The Transfer Thread

Re: The Transfer Thread

Sounds like Yaya Toure is on his way to the Premiership, with a move to Man City

Last year the plan was buy more forwards than they could play. This year it's defensive midfielders. Brilliant.

I hope this happens, as then the Spanish media will have to find a different player to bring up when it falsifies stories about Cesc going to Barca.

They seem to be doing the same thing with central defenders. They have Toure, Kompany, Lescott, Onuoha and now Jerome Boateng. They are also after Vidic, Chiellini,etc, etc, etc.

I partially understand since Mancini wants to assemble his own squad, but I'd understand that concept much more if they actually would sell one or two players also. Is Ireland staying or going?

More than likely going. I've heard he could be part of the potential James Milner transfer with Aston Villa.

Liverpool are also interested but I don't think they would take our offer of 5 pence. That's all we have.

On the Sky Transfer Ticker Clockwatch:

21.38 Reports suggest Manchester City are set to complete a £55million double deal for Yaya Toure and David Silva within the next week.

Re: The Transfer Thread

He's a defensive midfielder by trade isn't he? So is De Jong, Vieira and for the most part Barry. I know you want to build a strong squad but all those guys won't be happy.

I mean this is the same team that gave 16 million for an average player in De Jong when they could of had him for free 4 months later.

You don't have to make good moves when you have as much money as Manchester City.

Re: The Transfer Thread

Sounds like Martin Petrov will either sign with Bolton or Villa.

I think De Jong is a much better player than you give him credit for. It was still a dumb business move though.

He isn't near good enough to be shelling out 16 million when he's about to go out of contract.

He would be a squad player for most big clubs.

Well he's saying they're signing Robbie Keane, and who the hell want to report they're signing him.

So pretty reliable.
