£34 million is the rumoured fee
Baffling if true
Abu Dhabi has just aquired City for a huge fee from the Thai Prime Minister and they look all set to snatch him.
So much for Him wanting to leave Spurs to play "Champions League Football"
Bulgarian ****.
But £34 million will make a nice profit...shame we can't spend any till JANUARY!!!:confused:
Wow! First Keane and now Berbatov, sucks to be a Hotspur fan now...well more than usual ;D
We did ok (ish) against Chelski but are in bad need of another er whole f*cking team really
It's madness to sell our two best players:confused: and still expect to break the top four.
No ONE will for years!
Wow! that's big news...
Also 3 loses 1 draw in the last 4 games is not good.
Lyle,
You ready to see your team humiliated by Man U?
We'll meet in 2 weeks. :cool:
We should have Gerrard back by then but Torres just tore his hamstring and will be out for quite a while. Albert Riera should be making his debut as well which should send Kuyt down to striker to pair with Keane who can hopefully score a goal sometime soon.
I just hope we can put a half decent side out there....is Ronaldo going to play vs Liverpool? If not then we can go ahead and put a W up there
From what I see it looks like Man U still, whether or not City bid 34. At least that's the report I just read. Man City's made bids for everybody really, Berbatov, Villa, Gomez, the German who looked shitty in the Euros but is apparently pretty good.
I think Spurs would be fine if they'd just sign another striker after getting Pavlyuchenko. They signed Corluka and he seems pretty good, not to mention Tottenham ignores their back line too much so its good they're bringing somebody in. Hopefully he'll do well.
According to ESPN Man City have agreed to a 32.5 million fee for Robinho and Berbatov is doing a medical for Man U
Recent on BBC is athat Owen may be for Spurs. Decent addition IMO considering they shouldn't be paying over the odds for him.
On Berbatov, it's actually getting quite funny now. He's having a medical at united and refuses to go anywhere, thing is they haven't had permission from spurs to talk to him. I hope Levy says no and lets him sulk in the reserves til january, whenhe has to accept that his future is at city;D.
City snatched Robinho in the end instead. After bidding on Berbatov and David Villa! Pretty damn good still, for a team that has looked absolutely rubbish (in the UEFA at least, have yet to see them in PL this season).
Also, they are already talking up a Christiano Ronaldo bid :-X

Any Newcastle fans on this site btw?
So much for King Kev as 'The Savoiour'...
Ive got a soft spot for City, Im made up for them. Im a Blade, but love there supporters, down in the old 3rd division and they still sold out 32,000 every week. When Newcastle were there they got 8,000 turn up. Good luck to them. ;D;D;D;D
City are gonna be interesting this year
Now now we have a very good team this season. ;D
Seriously i was shocked about Robinho but i guess he had to leave Madrid and we were the only team who would stump up the asking price.
He's on 92k a week roughly...by the way. Still think it's something like a 20k a week hike from what he was on at Real
Transcript of Phone Call Between City & Kaka
I have come across dialogue between Man City and AC Milan superstar Kaka. Unfortunately I only have the script from the City end but I think it is clear for all as to the total content:
"Hello, is that Kaka? How do you fancy becoming the supply line to Craig Bellamy and Darius Vassell this winter?
"No, your fellow countryman doesn’t like the cold and will be out until mid April - but you will play alongside Stephen Ireland"
"No, Kaka, Ireland is a person not a country"
"yes, I fully appreciate that he is not Ronaldinho, Pirlo or even Beckham but many fans have him in their fantasy football"
"I know you are currently the richest man in Italy but we can double it!"
"erm, well, we have had a bit of a slide recently and we are currently 15th"
"erm, out of 20...... but Mark Hughes once won the double for our neighbours"
"Hughes"
"Ex Blackburn boss"
"Blackburn, Blackburn Rovers"
"No, Blackburn......Black.....Burn"
"HUGHES man, HUGHES!!!"
"He once scored a good goal against Spain"
"No, thats Gerry Armstrong..... anyway, are you coming or not?"
"Usually about two thirds full but if we play a big team its really rocks"
"yes I know, but we dont even have a car park cos all the fans walk to the ground they are so local"
"Relevance? well, I suppose its all they have to brag about whether its true or not"
"Only the one to be fair but its called 'blue moon' you will love it"
"Blue"
"yes, definitely blue, always has been"
"No, no, no, they are in Trafford"
"yes they are, steeped in it in fact but what good is history to you my ambitious friend?"
"erm, 1976 I think"
"it was the er, the er League cup if memory serves me right"
"Well, the plan was to get in the top 4 this season and then....."
"yes, I realise that but....."
"Aston Villa? Whats it got to do with them?"
"Yes, I know but we have been down this history route already"
"How the heck does a Brazilian playing in Italy know about Nottingham Forest?"
"Yes, yes, and Leeds United also made a final but you are missing my point, this is all about the future"
"Give me strength......HUGHES!!!!"
"yes I know he did and he was a legend there but he is a changed man"
"forget them, they are falling apart"
"But all those trophies were won last year! They have won nothing in 2009"
"I have told you.... 1976!!!!"
"How the heck does a Brazilian playing in Italy know that Virginia Wade has won Wimbledon since then?"
"Yes she probably is in her 60's"
"I dont know, probably about 10 league titles, 2 european cups and countless domestic cups what has that got to do with it?"
"76,000 why?"
"yes, every game, even minor cups I suppose, but where is this getting us?"
"Yes, the league cup is considered a minor cup over here why?"
"I know, I know, I know, ok perhaps they won the FA Cup in 1970 or something does it really matter?"
"look, Kaka, we will treble whatever you are on now, buy you a mansion in Alderley Edge and give you a helicopter for your front lawn....are you joining us?"
"NO!, its owned by the council - what has the ground got to do with anything"
"well, officially its the city of manchester stadium but most people call it Eastlands"
"EAST!, not Waste"
"You will be adored there"
"No, not there, here I meant"
"No, thats Old Trafford, I meant adored here at Waste....erm, Eastlands"
"Anderson??? what does he know?"
"Ok I hear what you say, but other than Pride, Ambition, Achievement, History, Passion and a large car park - what can they offer you?"
"what do you mean no credit left in your phone.....I phoned you"
"Hello, Mr Kaka,...... Mr Kaka are you there?............................
BA HA HA HA HA HA H AH AH AHA !!!! :lolhaha:
