We're in the semi's without any real hope of winning the league.

They've got to think of something to try and mess us up.

He signed a six year contract last summer he's going no where. Plus his wife is a Manc so she's not going to want to leave.
Edit* It's fucking laughable

Is this the same rag that decided to go with this headline:

Dead man walking: Roberto Mancini will be sacked in the summer, claims Manchester City legend
9 Mar 2013 22:30

Rodney Marsh reckons the disciplinarian Italian will go even if the Blues manage to lift the FA Cup after a disappointing season

or,
Rich pickings: Manchester City defender Micah Richards emerges as surprise target for Arsenal
9 Mar 2013 23:00

Gunners see the England full-back, who is currently sidelined, as a ready made replacement for wantaway Bacary Sagna

Or the one where we want to replace Zab's with Byram as Micah is favoured in the middle of the defence? Replacement for Nasri also?

Some might think the Mirror doesn't like us.

I wonder what they had to say about the Rags after the debacle in midweek. Rooney on his way out, Fergie under pressure? Nah, not a peep. Rooney to resign, Chevy to pay for Tranny, just another day in the life of the Mirror. Sychophancy at it's greatest.

Nah, not nay more - too injury prone. Wish we coud get Savic back.

Yes and Barca is a club players seem to want to join. Perfect club for him and the next level players like Vinny look to, hope it is all B.S.

No. A lot more, in my opinion.

The reason I ask if Vinnie is worth £20 mil is because there aren't that many really world class defenders around who are on the market. Who do we take a valuation off, who sets the precedence?

We paid a lot of money for Nastasic who is still very young and to some extents, not proven. Or do we go off the CamelGob deal from years ago, £30 mil all the way back then?

To me, Vinnie epitomises what we are all about. He's worth more to us than any price but I do wonder where the line would be drawn if someone came in with a huge bid.

im more than confident no price would get the club to sell him,can you imagine the backlash towards whoever sanctioned it>bobby would not allow it and if he does go and a new manager did he would be hated from day one

I can't see it myself. I understand that nearly every player would like to play for Barca, but just look at what he's got here.
Captains armband
Respect of all players
A team that is becoming more of a force each season
A wife from Manchester
And of course, us lot!
He will stay and help build a dynasty.

The same people that own the mirror own the MuEN, which explains a lot. As for Kompany going (and for £20 million), it's enough to make the cat laugh.

To be honest i think any player in the world would be tempted by Barcelona, sadly.

BUT we'd want well over 30m, and rightly so. Can't see it happening this summer.

This.

I'm sure Barcelona would want him but I think Kompany loves being at City, loves the club and if I could bet that he spends the rest of his career at Eastlands, then I would.

I'm sorry, I thought Beefy's question was tongue-in-cheek, hence my tongue-in-cheek reply.

Some of the comments on this thread from City fans should get you barred from supporting ANY team.

Kompany IS City for the next 5/6 years. Captain, Best defender in the world (now, oh yes,) and a true symbol of our progress - We all remember when Richard Dunne was our main defensive, er, unit.

IF he was sold it would be for a minimum of £40 million. And then we would want someone in as p/x as well.

'Everyone wants to play for Barcelona.' No. No, they don't.

The idea is that we build a team, squad and dynasty that will eventually dwarf theirs, and Utd's, Real's and Bayern's.

That is the goal of our owners. That is a goal I now have. If you're not on board, you still have a small club, inferiority complex and should re-adjust your attitude. Best team in the land (already true, most weeks,) and all the world (a little while longer yet.)

Barcelona Shmarcelona. Yaya left them to play for us. That is the new order. Even if it takes 25 years.

What can Vinnie get at Barca that he can't get at CITY? At the moment all I can think of is a tan and playing in front of 90k+ every home game. He can work on his tan in the summer here, and whos to say we wont end up with a 90k+ stadium of our own in the (not too distant) future?
