I hope we haven't ended up paying part of his wages like we had to do with the Adebayor deal.

(I'm joking before the forum police start)

With AJ gone only Yaya will score regularly from 25 yards. Cant see us repeating as top dogs unless this is fixed.
We heard you the first time, idiot.
Bet your a nice person to know. Opps my mistake you act like a troll so you probably are one.
 
one trick (cut in from the right, shoot with left) pony with no pace.

He's found his right level.
his England career is over.
 
AJ out, Sinclair in at close to half the price and probably half the wages with FFP looming and no detrimental impact on the squad that I can see

Good business I'd say

Did we really only get £10m for Adam Johnson? And handed a chunk of it back to him in a lump sum? While Sunderland paid £14m for a relegated donkey like Fletcher? And Wolves also got £10m-plus for Jarvis? Only a year after Liverpool paid Sunderland £18m for a borderline championship standard player like Henderson?
Am I the only one who sees something wrong with this picture?
Who the hell is doing these deals? Weiss and Johnson gone for a combined £11.4m, less pay-offs.
Terrible, terrible business. Even fucking Wolves and Jez fucking Moxey are making us look like mugs.
Fuck me, some things never change at City. Buy high, sell low. It's in our DNA. From Malcolm's disastrous second coming to Clive Wilson, Trevor Francis, Anelka and Sturridge, we have always been a soft touch.
If we ever sold Vinnie, we would probably lose money on him. Jesus fucking wept.
I'd laugh if I thought you weren't serious. We've lost a player who frankly flattered to deceive almost every time he came on, and made £5-10m profit (depending on reports) yep buy high sell low.....
at the time we signed him, we paid at the very top end of his value as a young, inexperienced championship player.
At the time we sold him, we received the very bottom end of his value as an England international winger and title winner with a good goal record, not yet at his peak and with years left on his contract.
So yes, once again City buy high, sell low.
Take off the blue tinted glasses. We have probably dragged in £10m or so combined for Johnson, Weiss and Ade. That is shit. Awful business.

£10-15m for a player that only has himself to blame. Minimal work rate has cost him big. Most blues have seen him as at most, an impact player. Good business making a profit on a player that will struggle to get another England cap.

Yeah he is that good he just signed for sunderland, being an england international means nothing the england team is crap.
 
Sad to see him go as I think he has potential, but realistically we can do better...

Not sure Scott Sinclair is a real replacement though.

You were doing well until the England cap bit, he'll play every week at s'land, therefore nailed on for England, hopefully MoN will tell him to drop this nonsense of playing on the wrong wing.
 
Thanks AJ. I loved you at first and wanted you to be so much better.

I am sure you will do well for a while at Sunderland... But 10mill is a great price for your lazy pisshead ways.

Not based on the lack of effort put in last week, when woy was trying other players. Hope I'm wrong, but I can't see him getting any better now.

There's only so much bad news a man can take.
