Bombo said:Adebayor making waves has gone down like a led balloon. This unexpected turn of events has got Mancini and marwood back to the phone lines. Mancini is determined to have a squad of happy players he will not tolerate any disenting voices ie Ireland, bellamy, robinho et al. Adebayor was told after the spurs game that he will feature heavily this season hence the number 9 shirt and not to be concerned he was a victim of formation not form. His outburst since though has caused a major wave. Any offer of note will now be accepted.
Mancini wanted ibra badly however platini's new rules have altered the clubs plans as we will only be able to spend what we earn thus our new signings must have long term futures we are looking closely at the age of players we sign. Large investments on players approaching 30 will not now be made. Mancini has accepted this if Adebayor is now off loaded expect dzeko (right age) to be approached again. Also do not dismiss pazzini as roberto is a big fan. This could happen very quickly with adebayors attitude.
As this post says don't expect big fees to bf paid out in the summer for players heading towards 30. We will be seeking long term value so no Ibra and the like Mancini has accepted this and will sign players 27 years old or under. There may be a vieira type free transfer though to provide an example of professionalism to the younger players.
