Don't know where you're getting that idea from.

He played really well. It was quite a change to the league game a couple of weeks ago when Cambuur lost 6-0 at home against PSV.

Who do you support again?

considering that i greatly prefer to pay full attention to City matches I decided that since i could only stream 1 match on my phone at work without audio that id go with Bayern. Plus, i can't get Bein sports on my phone so DVR it was for the City match.

your attempts are confrontation are admirable.

I'm not attempting anything. Just found it extremely odd that someone who claims to be a City fan watched a game that had nothing to do with City whilst City were playing.

It's not extremely odd mate, it's extremely straight forward. The cunt supports City about as much as my aunty Margaret.
She'll watch them, but not if Eastenders is on at the same time.

Isn't that right, Aunty Margaret?
You cunt.

OS are quoting the Daily Star's report that we are in pole position to land him:

Also, there are reports of a rift between him and Arjen Robben because of the latter being selfish in front of goal:

And there we have your premier Sunday thread resurrection and link fix, Phips' and WAM-style ;)

I would have him in a heartbeat, lethal striker but it would be the end of Bony as a City player. We need to stop signing players from Swansea, nothing but bad news.

Me too.
Not bothered.
Still think he will end up at rags tho. I think they will spend big on top striker next summer esp. if/when they get CL again

Pretty much sums up my feelings. A top player in the form of his life. A player like that could be the difference between glory and clapping the winners

I've not heard a single plausible reason why he would want to leave Bayern, or why Bayern would want him to.

Yes it seems there's a rift with Robben, but he's 32 and not featuring in the first team very much - he will be the one to leave. Robben would be a good stop-gap option for us I think if Nasri could be offloaded.

No thanks. We should quit doing that, if youngsters are ever going to get a look in.
At 32 he's too old to be coming in.

with the new tv contract kicking in, there will be loads of top players coming over to the premier league next summer.

they are all in it for the ££££s as thomas muller admitted only last month

would not be at all surprised if lewandowski joined us.

On the contrary, at 32 he is not a 50m investment that we need to stick around for 5 years to make it financially viable. There is most definitely a case for a player like Robben being around the club.

At 32 he will spend a max of 2 years at the club, will gradually reduce his playing time hence being a great alternative to having to throw the likes of Barker into the mix at 18 in the event of a couple of injuries

I wasn't reading that right, Lewandowski isn't 32 you morons then I realised you'd moved on.

No to Robben, let the rags pick up Bayern's castoffs, that's what they're there for.

Robben?! Are you trying to give PBL a hernia?

Robben can fuck off. I would slap a 100 m on the table for lewandowski.

Everything about Robben screams rag. He can fuck right off. Lewandowski I'd take in the beat of a humming bird's wing. Exactly what we need right now.

To those that are saying they'd like us to sign him. Would he partner Aguero? Would we go back to 4-4-2? or would he compete with Aguero for the lone striker position?
