Fernando Torres [Merged]

[justalittlemoreeffortade]

Well in that case, I wonder if Nike will lean on him to sign :D

Don't know why they would, but they might do. It's all a joke anyway, why the fuck should god damn sponsors have anything to do with football? Circus it is.

The interesting thing atm is that the number 9 shirt is available as Bojinov has left so imagine the new home shirt being released as well as a new striker taking up the shirt.... good reason to buy the shirt

Re: TORRES EVEN MONEY

I don't think he will come to city. as another poster said earlier, the deal is probably off so mancini can now mention it in the hope that it will bring about a rapid conclusion to the deals involving other targets... Dzeko? Balotelli?

Personally I would rather not buy from an English team simply because that then gives them cash on the hip and kick starts spending of our top 4 rivals.

Also, Torres probably needs 8 weeks to get fully match fit folliowing his injury in the world cup final, i'd rather he was a dipperpool asset sat on the bench than ours.

But no matter how much money we give them , who could replace torres atm . there are not many world class strikers around atm, they could improve their squad thats a given but no matter how much we give them there isnt anyone who can replace torres. Also liverpool isnt exactly an attractive proposition is it , Joe Cole i suspect went there as they gave him the most money , I would make a guess that if we had offered cole more money he would be playin with us this season . They are on a downward spiral and the money wont all go on new players , some will have to be injected into the debt . I think we should offer 30 million and ireland and roque kill 2 birds with one stone , get him on the cheap and offload some of the players that dnt look like having a future at the club.

I definitely think you're a Liverpool fan :-)

I'm sorry but the commercialism of football is everything I grew up hating as a City fan. Football is the one thing I thought would be left alone but nope, the bastards had to go and touch that as well. It's pathetic and needs to be shaken up badly. We all said the same before Mansour came in as well I just won't change my team.

A fair point but I would rather not fund them in the transfer market.

I'm glad someone else gets irritated by these "X won't come to City, end of" type proclaimations.

You don't know, like everyone else.

i particually like it when people say xxxx isn't coming to city END OFF
make's me chuckle every time

 

[SWPISHOME]

I think if we get Balotelli then we wont put in a bid for Torres, Torres still didnt come out and say he was staying at Liverpool so I wouldnt be suprised if he wanted to leave to join us.

i must have missed the dippers' billionaire benefactor swooping in.

their financial situation is dire and getting worse by the day. something has to give, and they effectively have 3 assets they can offload to ease this. gerrard, mascherano, and torres. gerrard appears to be going nowhere, so that leaves the other 2. i'm not sure the sale of masch alone would change things much.

 

[lkmcfc]

To be honest I don't believe all these 'itk's' all they seem to do is say something like 'we will sign suchabody by the end of the week' and they get it from links what have already said all that. When the deal doesn't happen in that week they say something like 'it's close, negations broke down of sone other bollocks. No disrespect to tolmie, I respect what he has done and that but all that he has ever said is that we are in for players that have been strongly linked with or made a bid for. I could do that. He has stated a 'wow' signing, well we obviously will get one. We are the richest club in the world. And suggested we are not in for Torres because we didn't get linked for 2 week but bobby said we are so, I dint believe all that shit until it's on OS.
