Why don t you people read everything before acting smart? For God sake, we are all in the same boat, stop acting like some of you are the only ones who can swim. Why can t we all be polite and discuss football?

Well as a City fan, I do read everything about City so I don't go on to forums and make a fool of myself(well not always) if as u say, you have been on City forums since 2007(good year by the way, doesn't make you look like a glory hunter/rag spy) then you would know this...

Nasty pulling the plug on his move fucked everything up. His sale would have meant we passed FFP. Rumours are that he had agreed everything and then demanded more money to move didn't get it and then backed out of all further negotiation's.

Not sure if that's clarkie bait but failing FFP was assured in April 2013 when UEFA moved the goalposts.
 
What I find a bit curious - and perhaps not so curious to those of you in Europe with greater media coverage - is that I haven't seen any mention of any other club vying for Bony's signature. Usually, and without fail, whenever City is pursuing a player, the media reports other clubs are about to swoop in, or that the target would prefer to go to "X" club. Here, its seems like a one-horse race.

This is slightly concerning. It makes me believe that Swansea's valuation is universally believed to be excessive or that Bony's worth is overestimated.

I am no expert, but I see a potential Dzeko situation playing out. Paying the January window premium and getting a good, serviceable player with occasional world-class plays, but not a player to justify the price tag

I hope I am wrong
 
Is it time for this yet????

This is not true. It was reported that both chelsea and liverpool were also interested but that City pushed through the deal. I for one hope it gets finalized quickly for the good of both swans and us.

Early on I read that both clubs were interested but nothing further was every reported about serious interest/inquiry. It seems like only City has made serious inquiries.

Again, I fully admit that I may be missing the reports as my primary means of information is whatever NewsNow can aggregate for me

Moreen wants him at Chelsea, in fact he's desperate that he wants him

Who else is in a position to move for him? No prem clubs are able to for their own individual reasons. Real were loosely linked but they're overloaded with forwards and with reus on the way I doubt it.

I hope this gets sorted soon!

My bad PB, on the FFP bit, but I think the bit about Nasty playing silly buggers is right.

You're wrong on a couple of counts. It's supposedly a firm & irrevocable contract to buy him at the end of the season. So we've called it a loan but 'deferred sale' might be a better way to describe it. Either from our end, Valencia's or because it suited us both, to get round FFP that's the way it was done. Also season long loans don't have break clauses so even if we wanted him back, we couldn't do it.

Also, Negredo would not come back to Manchester, as there was some unspecified trouble here that led to a situation where there was believed to be a real physical threat to his safety. So he's really not our player and, even if he was, he wouldn't come back here.

what's that all about? without naming names

I couldn't name names even if I wanted to as I simply don't know what the actual story is other than there was perceived to be a threat and security measures were in place.

The beast was caught with his trousers down with a known villain so to speak Mrs and under no circumstances will he return to manchester
 
The final authority on transfers has spoken

Bony’s mega-money switch is expected to be confirmed shortly, and Hoops boss Redknapp believes that the powerful striker will be a terrific addition to the Etihad.

He said: “Clubs can take big gambles in the January transfer window, but signing Bony from Swansea is definitely not one.

“They’re buying a top-class centre-forward, but for those you do have to pay around the £30m mark.”
