Looks like bollocks but just appeared on line - old article updated/revamped? Anyone know anything about the owner of the site who apparently appears on all these forums ? Any thoughts ? Seems way out of our price range to me given FFP - maybe trying to send a shot in the direction of Porto regarding Fernando ?

I think this is from last year mate......The date has june 23rd 2014 but it talks about City's transfer talks with Fernandinho....unless the owner of this site got mixed up and put Fernandinho instead of Fernando.....no other sources are talking about this! The Daily star report it quotes is from 2 June 2013.....no I'm guessing this is old rumours.......

It is oh so quiet at the moment. Was always going to be over this period of the world cup. Things may start moving next week with half the teams home.

A very decent summer for me would be:-

Sagna, Caballero, Fernando, Mangala and Sanchez in

Rodders, Micah, Sinclair, Alvaro out (only if he is genuinley unhappy and it freed up the funds for Sanchez)

Samir, Aleks, Jimmy, Joe and Edin to sign new contracts

Very quiet.

All the players we are linked with are back up players, not a single player who will walk in the starting Eleven yet.

very much so BBS. the squad as a whole would be so much stronger and real world class quality in depth!

What a difference a day makes.

Yesterday I was just about to think what someone else had posted that Navas to Barca with Sanchez to ourselves and flogging Negredo because he has personal issues with Manchester or maybe his girlfriend does. Then Bang, out of the blue it seems on the face of it Yaya is having a go at the club, but when I have read the reports in full it seems not it seems as though he is blaming himself for not requesting to be with his brother rather than go to Abu Dhabi. Lets assume we get the targets we want and Yaya leaves along with Negredo, is the squad this year stronger, the same or weaker.

Players in brackets are who the new player replaces. (17 foreign players, 4 Association players +1 homegrown+ 1 player who will qualify under 21 rules (i think)


....................................Hart /Cabello (Pants)

Zab/Sagna (Richards)....Komps/New CB(Lescott)....MDM?Nasty (Under21)....Kolorov/Clichy


Navas/Lopes(or Milner if he stays)....Fernandhino/Rodwell(Yaya)....Fernando(Barry)/Garcia

...................................Nasri/Silva...........................................................

................................Dzeko/Sanchez (Negredo)/Aguero/Jovetic

Players on the books and not included above Boyata, Rekik + academy stars of the future.

I would say the defence will be much improved especially with Fernando in front of it. Midfield weaker by the fact that Yaya has gone but work wise improved and allows Fernandhino to move forward. Striker wise improved especially if Jovetic stays fit and with Sanchez either operating from midfield or as a striker I think that has improved. Overall a slight improvement. Enough to retain title? unsure.

What about buy someone to replace Yaya? Then it is title winning squad.
