You are correct... if we win then league we can call ourselves the best in the land. If we don't, we can't. Either way, I'm sure we are gonna make significant progress this season.

If I seem pessimistic it's because I've been a City supporter for too long. It's clear that we shouldn't oblige him but 300k in wages says we should just loan him then and be done if he's not in the squad. As for Samir, too many reports say were off the mark on the fee for me to believe it. I hope I'm wrong.

I cam see this happening tomorrow/Thursday at the latest. Anyone think Nasri will be in the stands tonight for Arsenal or do you think they will let him stay away?

"Spend some fucking money"
Last few games last season; first game this season. Is that directed at Arse, the board, or both?

It's called rotationalky313 said:When's this going to be concluded? Its getting tiresome. Not to mention. With tevez likely to stay where do we and how we keep these players happy. Carling Cup matches don't keep players happy.

You have a good point, but Im not gonna say you are the best team until you win the league....surely thats fair enough? i mean its the same logic with the pundits who wanna hand the PL trophy to Man u saying no one will compete. No matter how good of players you sign...you have to earn in on the pitch. if you win the league in may....You have every right to say we are the best.

I am not sure we can make significant progress without winning the league? I mean, we were joint 2nd on points last season.
What if we win the CL and Come Second by 1 point. Will that be signigicant progress? :PChippy_boy said:Left Peg said:Arsene said:BringBackSwales

Rotation especially among the European elite is one of the biggest fallacies on this board. The fact is that Barcelona and Inter Milan before them all had a very set lineup. Contesting for Champions League and the Premier League would be quite easy if you could field two separate teams. But there isn't enough training and time to field two completely different teams and even if the team were to cycle forwards chemistry would be lost. There is a reason that most people can guess the front line for Barca on any given day.
For the most part, my fellow blues seem to suggest that Dzeko, Balotelli, Aguero and Tevez are going to share a single forward role or perhaps a two forward front at best. The issue isn't so much that a team can't have 4-5 strikers. The Rags do it, but with relatively lower profile players. The likes of Welbeck, Hernadez and Owen are all at the beginning or end of their careers. The one occasion where a major player has sit for them (Berbatov) he left and his future was placed in doubt for the entire summer.
There's already rumblings out of Chelsea that Anelka does not like sitting on the bench.
Its not completely crazy to suggest that once Nasri signs and the attacking midfield is supplanted with two creative playmakers and two forwards that playing time will become scarce. Carlitos is a headache. But he'll be a bigger headache if he isn't on the pitch, I'm sure you all remember the argument he and Mancini had while he was warming up.
Color me crazy... But one of these men will need to make way for a more veteran player who is comfortable with sitting long spells.
