Isco's position so he was'nt interested in signing him.
