Very funny(if you look most of our buys ended up the end of July begining of Aug), it's something that all managers say to try to force transfers, if you say.......Ohhhhhhh we will me looking to do deals up until the last minute, selling clubs will feel no level of urgency and make no mistake as much as there are clubs that need to buy, there are also clubs despite what they might say need to sell.....Bluemoon115 said:And he did get it all done before the World Cup didn't he?DontLookBackInAnger said:I recall Hughes saying much the same thing last summer too.
Lmarkham-blueblood said:fbloke said:Liverpool are in the toilet and Benitez has gone according to every newspaper on the planet.
Torres and Gerrard are close to the exit which leaves the bare bones of a squad for the new manager.
Arsenal are likely to lose Fabregas and are up against Mourinho and Real Madrid in the transfer market.
And City are hours away from announcing a decent signing or two (according to some very strong rumours all over the place).
Are we about to see the most fruitful of summers and the very best of times to be a Blue.
we are the most potent force in world football now, we have the recorces to acheive anything and everything: a fruitful history, tremendous and loyal support, a young successful manager, boundless wealth and a superb youth system over several countries.
dont let the media dampen your hopes, it is not a matter of time, its within 3 seasons that we will win several major honours

Sorry to disagree but till proper silverwear arrives at COM, City will just be a club with loads of money.
Success in the modern game is driven by money, seeing as City have lots, that makes us well placed...............gregglake said:Lmarkham-blueblood said:we are the most potent force in world football now, we have the recorces to acheive anything and everything: a fruitful history, tremendous and loyal support, a young successful manager, boundless wealth and a superb youth system over several countries.

Having no money means you are fucked, as for how the outside world looks upoin us, it really matters not. Cast your mind back to the days of SGE and we shopped in the same market as Portsmouth and Boro, now its Inter and Barcelona.tonea2003 said:DontLookBackInAnger said:Success in the modern game is driven by money, seeing as City have lots, that makes us well placed...............
being well placed is not enough(granted it helps massively), we wont be seen to be anything till the first pot is won.
