It's Quiet 9 - maybe just maybe

[Tevez City]

Bridge to Sunderland and Veseli to United look very likely tomorrow it seems.

I will not sell them a virus !

Bridge to Sunderland and Veseli to United look very likely tomorrow it seems.

But what about RSC? Someone started this thread before but didn't elaborate: <a class="postlink-local" href="http://forums.bluemoon-mcfc.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=246845" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">viewtopic.php?f=10&t=246845</a> (the link goes to Sky Sports' front page and nothing there)

first i've heard wheres that from?

 

[mancitydreamteam]

veseli to united? I thought this lad was meant to be quality, i cant see us letting him go to the rags

You know how boring the window is when the largest headlines you see was Chelsea signing some Dutch youngster.

 

[Tevez City]

Thats his agent twitter account, and he confirmed his departure to The Greatest Club in the World.

Our big mistake under Hughes was getting these players on long contracts and ridiculously high transfer fees and salaries.

If they don't work out nobody else is going to do anything but take them on loan with us paying for the majority of their wages until their contract is over or nearing the end.

Most of these players if not all of them for that matter were past their prime.

Bridge, RSC too old or too crocked and unmotivated bar anything but money.

While they may not have been Hughes signings , Jo and Robby were poor business in the main.

Players like Bellamy and Ade could still contribute and did in fact do that no doubt but were not worth the fee or the length of contract initially offered.

We ended up giving Bellamy to Liverpool for nothing after paying most likely the vast majority if not all his wage while at Cardiff.

We hopefully have learned a valuable lesson and that's why we are playing hard ball with Tevez.

If you want him pay us what we reckon he is worth baggage or no baggage and you can have him.

In future if you are over 25 and come to City you will have to be very special to get anything over a 3 year deal.

If you work out as is always the case with the better performers you will extend that deal well within the 3 year period anyway.

If that's not the message we are sending out to players , agents and other stakeholders then we have learned very little from the disasters under Hughes.

There is a cost in taking a club from where we were to where we are in such a short amount of time. That cost is largely paid for now. We have a few folks that still need moving but in a year we will be out of this mess. At the time we had to buy the players we could buy and because of who we were they didn't come cheap. Things are different now, in no small part because we overspent in the first year or two of the takeover.

Vesili too small for a CB - once Savic bulks up a bit he'll be great

 

[mancity1]

Yes there is a cost but there was no need to overboard on players with chequered history on long contracts.

I can safely say that all of them would have moved clubs anyway for much less and much shorter deals.

The City factor was overplayed.

Leslie admitted he made a number of mistakes and the above was at the top of list.

Tevez is an example of why the club needs to get much tougher in the market place with its players going both ways.

FFPR should have nothing to do with the mindset of our approach in the transfer market.

Gone should be the days of paying overinflated prices on longer than required contracts on wages 3 times what any other premier league club can afford or be prepared to pay for the same player.

Players who we target should want to play for us first and be successful with us first with money a long second.

If not you can bet it won't be long until they leave or want to leave or find themselves struggling for any first team action.

He's actually quoting Veseli's agent...

 

[southern muppet]

If Veseli was allowed to leave, either through being sold or allowed to run out of contract, then I'm really not worried. Besides, Rekik is our future star at centre back.

 

[JoeMercer'sWay]

nothing can be incoming or we'd have heard a whisper or 2 by now.

Bridge will go, maybe Tevez late on and that will be that, don't see anybody other than De Bruyne at Chelsea for any of the top clubs.

 

[Blue Chicken]

I say we just go a piss arsenal off and get van persie

 

[mancunial]

Loanee on his way according to cooper

 

[LongsightM13]

Pizarro on loan from Roma likely if we can sort work permit, according to the beeb

 

[kbb]

sorry if already posted elsewhere but BBC deadline day website suggesting Adebayor permanent to Spurs but with Defoe to City (only a text from some itk so prob bullshit)

I personally think we've made a boo boo this transfer window. We knew that yaya would be going on kolo abs while we couldn't gave foreseen vinny getting sent off he could have got injured and it proves how short we are at cb.I know Micah is quality at rb but without question he should have been put at cb and zab at rb until vinny returned or a cb like samba bought! Am sure we could have offered ned,bridge etc to sweeten the deal as well! If yaya gets injured then we are gonna miss him as bobby doesn't seem to want to play Milner for 2 games in a row. We should have kissed de rossi's arse in September and got a deal in place and to be fair we've had 6-8 months to sort fucking Carlos out!!!

God almighty, always thought you were a cringeworthy muppet, now you've proven it - one thing this forum is good for is the truth always comes out sooner or later

 

[bobmcfc]

i think getting players off the wages was vital this window.

 

[birchwoodgingerste]

yep clear the dead wood ready for the summer.
