Something I never get is why City fans try to rationalise what the United idiots are saying......do you really think that they will come out with constructive comments relating to City and it's players....haha!!!!!.

Yeh get your point mate, but they just annoy me with their double standards and arrogance haha

Something i never get is why the scum are taking the piss comparing it to their swinestiger signing?

Was talking with a Scum fan on Sat night and said thay you'll get a couple of years out of him at most but was a quality player.

The response "Yeah, but we'll sell him on for a profit"

Yeh I can believe that, there's just no hope for most of them, not all i admit. But the majority are the most deluded fans in EPL football.

Just reading up on Vlaar (wanted to see how old he was and read the rest of his bio) and saw something quite interesting...



So their former captain changed his mind, then changed it again, and their fans didn't protest wildly?

That can't be right. If it was, it'd make Villa fans a group of hypocritical twatbags, surely.

or the media in there country don't go on and on about it or they might actually have fans that think for themselves unlike in this country where a majority of them are sheep..

Nope, not confused by that at all. Worked reall well for Aresenal didn't it.

It didn't work for Arsenal because the Suarez team misinterpreted the contract. They THOUGHT anything over 40m was enough to trigger a release clause, but it wasn't. It was enough to trigger negotiations, which Liverpool simply negotiated as 'we're not selling'. But of course, by then, they knew the Suarez team had leaked the 40m figure as Arsenal had made it so patently obvious.

It was a giant cockup from the Suarez party, and made Arsenal look silly in the process.

Buzzer seems to be saying 'stamp your authority' and 'you won't have a problem with that'.

When Delph was first picked for England my first reaction was " what the #$% " but I ended up quite impressed with his performances, particularly that second game. He was not particularly brilliant at anything but he distributed the ball well, broke up attacks and looked comfortable running with the ball. I am looking forward to seeing him for City.

It's a little bit cringeworthy, that Buzzer "advice". Not sure why but it is.

No. Liverpool confessed afterwards that Suarez did have the above £40m release clause. They pulled a fast one!

Heard Doggymore on Talkshite earlier... he's not a happy bunny, but to be fair to him he was angry that Villa agreed to such a low buy-out clause... as he said, £8mil - even teams like West Ham or Sunderland could have triggered that!

They couldn't have triggered it because that 8mil was only for teams in the Champions League. That was the catch, they thought the odds of a CL club coming for Delph was low enough to agree to it. Nobody told them that City were about to lose a lot of HG players.
