big update on Johnson...and more

Been on hols last couple of weeks, did I miss anything...

Hope this brings a little bit of sunshine back with me.

Have just learned this afternoon the following....


We are now firmly in the mix for Glenn Johnson, having only asked for updates up until Sunday night.

We have since offered to include Benjani on top of any fee- we still owe £3.5m based on future appearances (ones he certainly won't be afforded in a City shirt)

There is no actual fee, only that we will match cash offers - currently £18m from Liverpool and Chelsea.

Johnson is now into a serious rethink, having initially counted us out.


Tevez is a City player in all but name - we have a five year agreement in principle - money is closer to Robbie's than previous speculation led everyone to believe.

City expect to announce a formal verbal statement by Friday.


Re Samuel Eto'o. City have entered into an agreement of mutual understanding with both the player's solicitor and Barca.

The solicitor is flying into London on Friday. Eto'o is awaiting to agree a loyalty payment of £1m loyalty payment due to him from Barca, as part of his contract to reward Champs success.

Barca quoted City last week £26m for Yaya Toure, a real interest was declared by Hughes, hence the new contract offer by Barca to Toure was derisory.

The only speculative part of the info given to me, Kolo is crucial to this deal going forward,

Apologies if I've posted anything that's already been mentioned on here previously.

If this was true how do you get Yaya in the team ?

Either Ireland or SWP would miss out as Barry will start .....

he has just won the champions league and is probably one of the best dm's in the world

and would be very well suited to the prem

Johnson Toure Kompany Lescott

Toure Ireland De Jong

Tevez Eto'o Robinho


Bench: Ned, Zab, SWP, Bellemy, Petrov & Keeper (Bridge and Richards!)

Edit - Christ I forgot Barry.
 
Cheers for the info, you sound genuine and it's a good read. My only problem is though, that wern't you the one who was convinced Mourinho would be our manager? So I'm not gonna get any tattoo's just yet lol.
 
If we could pull of three out of the 4 plus another centre half added to Barry then that would be a fantastic window

click 'profile'.

click 'search user's posts'.

try to find previous 'ITK' statements, and, using the gift of hindsight, decide wether they appear to have been genuinely informed.

make your own mind.

Just done that...and he did have a lot to say about Mourinho coming, which clearly hasnt happened.

Im not going to attempt to discredit the OP but, personally, i dont believe.
