O'Neil's comments re Milner on SSN didn't sound like he was very confident of keeping him.
I wonder how desperately Mancini wants another striker (or 2). If he sees it as a priority then we'll have to pay the price if nobody will budge. If we hold out 'til August it may get interesting as many clubs will be waiting for us to do our deals before dipping their toes in the market, for fear of us driving the fees up. Could end up with an almighty deadline scramble if we sit it out.
Personally I think it's essential to sign at least 1 more striker. We can't trust Ade or RSC on last season's showing & Tevez' career goalscoring record is, so far, inconsistant.
