Ok Maly, thanks for that. No harm in waiting to see I suppose. which deals have you heard of early in the past then ? and which have you heard that failed ? (Just interested in a bit of background you see)
Back ground: Kaka...was told a day before anything was announced about Kaka that City were looking to spend over £100 million, although I wasn't sure if this was to buy the ground or to go for Kaka.
Kaka again....Was told he was in the bag. Oops.
Adebayor....Told the Friday before it happened that it was a certainty.
Lescott.....Was told last Thursday that it will be happening & all the stuff in the press about going for alternatives is a smokescreen & not to believe it. (I'll wait & see about that one!!)
Ashley Young....we have made an enquiry but no firm bid (no way to know if this is true or not)
Bojinov....Going to Parma, not Lazio, on loan the day before it broke
There are probably a couple more, but got too much work to do to think of any others.
