anybody else excited?

about tevez fuckin off I mean.....gutted we're losing a top notch player but we now have the excitement of seeing who were gonna sign to replace him.....we'll surely be seeing a massive signing heading our way to replace tevez (and no john Barnes hasn't come out of retirement) that we wouldn't have seen had he stayed.....should be a very interesting month or so. bollocks to being miserable about tevez fucking off let's look forward to the future and his replacement.

I'm always pleased when trouble-causing players leave the club, especially one's who contributed nothing for the last 5 months of the season.

And the start of the Captain Kompany Era

Not over excited, whoever we get in to replace will be overpriced and have to hit the ground running as Tevez will be leaving some fairly special boots to fill, I can honestly see us getting stung with the out-in deal.
But it would be good if the Star's headlines were close to being true.

Also, really hoping that Balotelli and Dzeko have injury-free seasons and can play a lot of games as i'm excited to see how they do up front. I get the feeling if one of them gets on a run then they'll be banging them in for fun.

they seem like theyve got a good relationship off the pitch, this could help how they play together

Only in our wildest dreams will Ed or Mario get remotely close to what tevez brought to us, they are 2 totally different players. tevez is one of the best players any of us have ever seen, the times he ran across the opposition back 4 making them punt the ball was at times nearly as important as the goals he scored. Will we play a different system now, i dont know. I like Ed but so far we havnt played to his strengths, i am not sure we ever will, Mario is anyones guess. As a few have said this is a crucial decision for RM and one he has to get right, i dont envy him on this one

Wow.

I agree, tho let's hope that whoever comes in develops a good understanding with Silva, like Tevez has.

I kinda lean towards David Villa as the replacement, despite him turning 30 in December, for this reason.
