I would love it to happen, but I think anyone expecting Tevez and his pimp to shut their gobs and behave themselves for two whole years is being excessively optimistic

That is a very diplomatic way to put it. ;)

Not sure about that fella,if he was to move in this window which club would give him a three year contract or less and equal the terms he is on at City?

He can stay two more seasons on top dollar,run through brick walls knowing a hefty signing on fee awaits him on his return home.

perhaps him saying he is settled at City means just that.

 

[Sir peace frog]

i would keep dzeko,he gives us a completely different option when things need changing,think it is important to have a big target man in any squad.

if anybody was to be sold it would be tevez imo,not on ability thats for sure,but i wont forget or forgive the way he treated our club.and it wouldnt be for van pervert(cant fucking stand him),i would much prefer cavani.

 

[argyle]

Tolmie, I know you're busy but besides RVP is there anyone else we are after? If so are there any clues you can give? Hoping for clues on Martinez.

 

[St Helens Blue (Exiled)]

I have supported Edin throughout his stay at City however I have never rated himfrom what I have seen. 4 goals against Spurs - You cannot say he is class on the back of one performance.

His first touch was awful for the most of the season and he is pretty lightweight for a big guy. Now don't get me wrong,I would have loved him to succeed here however I just don't see it happening...Move him on and get a player who is more suited to our style of play - RVP.

Great bloke Edin is however does not match the way we play.

I think through the links in and out we can all see that the following have been identified as needing strengthening.


CB
CM
Wide player
A striker if Dzeko or Tevez go


RvP is clearly the striker
Hazard was the wide player, now alternative needed
Martinez is likely the CM
Not sure on the CB don't think we were ever really in for T Silva

Pedro for wide player,
Sahin for CM,
Martinez for CDM and CB,

All in my opinion but that's how I see it.

I hope City see things similarly. I've watched alot of all 3 and they woudl complete us. Not a single doubt in my mind.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Until Tevez pulls another one of his stunts and we crash out of another major competition and try to figure out what to do with him instead of focusing on winning the league while he plays golf. People just loooooove to talk about how he came back and helped right the ship. Of course, it's a ship he almost capsized single-handed. Why his twattish attitude even started infecting otherwise players with good attitudes like Dzeko.

Tevez... talented? You bet. Worth it? As long as you can trust him. Can you trust him? Not for long.

If Tevez doesn't move on in this window, he will go back to Argentina for peanuts next summer. He will be in exactly the same position RVP is in now, 12 months on his deal and no likelihood of signing another. The question is will Tevez give us more in 12 months than Edin could over three or four?

It's not a question of Tevez or Dzeko to me. If Dzeko is a poor fit, move him on and replace him. He is completely irrelevant to the Tevez situation.

What is completely relevant is that if Mike Dean had spotted Carlos's arm in Barton's face he would have been off and probably cost us the league; that and going missing for 6 months last season, and the regular moaning (about being tired, about wanting to leave, about hating Manchester, about wanting to retire) means 1 of the 2 is an emotional liability - never forget that his emotions nearly cost us against qpr

You dont want much do you mate!

Id like to nail Kate Upton mate but i just cant see it!

 

[LoveCity]

This guy saying it is 70% likely that Dzeko will go to Milan is not his agent but probably part of his team of representatives so may know something. I think Dzeko is more in Milan's price range (wages) than Tevez and fits the mold of their classic tall striker like van Basten, Shevchenko, and Ibrahimovic, even though he isn't as good as any of them.

would cost say €80M, will still be less than chelsea are likely to spend this window; one thing is for sure, Bobby is a shrewd man and no way did he sign up for 5 years without knowing there was still good money to spend

Pedro and Sahin don't see much gametime and play in postions where Barca and Real have many other options. Both teams wan't to offload players to free up cash, seemingly.

Martinez is getable at a cost.

All would be bombs too.

 

[brand blue heavies]

SSN reporting that ac milan president interested in Dzeko as Ibra replacement. This is according to Edin`s agent. Imo this,along with Ade`s departure will be the beginning of a transfer merry go round.

Ha slow computer as i`m miles behind on this it would appear! I like edin and think he would be an even better player for us given more time but i would like to see RVP in and i guess one of CT or ED have to go.

I just had to google who she was. Can I say that I would like to as well? Goes in my current top 3 with Kate Middleton and Kacey Barnfield.
Just say you never know. I used to dream of us getting bought out by rich guys and pipping United to the title :-)

The difference is that Tevez is a proven Premier League star forward. Not just 'adapted well' ,'scored a few important goals' , 'could fit really well with..' etc, we are talking one of the best players in the Premier League, possibly THE best when focused. A star . Balotelli is potentially more likely to fuck up than Tevez imo. I think Tevez is on board now & will accept whatever, be that a move or two years at City.

I like our 4 strikers & would keep them but if one has to go it should be Edin 1st imo.

 

[taconinja]

Whereas I think he's biding his time and playing nice hoping to get his dream move and another big pay day... and if he doesn't get it, he'll throw another tantrum hoping to derail our season to force a January move.

Martinez buy out clause is 40 million euros= £32 million

Id be happy with him and RVP to be honest
