Every single a player is linked to us, the media makes a story up about how Chelsea are trying to hijack the deal. And when I say every single time, I mean EVERY SINGLE TIME. It's been happening for at least a year, now.
In July last year, they said it about Adebayor (who, we were told, was intending to snub City's millions to join the Rags). And a few days before we signed Tevez, he was alleged to be planning to "snub" us in favour of Chelsea Come to think of it, they even said it about Gareth Barry, who we were were reliably informed would "snub" us for Dipperpool before the start of last season.
No lessons were learnt from last season's lies and media silliness, and they are doing the same thing all over again. A week ago, the NOTW were particularly enthusiastic in their reporting of the fiction that Silva and Yaya were to turn City down in favour of joining Chelsea. Both players signed for City within a few days of these non stories appearing the.
As the WC limps to it's end, out bollocks talking media are at it again. Last week Silva was to snub City for Chelsea' , and ditto Ya Ya. The tabloid timing on this was way off the mark, since both players signed within days of newspaper stories saying that they would not be signing. This came from Neil Ashton. who is allegedly a a professional journalist and sports editor of the NOTW. . This guy isn't just some deranged blogger or random phone in ranter. This is someone who is paid handsomely for writing utter bullshit. Neil Ashton is the walking personification of this attitude. He should be ITK, given how much he gets paid for it, but the sad fact is that he is no more in the know than I am. Mr Ashton and his ilk have persudaded millions of gullible readers that he has something worth saying. He does not. And his newspaper is officially the biggest bullshitter of all.
And now here we go again. The names and the transfer targets may change, but the lies stay the same..
Dzecko to snub City for chelsea;
Chelsea have been £30 million for Torries (or £50 million depending on your lying rag newspaper of choice) and are prepared to go higher,
Krasic to snub City because he's not interested in our millions, even though reading between the lines, it's clear that money is the only thing that he's interested in.
Oh just fuck off.
simon23 said:if zins post is accurate then i can see some similarities between the kaka and eto'o sagas and what may happen with torres
we were prepared to blow competitors out of the water for those two but in the end they ended up going to other clubs probably for less than what we were offering
i think its ultimately up to the player where he goes and not the selling club....
therefore we have to work hard on selling torres the vision (which im usre we are)
depends wheter torres wants to take the hard route (like tevez has stated he wanted to) or whether he wants to take the easy route of guaranteed success and go to chelski/barca

I don't want to have a dig or anything, but every story that I've seen that links Torres to another club, Chelsea seemed to be the main interested party with City also interested. The story has never been 'it's City's deal and Chelsea are going to hijack it', the story is Chelsea are front of the queue to get him and City are also interested.
Obviously, I can see where you are coming from and we have been linked with hijacking a number of your deals e.g. Tevez and Silva, but they were also reported as City being the main interested party. In the way the Torres saga is being reported the roles are reversed.
I'm not saying what the papers are saying is entirely true, it has been highly fabricated, however parts of it are true. Abramovich is flying out to South Africa to help with the 2018 Russian World Cup bid and to enjoy the World Cup semi-finals and final, however, the news I'm getting from people that work at Cobham that we have put in a bid of £48 Million. I don't know for sure what City have done, but I've heard various tidbits about a similar offer being made. As Nando has said, he is going to entertain any approaches until after the World Cup. Out of respect for the player, Liverpool are taking the same approach too, so bids are being made but won't be negotiated for a week or two.
Chelsea have always said that they will pay the millions should the right player, and this will be a proper fight for the player as Abramovich is determined to get Torres, to the point he will go anywhere up to £75 Million (which I think is excessive). I'd imagine City are probably working at the same kind of level.
