Joe. Posted 14 July 2009 Posted 14 July 2009 They're actually in talks with Adebayor now. Why?! They can do better for that amount of cash surely...
lildave3 Posted 14 July 2009 Posted 14 July 2009 They're actually in talks with Adebayor now. Why?! They can do better for that amount of cash surely... If they're going for an Arsenal player they'd be better off with Gallas.
Joe. Posted 14 July 2009 Posted 14 July 2009 Tevez Robinho Adebayor Santa Cruz Bojinov Bellamy Caicedo Evans Nice. EDIT: And Benjani and Jo (for now)! What the hell are they going to do with them all?! I'd assume that Evans and Caicedo will be shipped off on loan, whilst Jo and Benjani are sold off somewhere. Unsure about Bellamy and Bojinov, but their first team opportunities are going to be extremely limited if Adebayor joins.

Joe. Posted 14 July 2009 Posted 14 July 2009 Jo is at Everton... Did he actually sign permanently there then? Must have missed that one.
Ultra Posted 14 July 2009 Posted 14 July 2009 I think he signed on a season-long loan, as Everton couldn't afford his asking price.
lildave3 Posted 14 July 2009 Posted 14 July 2009 Did he actually sign permanently there then? Must have missed that one. I think he signed on a season-long loan, as Everton couldn't afford his asking price. Yeah another loan. I think he's absolutely shit if i'm honest.
syston_fox Posted 14 July 2009 Posted 14 July 2009 And Caicedo wants out.... you can't blame him really.
Darkzzz_ Posted 15 July 2009 Posted 15 July 2009 I must admit I am looking forward to the coming premiership season more than any other for a long while. I think I am looking forward to Tevez returning to OT in the blue.
Guest Chocolate Teapot Posted 15 July 2009 Posted 15 July 2009 The fact he gets into the very good Dutch squad, must be proof that he is a world class player. An exceptional young talent, he's only 24.Trust me they do not need to strengthen that area of the pitch. The only players I can think of who's better is de Rossi, but even he had been below-par last season. There is Marcos Senna, but he's 32. It's my opinion though. P.S to the guy who said they need more defensive midfielders: let's not forget Gareth Barry who can play in a defensive mid role aswell like he does for England, so how can they possibly need more defensive midfielders? Hargreaves, Alonso, Senna, De Rossi, Veloso, Diarra, other Diarra, Carrick, Mascherano, Busquests, Toure, Keita, That Ukrainan bloke, Essien, Obi Mikel all loads loads better than him!
lcfc_jme Posted 15 July 2009 Posted 15 July 2009 I want the wheels to spectacularly fall right off the Man City wagon before it even gets going, to be fair. They're the new Chelsea. Their spending is outrageous and is only made to look slightly ok by Real Madrid's lunacy with money.
BoneDog Posted 15 July 2009 Posted 15 July 2009 Why do highly paid footballers turn into girls? Has anyone seen the back page of the Mirror today? He's got on some girls pink tinted glasses and a girls headband. He looks lovely Men who follow fashion to that extent are a bit weird in my opinion
Ultra Posted 15 July 2009 Posted 15 July 2009 I must admit I am looking forward to the coming premiership season more than any other for a long while. I think I am looking forward to Tevez returning to OT in the blue. I'm sure word like "judas", "greedy" and "b'stard" will be much in evidence. He's hardly moved to Eastlands to advance his career, has he?
lildave3 Posted 15 July 2009 Posted 15 July 2009 Adebayor passed a medical. I can't believe they've actually signed another striker One I hate too Ridiculous.
syston_fox Posted 15 July 2009 Posted 15 July 2009 Ok even I'm starting to get confused by all these strikers. I randomly decided to do some transfers on FIFA and try to find some way of fitting all the signings in.... it's just not happening unless you get rid of at least two of Robinho, SWP, Ireland and Bellamy. The Tevez and Santa Cruz signings I could just about understand but £25m for Adebayor? He's simply not needed!
lildave3 Posted 15 July 2009 Posted 15 July 2009 And they're still chasing Terry apparently. I personally don't think they stand a chance of getting him, but if they did, i'd be a bit worried if I was one of the big four
Jam Posted 15 July 2009 Posted 15 July 2009 Hargreaves, Alonso, Senna, De Rossi, Veloso, Diarra, other Diarra, Carrick, Mascherano, Busquests, Toure, Keita, That Ukrainan bloke, Essien, Obi Mikel all loads loads better than him! Already said Senna and deRossi try reading my post. Hargreaves? He's about dead, riddled with injuries. Essien - more of a centre mid and even plays in a slightly more attacking role for Ghana. Carrick - Lost his place to Gareth Barry in the England team, who's also a Man city player. Busquests - let's face it, you just saw him in the confedrations cup where he had a decent tournament, can't base opinions of players from one tournanment otherwise Baros would be world class, . Veloso - Unproven at international level, plays a bit part role for Portugal. Think the only reason you said this guy is cause he's pretty good on footy manager, next you'll be saying keirrisons's better than eto'o Other diarra, I assume you mean mahamadou - Lost his place to Lassana Diarra in the Real Madrid squad. Lassana Diarra- Dosen't get in the french starting 11 ahead of jeremy toulalan. Kieta - Don't know too much about this guy, plays well for Mali. Obi Mikel - have a day off, haha. And yes Toure and mascherano are better players. I don't even know why I'm replying to you, the point I tried to make from the start was to the muppet who said Man city desperately needed more defensive midfielders !!!! Man city do not any more defensive Mid's, Kompany, Barry, De jong. Enough. kthxbi.

Man city do not any more defensive Mid's, Kompany, Barry, De jong. Enough. kthxbi. Or how about I watched a lot of Spanish football last season! Veloso was outstanding in the champions leaque, Arsenal wanted to buy him last summer, whether he's good on footy manager has no bearing to me. A lot of the reasons you've given are poor ones as well, whether diarra doesn't get in the french side, doesn't mean he's a rubbish player, he gets in a fairly decent Real Madrid side! And if you don't know why you're arguing then don't make silly remarks that don't stack up, otherwise people like me will pick up on them!!

Fox92 Posted 16 July 2009 Posted 16 July 2009 Hargreaves, Alonso, Senna, De Rossi, Veloso, Diarra, other Diarra, Carrick, Mascherano, Busquests, Toure, Keita, That Ukrainan bloke, Essien, Obi Mikel all loads loads better than him! I think the ones I have selected are better than de Jong. Personally I like de Jong but surely if he was the best defensive midfielder in the world he would be at somewhere better than Manchester City - no disrespect. Doesn't Pirlo play in a sort of DM role? And what about Torsten Frings??

I know, I think it is called greed - ecsecially on Tevez, Barry and Adebayors part for wanting to leave there clubs to go there!
