As reported this morning by QS from Innsbruck, site of the withdrawal of Manchester City Mancini, would rise to a rumor transfers strong enough, the club champion Inghliterra, in fact, would put cross-hairs again Daniele De Rossi. The Citizens have prepared a check for 30 million euros, a figure that has made hesitating Baldini and Sabatini.

£25-30 million for a 29 year old???? No cheers

That goes for RVP as well, Now if they were both 24-25 and coming into the peak of their careeres then maybe.

Midfielders like Yaya and De Rossi peak when they get around their thirties. It is experience you are buying and that is invaluable.

I desperatley want this transfer to go through, our midfield would be unreal!!

Anybody who doubts De Rossi should watch the Euro's again. He was a boss!

Not his biggest fan going forward but he won't need to here as we are beaming with talent in that department.

What we need is a world class CDM who's World Class and not only stops play but also creates it. He and Yaya would be truly immense and I can't see how teams will get the better of us.

A CB, Winger and RVP to close the show now. Corzola of Malaga is getable for 20mill euros and RVP looks set, just need that CB now.

 

[Rammyblues]

just need that CB now.

Can't DDR play there as well?

More chance of M'Vila than De Rossi IMO.

I accept the experience argument, but ours is a team where there has to be an introduction, a transition.

That comes by being patient with slightly younger players than De Rossi.

De Rossi is good enough to hit the ground running, but we have existing personnel such as Barry, Milner and De Jong, to a lesser extent, to appease.

 

[NipHolmes]

Yeah but he'd start every game at CDM. He's in the elite of that position in the world. Like Barry, DeJong and then some.

At CB its looking like Skrtel is the man in the crosshairs. Liverpools player of the year.

I think so too. How quite that's been it would surprise me if we wad that famed 78k man.

Heard from that pal at Chelsea that Roman is keeping an eye on him. Romeu back to Barca? Mikel sale? Essien is shot to be fair. Makes sense. Still doubtful imo but it wouldn't shock me.

What are your thoughts on Corzola btw?

This is exactly where we need to not get hung up on our own importance. We still have some convincing to do with the top stars to see us as a credible destination in the same vein as the big boys. DDR is the best chance of winning the league again along with making a good dent in the CL and domestic cups. Buy someone less experienced, not as good, miss out by a whisker on all those things to the Rags or Chelsea and we're back below them in the pecking order. I really hope we're not hoping to defend our League crown and progress out of the CL groups on the back of Barry, Milner and De Jong as our central midfield, cos if Yaya is out for any length of time that dog just ain't gon' hunt.

 

[sam-caddick]

De Rossi for me should be our number 1 signing, there is no way of gettng Javi Martinez IMO, he is too Spanish to move away and will wait out on his Bilbao contract until Barcelona come calling.

Silva was different, he even had to move away to go to Spain being from the Canary Islands.

Luring De Rossi away though might be difficult as he may feel Roma have a chance of getting back into the Champions League this season.

Milan and Inter are going through serious transition, Napoli look like they are losing some of their top players, Di Natale is not going to be around much longer for Udinese which leaves Lazio and Roma with a good chance of securing Champions League spots. I do think however Juventus are and will dominate Italian football for the next couple of seasons though!

Carzola is okay. Great feet, either side.

Just think he would lack the directness our team require and the ball would continue to check and come back through the middle.

In essence, we are looking for that last man over. The one who receives the last past, the one whose pace is such, the opposition over compensates and ignores Aguero etc.

I suspect Tolmie that this thread has gained more credence from the fact De Rossi indicted he might be lured into playing in the prem league and maybe some put De Rossi in the world class bracket when you referred to signing established top drawer players. Must admit I was one of them.

Yep, De Rossi is right up there in the terms of the quality.

However, De Rossi's recent favourable comments about the Premier League I believe were just friendly lip service, having been asked before the Italy v England game.

A bit when Mancini was in the States and said how good it would be to sign Landon Donovan.

City aren't going to spend £30m on a guy they could have purchased for £8m less than six months back, out of some sort of agreement De Rossi felt to earn Roma serious cash.

Fanciful, surely?

There's also the fact that De Rossi is in the middle of a custody battle for his daughter in Rome so I doubt he would leave.

Far too many hurdles to a deal.

Cheers for that, crosses DDR off the list.<br /><br />-- Sun Jul 22, 2012 12:44 pm --<br /><br />Round
Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever spinning reel
Like a snowball down a mountain
Or a carnival balloon
Like a carousel that’s turning
Running rings around the moon

Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
Past the minutes of it's face
And the world is like an apple
Whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind !

Like a tunnel that you follow
To a tunnel of it's own
Down a hollow to a cavern
Where the sun has never shone,
Like a door that keeps revolving
In a half forgotten dream,
Or the ripples from a pebble
Someone tosses in a stream

Like a clock whose hands are sweeping ....

Keys that jingle in your pocket
Words that jangle in your head
Why did summer go so quickly ?
Was it something that you said ?
Lovers walk along a shore
And leave their footprints in the sand


Is the sound of distant drumming
Just the fingers of your hand ?
Pictures hanging in a hallway
And the fragment of this song
Half remembered names and faces
But to whom do they belong ?

He: when you knew
That it was over
You were suddenly aware
That the autumn leaves were turning
To the color
Of her hair !

She: when you knew
That it was over
In the autumn of goodbyes
For a moment
You could not recall the color
Of his eyes !

Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever spinning reel

As the images unwind
Like the circles
That you find
In the windmills of your mind !



Back to square one again.

I don't think we have a list. We're missing Cook big time this summer.

 

[Ray78]

Oh well, time for the next midfield target:(.

 

[Mancio]

Cheers for that, crosses DDR off the list.

I don't think we have a list. We're missing Cook big time this summer.

WHO ??

 

[LHarper]

Cheers for that, crosses DDR off the list.

I don't think we have a list. We're missing Cook big time this summer.

Read 'Richer Than God' by David Conn, specifically pages 243-247 and you'll learn all about the way Brian Marwood and the scouting department collate information on players and how Mancini has a spreadsheet full of players he likes.

No, its Yaya we miss. when he`s away.
