I hope that this is bullshit, not the OP but that we are in for Rodwell.
What is it with our strategy? Can't believe we are trying for these kind of players when there are players like De Rossi and Martinez knocking about.

Some strange comments there.
We'd be buying potential basically, not the ready-made Bob seems to want with De Rossi.

Not good enough for us...but good enough for the league champions.
I would sell him for 5m

So the two top signing this summer will be Sinclair and Rodwell ? :)

Tbf if anyone can turn that potential into genuine quality, it's Roberto Mancini.

The funny thing is that Rodwell could be more expensive than NDJ, VDV or Adebayor !

Is this some sort of weird strategy to get clubs to sell ?

If true, I think signing Rodwell and Sinclair would be in order to comply with the homegrown players rule. I imagine they'd be squad players used mainly for domestic cups, whether the players would be happy with that is a different matter.
I don't see why signing Sinclair would impact on Johnson, they'd probably both play in domestic cups. I think Johnson will stay regardless of who we sign, he's a valuable member of the squad. I know most of his goals came in games that were already won, but as we know from last season, Goal Difference can be huge and to have a player who can regularly score coming on as a sub is a great quality to have.
