Napoli didn't look like likeable destination for Balotelli when we played there... I got the feeling he hates them and vice versa
Mancio said:in no way napoli can pay balotelli's wages. no way.
Can see this one hotting up over the next few weeks.johnny crossan said:Manchester City have made first contact with Napoli over a deal for Edinson Cavani, according to reports in Italy.
Speculation has been rife all season about Roberto Mancini's interest in the striker but, with just one game remaining in the Premier League, the Italian boss is reported to have finally firmed up his interest.
Fifth-placed Napoli need a miracle to qualify for next season's Champions League.
They are three points behind third-placed Udinese and fourth-placed Lazio are one point ahead but the Naples side has the best goal difference of trio.
Cavani is unlikely to hang around without the chance to play in Europe's top club competition and City will be able to offer that, with the almost inevitable added lure of being Premier League champions.
La Gazzetta dello Sport newspaper reports that City are willing to offer a lump sum and one of their surplus players as a makeweight, but Napoli are only interested in £40m cash deal for their prized asset.
BringBackSwales said:I want cavani badly, he destroyed us over there. He's a good player but most of all he's quick, very quick.
Keep tevez and add him and we will be flying.
But maybe they could make up any shortfall with a free supply of hookersMancio said:in no way napoli can pay balotelli's wages. no way.
LoveCity said:Cavani only makes around £38,000/week allegedly (going by "Juventus will double Cavani's salary to €4.5 million a year" reports which works out at him earning £38k/week now) which is incredibly low for a player of his standing. Even if we tripled what he earned he'd still not be one of our highest paid players.
But in Cavani's own words "I don't play for money."

Maybe his attitude as well as his ability is what Mancini likes, you'll never get less than 100% from him and he tracks back all the time.

Can see Dzeko going but we will have Guidetti back who will provide us with 4 CF options, but in many games only 1 CF will be chosen especially if we sign Hazard.
IMO
Tevez, Aguero, Mario and Guidetti a good 4 to have.
Our money needs to be spent improving the team (Hazard, Bale) strenghtening the squad (CB, DM)

If Tevez, Aguero get injured we would be fucked! ...Cavani and Lavezzi is a must. sell the rest and loan Guidetti out till xmass then we can see where we are injury wise
