If only Wayne Bridge hadn't decided to retire.

Is Danny Mills still on the payroll?

Scott Sinclair for £80m - that's FFP sorted, kiss my arse Platini.

More likely its either Barry or possibly Eto'o.

if Sinclair is worth that much , we can get double that for gazbaz and follow it up with an offer for Messi.

Xavi. Still a top player and will get one last pay day. Plus he can be loaned to us in the MLS off-season. I think we will be thinking on those lines. Like Donovan went to Everton a couple of times. This way we get New York to pay wages and any transfer fee

That will be very clever piece of business ...

Barry as many have said is an option but Drogba announcing just last week that he's leaving Galatasaray has also got me thinking ...

Anyway ... when is nycityfans.net clone coming up?

Very good shout. NYC buy him, loaned to us free for the 2014-15 season. They can even pay his wages.

Would be so so funny to do this. Just to wind everybody up even more on the ffp bullshit.

I'm sure we'd have to agree not to do it again, like naughty boys.. But then we do own most of NYC, so bollox to them.

It wouldn't work. It's a related party transaction so there would probably be some kind of market value adjustment in the FFP calculation.

So NYCFC could loan a big money signing to say Arsenal without any problem, but to City would mean sanctions. I understand why but it seems flawed and could be a loophole.

Scatman - they have just made us promise not to sell assets within the group. So he'd have to be loaned free - wouldn't he?
