32m for Dzeko! Jesus.
21m for Jo :(
2.6m for Corradi! WTF.

I'd go with Jo as he was signed before the money and cost more.

All Mancini signings. What a surprise...

Just let it go now eh?

Given the fact he has been our manager for the past 3 years,why does that shock you?

Get your head out of your arse.

I have never known you,ever once,give him credit for any good signings.
You just ramble on about bad buys.

That has much to do with the fact youre an expert at cherry picking my contributions and highlighting the ones that you wish to criticise.

Its a forum,so of course,i'm going to vent my spleen that little bit more,however,for the record,Clichy,Nastasic,Yaya,Silva,and Aguero were/are great Mancini purchases.

Wow, the list of signings from 95-97 whilst Alan Ball was in charge is frightening. For me, practically any one of those players would be in with a shout.

Eike Immel to replace Coton
Alan Kernaghan to replace Curle
Fonzeck to replace Phelan
Creaney to replace Walsh
Shit Symonds to replace Vonk
Clough, what a wanker he was
Who the fuck was Simon Rogers?
Martin fucking Phillips..........any surprises we fell through the divisions.

Worst transfer policy I think I've ever witnessed by us.

We're also shit at selling players it seems. £5m for Abebayor? Like him or not, he still gets roughly 1 in 2 in the Premier League. And £3m for De Jong is a travesty.

We were lucky to get that with Ade's contract and DJ had us over a barrel.

Both sanctioned by Hughes who some reporters still maintain was "getting it right at City"

RSC is the pound for pound transfer fuck up in our history.

Just shows how well buying 'proven premier league players' works.

What I like about Pellegrini's philosophy is that he wants 'intelligent' players. To me, that means the end of the mercenary phase, to be replaced by honest and talented players who have the club and the supporters at heart. Players like VK and Zabba, and none of the baggage signings of which we have had more than our fair share ever since the money rolled in.
