Iam unsure on Kolarov.

I rate Dzeko higher than Negredo.
Wouldn't want to ship any of them out, though, but we should get amother world class striker in and demote them to third and fourth striker. I've given up on Jovetic.

I wouldn't sell Kolarov for nothing in the world at this moment. When he finally settled in and looks class, for me that might be a huge mistake.

Rodwell will fuck off, Lescott will leave. Micah looks really in doubt, so as Clichy if we listen to the Dani Alves and Luke Shaw rumours.

If you'd have asked me at the start of the season I'd have said Kolarov for sure. That's all changed -

Out go -

Demichelis
Garcia
Lescott
Dzeko

In come no names just positions -

Right back cover for zaba similar style
Centre back of genuine class
Defensive midfielder better if not same as Fernandinho
Striker genuine pace or Ariel ability either

Move Richards to back up centre back

I'd also have a look at Lallana and Shaw

I don't think we play enough English players but I'd definately get rid of Micah. Sorry if it sounds harsh but what does he bring?

No one should be going unless we bring better reinforcements in first.

This, I'm not sure what has happened to him. Ever since we won the league he has gone backwards, meanwhile Zaba has pushed on.

He doesn't push Zaba for a place, but thankfully, Zaba doesn't need pushing to perform
"If we fire our manager after just one bad season - We'll become Chelsea"
"If we think we can fix the problem by buying expensive players - We'll become City"
"If we remember the good times to entertain us during the bad times - We'll become Liverpool"

So, keep calm and do it the United way


"We invest in young players, That is what we are good at — we’re not like other clubs who can spend fortunes on proven goods. We know that Manchester City are going to pay stupid money, pay silly salaries and all that. We can’t do anything about it. We concentrate on what we can do to try to bring players in for the right reasons. We invest in those who will be with the club for a long time, who will create the character of the club, who will create excitement for our fans. We are very proud of that and we are going to continue that way" - Alex Ferguson 14th May 2012

Good call I would bring in Lallana and Shaw as well.

Demichelis and Nastasic should be the first out the door.

Those 2 are so far off the pace it's embarrassing. No room for shit players in our squad and those 2 are way out of their depth. I don't think any other teams in the Premier League would want them, never mind a title-challenger.

Lescott,Richards (unfortunately),divine ponytail,Clichy,Rodwell,Sinclair,Barry,i'd still let Kolarov go if Inter come in with 18 millions.

We need a huge defensive overhaul.

Defensively, we need a back up for Zaba and Kompany; two new left sided centre halves, unless we risk Nastasic as the back up and; a first choice left back, assuming Clichy would be happy as back up. If Pants is going, a new keeper as well.
That's a huge amount of players and could make for a difficult start to next season.

Kun.
Yes.
Sergio Aguero.

Sell them when they're at their best , and can't get any better.
Wenger , Mourinho and The Drunkard were masters of this .
Same applies to Dzeko.

Those two will bring in 75 mill . Chuck in another 50 and we have enough to rebuild the defence and get a couple of forwards too.

I would give him another year but if he was injured through most of the season, like this one then I would get rid.

Richards has to go as he offers next to nothing on the field and is never fit. He's stagnated and needs to move which would suit both parties.

Rodwell needs to go as he's supposed to be a back-up cent midf but when needed he is also never fit.

Demichelis needs to go because he's fookin shite, but sadly unless Pellegrini departs he will stay.

Milner needs to go for his own sake as he's wasting his time at City, when he deserves far more games but never gets them.

Dzeko needs to go - he isn't top class, and we can still get a decent fee for him at age 28

Boyata needs to go - not up to it at the top level, end of.

Lescott doesn't need to go, but the manager doesn't rate him so he will walk. Our loss.

Contract decisions need to be made for Nasri, Pantilimon and Kolarov. Ie, offer them new ones - especially Nasri. If he doesn't sign by July, then he to will have to go otherwise he walks for nowt in summer 2015.
