And add the fact that the Sunday press are reporting it as well, then it all looks good methinks...

Eden Hazard?

Superb piece. But one picky point... De Gea didn't fumble the ball in the FA cup game, Lindegaard was in goals that day. Still excellent though.

Over two years ago I said on here that Johnson was finished as a professional footballer at City and got slaughtered for it. Maybe some people see the signs quicker than others...?

Martinez, Lavezzi and a couple of decent quality youngsters for back up in midfield and full back.

Re: Liverpool Thread 2012 The day Swansea beat us 1-0, every radio station and newspaper told the world about the genius of Rodgers as a coaching icon; how he had out-thought and out-fought "moneybags" Manchester City. Everyone on here seemed to be talking about Rodgers as if he was the next...

Since Abramovich announced that he was supporting Platini and his FFPR initiatives, in the past two years they have splashed something approaching £200m. How does that work? And I reckon there's at least another £60m lined up for this summer on top of the Hazard deal. We need to get that...

I always feared Chelsea winning the Champions League would see this sort of transfer activity. I'm not sure what benefits Chelsea winning the Champions League would bring to City, but there will now be plenty of competition with them now. Had they lost to Bayern they were fucked this season...

Are we there yet?

Well I think he tweeted last week that Hazard was a done deal. So he must mean that.

Ah well, I did say that if Chelsea won the Champions League (and way too many City fans were supporting them!) then it would have a detrimental impact upon us. What makes our enemies weaker makes us stronger...

Yeah, but he saves us a fortune in not having to buy shin-pads...

I was extremely pleased that Tevez was incorporated into the team at the back end of last season and his inclusion was a huge factor in us winning the Premiership. But would I keep him for next season? No. We need younger, better and more focussed. He is still a mighty fine player, but I feel...

Decent in the air.

Don't be fooled by the floppy ears and doe eyes... they're evil bastards! I almost got killed by one of them... the leg meat stuck in my throat and I almost choked!

I'm very surprised at all the comments on this thread about how the rags could afford Kagawa or Hazard or Gaitan... but only the one. There is still a view that the rags can't afford to seriously invest. I think you'll find that whenever the rags have been challenged for supremacy they have...

Steve Kinsey. He was my first thought as well!

We will write off far more than that this close season with the departures of Adebayor, Bridge, Santa Cruz and Kolo Toure! Didn't we write off £12m to offload Bellamy?

For £6m a very decent signing. Is a far better player than he showed at Anfield, and we're still in need of a quarter-back in midfield. It took Lucas Leiva two years to get the "knowledgeable Kopites" to realise he's a good player.

No one ever mentions QPR buying survival this season. Or West Ham buying promotion. Or Liverpool buying the Carling Cup. Or Chelsea buying the Champions League. Or Fulham buying their Premiership status Or Wigan becoming bigger than Bolton, Blackburn, Burnley, Blackpool and Preston even...
