From everything i've read Mancini always has had a short wish list.

Dzeko
Toure
Silva
Milner
Boateng (DONE)

I think these are the legit names we are going for to compliment the squad as these are the names which keep on recurring almost daily.

These names also would fit into the 150million budget being banded about too. Also the fact city haven't come out and quashed the bold statements from agents and clubs over bids/contracts says to me theres some truth in them imo.

But as usual, lets keep playing the waiting game for now!

Gotta say though i'm craving prem action, this world cup malarky just isn't cutting the mustard for me.

Well our friends at the mail are talking about the yaya toure signing being all but announced now.

I'll be delighted if this one happens. He'll be an absolute hit in the prem, city's essien, no doubts.

Also he looks good in our colours..

I have vivid memories of Yaya making Gareth Barry look like a small rag doll in the Joan Gamper game last season. Totally bossed the midfield that day.

Hope it does comes off and that it's a match made in heaven.

*City are rumoured to be interested in signing Manchester United's Wayne Rooney, but the 30p pricetag may prove to be a stumbling block.

I see the mail reckon Yaya could be playing centre back. Not such a bad idea, but as they have him partnering Kolo I reckon it will be Lescott!

Touré will sign on Monday according to MD this morning:

Basically says he's concentrating on IC's match against Brazil tomorrow and hasn't been able to undergo the City medical out there in SA.

City want to be sure because of his back problems which led to him having a discal hernia operation in May 2008.

Friend agent says if he wasn't at the world cup it would be all done by now. When the player was transferred from Monaco Seluk cede the 50% ownership of the player in exchange for 20% of any future fee - nice work if you can get it, and probably explains why Barca wanted a bit above rate for Yaya.

The good news for us is that the Barca fans wanted him to stay (70% of them), and so did Pep, but Seluk has made so much fuss and caused dicontent in the dressing room that Barca feel compelled to accept City's offer.

Looking forward to Seluk trying to pick our team then!

It seems to be true from a good source here in Italy: Dzeko on his way to Eastlands for 26 ml £!
