You won't be spending £100 Million every summer and if you do your team will never be settled and will struggle to win
Not often that I agree with you but on this one I do. What we as City fans are seeing in this Transfer Window will probalby never be repeated again. In the future we will have a settled team, and those players will no doubt be quality but in future transfer windows we will only have to tweak the squad bringing in one or two players over a six month period until the next window where again no major reshakes to the squad would take place.
i don't think we will get Terry, I suspect he's playing both clubs against each other which in fairness to him personally is acceptable. To the clubs and their fans then it's a piss take, but that's life.

Absolutely spot on auction294. Just what I've been thinking for a while. This summers spending, whilst it is great fun to watch, will probably never be repeated again. So lets enjoy the moment with a smug smile because we are moving from a club with mid table mediocricy to one that is a serious contender to the top four. Regarding Terry, I'm quite fickle about whether he will join us or not. I hope he does because he will be a 'quality signing, just what the club needs'.

We all know your views by now, "terry is the best if he stays with you", "and a twat if he comes to us", "Chelsea didn't do what city did because they spent less (quite a few years ago now - inflation) and already had a GREAT team"... etc etc
So unless you have something interesting to say - TRANSFER NEWS on a TRANSFER FORUM...
do one.

I agree that having opposition fans who are articulate and respectful on here adds a different perspective and is refreshing. Why people have to be antagonistic as an automatic refles is beyond me.
