[Centurions]

Confirmed as 4+1. We're laughing.

Link? It's confirmed that it's 5 HG but I've not seen confirmation of the breakdown.

Superb. We're practically untouched by FFP.

Inb4 a Wenger bitchfest

Fantastic if true. It means that players aren't going to be worried they'll miss out on CL football too.

Perfect result for us considering, cheers for that.

That'll get the 'cafe' going!

I suspect we will get Westwood who came out of the academy as second to Joe. Milner wants away therefore

1. Zabaleta
2. Kompany
3. Demichelis
4. Kolarov
5. Fernandinho
6. Jovetic
7. Yaya
8. Navas
9. Nasri
10. Silva
11. Aguero
12. Dzeko
13. Negredo
14. Fernando
15. Sagna

16. Mangala/Benatia(?)

17. Hart HG
18. Clichy HG
19. Rodwell HG - Milner may leave
20. Westwood HG
21. Boyata CT


Nastasic is on the 'B' list, I've left out Garcia and am presuming Richards is gone.


The above is why I don't think we will be after the likes of Isco,Di Maria, Sanchez or any other player, we just cannot fit them in an almost perfect squad. If we lose out on Fabregas as replacement for Milner I suspect we will just bite our lip till next year and put Zab in his place on the right in front of Sagna in the same way on occasions we put Kolorov in front of Clichy. Fabregas is a quality player who is unique because he is homegrown. Garcia will have to be content with Prem league and domestic cups.

City can always run Milner deal down so he will leave next year for free in emergency. But still great news for us, untouched basically by FFP.

There's no way we would do that to Milner if he wants to leave. I'm not convinced he wants/will go anyway, it would be a shame.
