Maybe not. Maybe it's marwood who said yes. Which also would explain why platt is willing to leak it.

Let's remember that Hughes end came when his position was untenable with marwood and cook and not just because of the results on the pitch.

So Mancini buys a player, watches him not perform, allows him to leave early, then slags him off to the press (via his bitch).

Anything in that no make sense? Try changing some of the words to Marwood and it starts to. That is very worrying, as it suggests a power struggle at the top. If that's true, booing fans are the least of our worries.

exactly...this is the classic continental thumbwrestle, isn't it? Mancini knows how to operate in this environment, but Marwood doesn't. Neither does Cook.

I'd suggest Marwood would get tossed out on his ear before Mancini.

A bit off topic but also on ! These stories about Yaya being paid 200 K a week. Is there any truth in them. Has it ever been confirmed by the club ?
Are there any other players in the EPL earning 200 K a week ? I think Shrek's new deal pays him something like that but but I don't know of any others.
What does Tevez earn ?

i honestly have no genuine idea what any City footballer makes. And i don't think too many people really do.

I don't believe for one second that Yaya makes 200K a week.

Marwood sort of confirmed it once, but said it included win bonuses etc. I got the impression if we won everything and he scored all the goals, his average would be about £200k a week.

The fact he's on performance related pay then led one paper to scream about the ridiculous bonuses we were paying. Looks to me like the right way to do it, but perhaps they should have made all Yaya's pay performance related. The lack of food he'd be getting would at least slim him down.

Yeah I now seem to remember hearing something like what you say, that its performance related but like Doomy said I don't believe for a minute that Yaya is getting 200 K a week. However its been reported in the press as a fact !

Thought the fact was £220k a week. Or was it £250k a week that it went up to? Or was it less, because Rooney is now highest paid player on £200k a week.

Never really understood why the club or the player would tell the press. They obviously do though, otherwise the papers are just making up shit that you can't disprove without sticking your wage slip on your facebook page.
