Spammer, Bayern's Sporting Director says Schweini has been injured a lot over last couple of years and couldn't be counted on. Will miss him 'emotionally' though.

You're being far too fair minded old chum.

Even if Hell were to freeze over, the Scum would never be able to be described as being "decent".

It's the very antithesis of what they are.

I'm just being daft and pulling your leg.

Although it pains me to admit it, the Scum might be a useful side next season.

Di Marzio says negotiations over Dzeko difficult. Sides some distance apart. Also talk that Tia Maria wants out which makes sense.

I don't get the antipathy against Schweinsteiger. I'm all for using young players and trying to maximize values in transfers and such, but Schweinsteiger is still a decent midfielder. If they can get the last two or three decent years out of him, it'll make the transition from the squad Ferguson and Moyes left behind to a new and actually capable one easier. He's no long term solution but he could well be the short term. IMO. It's ultimately still a game of football, not one of cost-effective transfers.

"In my career so far it's the most important goal. You score the goal in the last minute to win the title. You're not sure if that's ever going to happen in your career again. I wish I could tell you how I did it but I can't. I thought for all the world that Mario was going to have a go himself but he just moved it on one more and it fell at my feet and I just thought: 'Hit the target, hit it as hard as you can and hit the target.' And it went in."

I wish Inter would piss or get off the pot with Jovetic. We do need a deal done with he and probably Dzeko too. The Club need to make a strong pitch for De Bruyne and outs are needed.

The Sun suggest the scum are after Cavani. PSG might be amenable if Tia Maria goes the other way. Can see this happening. Then the scum will be after a CB. Otamendi? FFP? Don't make me laugh.

I think Jayko won't hold the ball up nearly as well as Muscle Man but still they are different players who command different space. Surely I'm not the only cunt who sees that?

I think the problem is for dzeko is we don't play enough quality balls into the box to take advantage of his heading and his touch is too poor for our style of play. navas and sterling aren't the best at crossing, kolarov prefers to drill the ball hard and low and silva and nasri prefer to play the killer through ball. Put him in a different team with out and out wingers and I think he'd be a lot better.

We don't want to sell Dzeko for 20 million euros plus bonus to Roma. Apparently we hold at for 28 millions.

Anything less than 25m is a joke. And I'm talking gbp not fucking euro.

Turned up on tour today with Edin. A bit late but he had his shirt on so a small victory.

I completely agree.

At some point in time, we've got to shatter this idea that sides (especially Italian ones) can somehow pick up City players on the cheap.

If this means we don't sell Dzeko this summer, then so be it.

Well, if we wanna sell Dzeko fo that kind of money then it s one of the PL buyers. Roma doesn't have that kind of money and few other clubs do in Europe. I would take 18-20 mill pounds. His salary is to big to seat on bench.

I think Dzeko will be part of the deal to bring KDB to City. Seems a little too simplistic, but he always talked fondly of Wolfsburg, no reason why not? Seems that there are murmurings of KDB wanting to open talks

Chelsea flop Kevin De Bruyne is keen on listening to Manchester City’s proposal to sign him this summer, claim the Mirror.

Sources close to the player have confirmed the attacker is interested in signing for the Etihad outfit as he considers a return to the Premier League, where he has unfinished business.

The Belgian star, who joined Wolfsburg at the start of last season after becoming an outcast at Chelsea, scored 15 goals and created 26 in his debut season for the German side.

City have been following developments with the player confirming the club’s interest recently. But if the Etihad outfit do manage to pull off the transfer they look like facing a battle from Wolfsburg who have constantly said they do not want to sell and are preparing a mega money new deal.

De Bruyne signed for the German club for £18m after being overlooked by Jose Mourinho at Chelsea before deciding to move on.

But the latest developments will give City hope they can pull off the deal and add him to their squad alongside Raheem Sterling, who is set to seal his move later today after his medical.

Reports coming out of France that Tia Maria is close to agreeing a 5 yr deal with PSG for £43m, not a bad net loss in 1yr for them LOL

Bad news is that they are expected to get Cavani

Cavani is a big game bottler, big time. Will work his socks off though & smash the 'minnows'.

Also, 'Chelsea flop Kevin De Bruyne'. You couldn't make it up!
