We'll spend, Chelsea will spend, the rags will probably sign a class player.
Wenger might stop hiding the cheque book away.
Mourinho return at chelsea.
Tottenham possibly losing two of their better players.
Liverpool possibly losing suarez but with a bit of money to spend.
Yep... its shaping up to be an interesting summer.

Definitely not a summer to be dithering every top 4 place will be up for grabs, don't think any team will be guaranteed to be in it. With Mourinho going to chelsea along with falcao (rumour), they will be much much stronger in the league. Along with that united will spend on a class player or 2. The likes of arsenal and spurs are only going to improve as well.

Not only that but the biggest clubs across Europe will be spending too. Bayern got Pep+Gotze, Madrid and Barca will no doubt strengthen too. It's turning out to be one heck of a summer for every big club around Europe. It's really important that we get our targets as early as possible!

This is the point. If we fail to add real quality this summer we'll get left behind domestically and in Europe. Thankfully, Txiki looks to be getting his act together with the Fernandinho and Cavani pursuits.
three clubs with the arguably the most cash on hand (us, PSG and chelsea) 2 out of those 3 are definitely getting new managers and are going to spend massively
think about who all could be on the move this summer and the fees it would involve to get them:
Ronaldo
Cavani
Falcao
Fernandinho
Isco
Bale
Dzeko
Goetze
Lewandowski
Jovetic
Beneteke
Marquinhos
Neymar
and those are just ones off the top of my head that could be moving each of these fees is going to at minimum 20m pounds most likely. not to mention the managers that will be changing clubs its just absurd. easily going to be the biggest in memory

hey guys I tried to start a new topic about what I'm about to say but I guess it wouldn't let me so I'll go ahead and say it in here because I haven't heard anyone mention this yet...

Apparently Guardiola (spelling?) doesn't want him playing for Bayern next year. For me, he's one of the top players in any position in the world. I'm sure he wouldn't be cheap but neither will Cavanni or whoever else we bring in.
We all know that City play VERY narrow and lack pace (which has been exposed in CL and domestically). Robben would not only remedy the lack of speed, but he can play wide on either side of the pitch. Besides Milner, who do City have that can threaten the opponents down the flanks? Sinclair? Yeah right, he'll be gone anyway. Not that Adam Johnson was a world class player but at the beginning of the championship season he certainly contributed but hes gone (not that I really miss him). Nasri and especially Silva are interior players who don't look comfortable nor trouble the opposition too much when playing out wide. They're both natural central middys. The majority of our wide attacking play this season came from Zabaletta makaing a run. This season there were a large handful of games where we lacked a plan B, when teams would drop back on us and we couldn't pass our way through them because we didn't spread them out.
...just some food for thought.

Hi Nana welcome to the forums (unless your a rotter :p )
He is an expensive plan b who is well known as a bit of a prissy little so and so.
I couldn't stand Balo's pissing around and general attitude so i doubt i will like his.
I fair shout but to expensive and younger better options are what we should be looking at i feel.

If we dawdle we'll win nothing. Last summer we were in a position of immense power,we sat on our hands. now we are just another big club in the mix, we should be out of sight.
That is criminal.
