Stefan Radu on the list ? What a twaaat. How the hell did he get on that list ? The guy likes kebabs more that Gazza

Craziest rumour I have heard - swap deal between Adebayor & Kaka until the end of the season.

Here's a cracker from Tribal

Manchester City have reportedly confirmed their interest in Newcastle United striker Andy Carroll.
Andrew Slevison

Despite City boss Roberto Mancini saying that he believes Newcastle will unlikely be selling Carroll any time soon, reports suggest that the Eastlands club are certainly curious.

Carroll netted his 11th goal of the season in the Magpies’ 3-1 loss to City on Boxing Day and has emerged as a target for Blues during the winter market.

These recent reports have forced German club Wolfsburg to cut the transfer fee of Edin Dzeko, who City are also very keen on, to around £25million.

You couldn't make it up but they have!

The Mail are reporting that the Dzeko deal near enough done, just waiting for the window to open to finalize the deal.

I hope that's true

[Esky]

Dzeko: " Goodbye and thank you Wolfsburg! I'm gonna miss you all especially my career!".

Not sure where this was lifted from but it was the first comment on an espn story.

Also never seen Ruiz play but with Boateng, Boyata, Richards, Onuoha and Kompany I don't see why we need another young defender who'll take time to adjust to the league.

Boj being linked to Wigan and the Barcodes

Perhaps we will finally see if he can cut it in the prem ;-)

As with all our potential future players, I will wait for news that he arrives at Eastlands for his physical!!

You mean Luiz (Chelsea bid just rejected)?

With the greatest of respect mate this is why Mancini is manager and we aren't. Firstly he has said he is looking ahead and secondly Onuoha will never be in a champion team, Boyata we dont know and I'm not (nor is Bobby I reckon) too sure about Richards either. Boateng has a long way to go to say the least and Kolarov's defending against Newcastle was on the poor side of dire. All that sort of leaves Kolo, Lescott, Kompany and the mad enigma that is Zabaleta.

David Luiz, however, would be a dead cert, it is widely acknowledged.

I actually think a back line of ........

Zabba - Kolo - Kompany - Lescott

......looks pretty good. With Richards, Kolarov and Boateng ready to step in, I think we look extremely healthy at the back.

This Luiz thing seems to keep coming back & I must admit I find it a bit of a strange idea that we need him, however good he may be; he would no doubt find he needed time to settle. I'll bow to Bob/Marwood's opinion if we sign him though as I would assume they're convinced he'll be a fantastic player in the future & too good to miss.

I watched plenty of his games live when I was living in Portugal (2006 and 2007) and right now after some years I have to admit he's improved a lot.

He's equally adapt to play as CB or FB and i believe this versatility is what Mancio/Marwood find extremely interesting. He has been linked with Real, A.C. Milan and Inter as early as late 2007/early 2008. Benfica will ask a busload of cash for him though.

not really..price quoted is 7 million

[Wooders]

think you might be thinking of *Ruiz* from Espanyol who we were recently linked with IBH - he's got a 7 million get out clause I think

Luiz will set us back 25+ million notes
