Not sure, but I remember with Milner and Nasri in particular that it was obvious they were on the way to City. Nasri constantly booed by the Tarquins against Liverpool and a post match cheerio from the Villa fans for Milner (can't remember who they played )

I don't for a second.I'm guessing they would be more in hope of the fans swaying his decision than him getting injured
Why can't people understand that though Woldfsburg will sell, they are doing it under duress as the player has asked to move (and city are in effect paying his loyalty bonus), and they'd prefer to keep the player.
They can't replace him for 50m. If they could, then city would also be looking at that player.

Don't think the Cologne fans will care much if he goes.

To be fair, unless I've heavily misjudged Wolfsburg, a club like that doesn't look to replace a 50m player with a 50m player. They look to replace him with a 15m player we cant afford to take a risk on, in the hope he grows into another 50m player.

The Kevin De Bruyne transfer saga looks to be at an end with reports in Germany claiming Manchester City have agreed a £50million deal with Wolfsburg for the Belgian midfielder.
City have been linked with the 24-year-old throughout the summer with the two clubs haggling over a suitable fee for both parties.
However, according to German newspaper Bild, Wolfsburg have accepted a £50m offer from the Premier League side and
De Bruyne notched up 16 goals and 20 assists in all competitions last season, form which saw City put him on their transfer list of targets.
The former Chelsea player has reportedly an offer of £7.2m-a-year long-term deal on the table, so Bild report the transfer is all but done.
