Re: Sagna signing confirmed (page 109)

Interesting wording on the club website:

"The 31-year-old full-back will complete his transfer from Arsenal on a three year contract following the World Cup in Brazil, where he is currently on duty with the French squad."

Do you think we're leaving ourselves a get out clause in case he breaks his leg (wouldn't be the first time) in Brazil?

What a POS newspaper, including signing on fee and bonuses in his wages -> <a class="postlink" href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2656930/Bacary-Sagna-joins-Manchester-City-three-year-150-000-week-deal-leaving-Premier-League-rivals-Arsenal.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/footba ... senal.html</a>

They did say

"Sagna has signed a £150,000-a-week three-year-deal at Manchester City, which is inclusive of add-ons and bonuses"

HOW MUCH??!! .... he's a back up right back .... Zabba should be on £300k a week if thats the scale now.

shut up

Welcome! Good addition/cover for Zabba. Somebody already mentioned about somebody younger who can learn, and eventually take over from Zabba and if Drury is performing well for EDS, maybe thats our plan. Does this mean Richards is definately off now?

Backup to Zabaleta, and on a free transfer..what's not to like :)
Clichy and Nasri will help him get acclimatized to the new team
His hair-stylist needs to be changed though

Welcome Sagna!

Re: Sagna signing confirmed (page 109)

second best right back in the league after Zabba - brilliant capture

That'd be Coleman ATM. But Zabaleta + Sagna are definitely the best RB pairing to have in the league. He can also play at CB which is a massive bonus.

Javi Garcia CAN play at CB...

Re: Sagna signing confirmed (page 109)

Navas/Zab and Sagna choose any two from three, no chance are we going to let him rot on the bench especially if Milner decides he wants out. Plus cover for Centre Back and left back if needed. Perfect signing and I don't care how much he earns.

On 67K a week after tax
