Well Sterling is saying fuck all.

Does that sound like the trustworthy type to you?

I'd be happy just to know the information myself. I would get no buzz out of giving clues or posting music videos based on this info.

IWT2012 - I went on that forum when this one was down a couple of years ago and I got fucked off it within 24 hours for asking about the reliability of this false god.

A mod though it was an offence that warranted a lifetime ban. To a fellow blue who didn't believe "Tolm".

I cringe when I think that that pile of shite is a City forum.

Their podcast is a good listen.

They might be looking to sell him already.

Negredo was something of a flop at Valencia, scoring five goals in 30 games in his loan spell, and there is speculation the club may instantly sell him – especially as they have problems with meeting financial fair play requirements.

was an intelligent move by the spafia. bony is better, and younger.

Putting Pogba and Sterling aside, if we miss on KDB which other midfielder should we go after?
Sorry, but im not feeling Hamsik.

Good job your not, they are a vengeful lot in Naples

Feeling Hamsik.

Is that like feeling as sick as a pig?

I'll get my own coat thanks.

I am a mong who doesn't keep up with football outside of Britain but it always surprised me that hamsik didn't move on to better things. That season he had when we played Napoli, he was brilliant. What's happened to him? Linking up with cavani and lavezzi, he looked like he was going to be one of the best. Since then, I've heard and seen nowt of him.

Benitez.

Talksport site mentioning Savic & Utd in the same piece. I can't for one second believe this rumour to be even a possibility, but if it was true, I would be tempted to start going to church.

No, it was quite excellent.

Don't go, just stay and give us some more a.s.a.p.

I know I’ve joked about having a feeling in my left nut that we would get our targets this year.
However, the question has been on my mind for a little bit now. At what stage did City officially say that our primary targets are Pogba, De Bruyne and Sterling. I’m not saying they aren’t, just that this seems to be fuelled by media speculation and our own expectations more than anything else.
City have kept complete schtum throughout all of this and I LIKE IT THIS WAY. Even the two so called Sterling bids seemed to have been leaked to the media from the Liverpool side. Correct me if I’m wrong (it does happen), but I don’t recall City actually saying anything.
A lot of stories go back and forth in the media about Pogba in particular. Barcelona seem to be using him as part of an election campaign but at no point have City actually come out and said they’ve made a bid for him, despite the rumours that €100m has been offered and agreed with Raiola.
The only real evidence for my optimism this year is Khaldoon’s end of year statement. The fact that our finances are in good order and the belief that regardless of what UEFA are trying to do to us, we have a management team that are top quality and hopefully one step ahead, having been stung by their corruption last year. The fact that Platini seems to be surpassing himself, by trying to implement this FFP II, just smacks of desperation and as Dupont has pointed out, time wasting.
I think this will only act to firm the resolve of City to make a statement of intent this summer. I choose to believe that City’s management team are playing a stormer throughout all this. How do we know what is going on in the background. The fact that we have said nothing about these three gives me confidence rather than doubt, that if these truly are the three we want, then we are very much still in the frame. If we were out of the frame would we not have moved on to other targets, that would be presumably easier to land and probably rapped up by now.
The fact that we have been stung and used by others in the past (Kaka/Isco?), causes me to respect that City are operating in the manner they are now. It’s frustrating for us, I know, but by not feeding the press anything they don’t have a stick to beat us with, should we not land the likes of Pogba etc.
My left nut is still tingling away. I’m not sure who we will land this year but I still believe City plan on making a statement. If you agree with the so called targets and their fees or not, is irrelevant. If I was to guess I think City will show that we are here, alive and well and more than able to compete in the market with Barca/Real/Bayern/Utd or anyone else who thinks they have us beaten.
If we end up with Delph and Song, I will get it checked out.

I like you. Wanna join my clique?

What an odd way to tell us that you're nut tingling is right no matter who we get. You're like the psychic my wife sees. Never fucking makes a false move, and everything she says comes true. Amazing stuff.

cheers

Just be careful and don't open your legs; you might get nutmegged.

No it's definitely the left and are you saying your wife's ball is tingling too.
Have to say, I've had my suspicions for a while.

Linked to Bayer's German winger Karim Bellarabi today. back up plan for KDB maybe?

Maybe it was a misprint and they meant KBB all along.

Always the way when you get these partnerships where the total out ways the individual parts e.g. Shevchenko & Rebrov

Maybe Sterling-related, this getting into the press?

Goal says PSG are going to bid 60 million euros for Tia Maria. He'd obviously love a transfer away from a manager who won't start him match after match.

That's a lot of money for that pile of shit.
