Svennis,

It wouldnt suprise me if we have not got a bid in for Villa.

I dont think for a minute we want him, Eto'o is our target but it makes for a very good bargaining position with Barca.

Of course its just my opinion.

If Laporta wants to mess about then we could do the same. Pay him his loyalty fee or we will increase Villas price by putting in a huge bid. Or at least let the press speculate on it. 'City forced to consider Villa alternative as Eto'o deal stalls' type thing. Puts us back in the driving seat. Makes Laporta aware that he can't get Villa at a decent price AND hold Eto'o (and indirectly City) to ransom over the loyalty payment because we could inflate the Barca price for Villa.

I know we can't get Villa but we can make Barcelona sweat over the size of their deal. It's in their interests to let Sammy go so we don't interfere and we can do what Laporta is doing to give him a kick up his backside.

It's all just a game!
