Re: Eliaquim Mangala I imagine deal is now done but won't be announced until Monday evening as Porto will announce it to the stock exchange first. Similar to the Fernando transfer.

If we get Barkley I think the club will let Yaya go which will free up an overseas spot. If we can replace Yaya I think he will go as we don't want a big voice like Yaya, vice captain and all, disrupting the dressing room.

Yeah I'm a fan of Milner but looks like he wants to move on & always thought Everton would be a move for him, just seems to fit plus he is close with Gaz Baz. If it meant we could bring in Barkley I'd be all for it.

Would expect it to be Ross Barkley as could imagine Milner being just the type of player Martinez would want at Everton. Would love to see Barkley at City.

Upgrade on Silva & Nasri are you insane?! For me Silva & Nasri are our Xavi & Iniesta they make our attacking play tick, Aguero is far more effective when he has them behind him. If you are a fan watch Samirs interview on the OS, he is spot on about bad luck....against Barca we had Aguero...

Re: Eliaquim Mangala The Mangala situation is starting to annoy me almost as much as the Yaya one! I really don't understand the hesistance on his part... Does he have a friend at the club? Sagna - Check! Does he have fellow countrymen? Nasri, Clichy and again Sagna- Check! Does he have an...

Happy Birthday Tolm! Hope you have a goodun! Heard Antoine Griezmann is to leave Sociedad & we have been linked. Anything in it that you know of fella?

I hope so, would love to see him at City! I reckon Pellers would still want him here, doesn't seem the kind of guy to hold a grudge.

A new Tolmie thread and an active Isco thread just makes the summer perfect!!!! lol! Isco still the player I would most like to see at City, we always look a bit off when Spanish Dave or Nasri are missing. Plus Dave needs a break here and there and having Isco step in would keep us playing at...

Tolm if James Rodriguez moves to Real Madrid do we think City will enquire about Isco? or is that interest in the player gone now?

Barkley or Pogba could be a risk but with great reward? God I love this criptic stuff in the Transfer Forum lol

Any truth in the Barkely rumours Tolm? or is it just press gossip?

Vinny plays on the left side for Belgium to accomdate Van Buyten on the right, he also played that side when Kolo was in our team. I think if Benatia comes in he will play right side and Vinny left. He can do it and dont think it will impact him much, Terry plays left side and is right footed...

If this mornings reports we have agreed a £30m deal with Roma for Benatia are true and take in the £12m for Fernando as well as bringing GK Willy then we must be selling at least one of Yaya or Beast to fund a buy of Sanchez.

My thoughts exactly, if we have enquired about Astori for CB its because we need money for elsewhere due to FFP restrictions. It feels like Beast and Yaya going is inevitable now, we should hopefully move quickly to make sure we can replaces them. Sanchez is already linked with dippers, Arsenal...

Re: Yaya Toure His reputation & legacy is now tarnished at City for me, I for one would sell him while he is still sellable at a decent price! One thing is for sure, even if he stays, I would want Zaba to take the vice captain role. Him & Vinny are the leaders of this team & show respect for...

Did we ever find out if transfer fees were spread across the years of the contract? This would help with the FFP restriction e g 50m split across a 5 year contract.

I doubt we will see anything like this again to be honest. I remember the season we had this kit that Etihad wanted the sponsor to be more prominent as it didn't stand out with white on sky blue. Home kit has had dark lettering since & away kits has also been contrasting colours to stand out...

The most important thing for City is to get their answers from Yaya quickly. My worry is he will force his move late in the transfer window and the replacements may have already been snapped up by other clubs. Talk this morning that Chelsea are going in for Pogba, constant talk of Man U in for...

From what I have seen of Fofana he looks like he could be our Pogba as he has bags of talent and is a beast at the EDS level. I am sure Patrick and Manuel are discussing him (& other players) frequently about when he can step up. This pre-season is a great opportunity for Fofana, Lopes, Hiwula...
