Balotelli in England for medical

[nicdic]

According to SSN, Mancini expects him to sign today or tomorrow.

 

[haxman]

Another £24m. It really is like Monopoly money to them.

 

[danielneeds]

Brilliant signing for us. Another over-hyped, overpayed egoist to add to their bitches brew of a dressing room. The fact that they are paying a player who hasn't achieved anything in football yet something like £150k should give everyone in the game a jolly good laugh.

I think if we are being honest, we are all slightly jealous of their spending power. I'm sure we would be loving the big new signings and not caring about the money too much if the boot was on the other foot...

 

[talkshowhost86]

So they now have...

Balotelli
Tevez
Adebayor
Santa Cruz
Bellamy
Silva
Johnson
Wright Phillips
Jo
Caicedo

All of those competing for 3 places if they go for 4-3-3.

Methinks there will be many unhappy campers there relatively soon.

Of course I would love Spurs to buy any player we wanted, but they are making a pigs-ear of it. Balotelli is a punk, much like Adebayor, he'll run riot.

And they have Robinho.

 

[talkshowhost86]

And they have Robinho.

I'd actually forgotten about him.

They're going to end up with a ludicrous number of players that aren't in their 25 if they're not careful. All on stupid wages as well.

 

[kishman]

Well here is what i think their 25 man squad will be for next season excluding those who are U21.

1. Shay Given
2. Joe Hart
3. Stuart Taylor
4. David Gonzalez
5. Aleksandar Kolarov
6. Jerome Boateng
7. Joleon Lescott
8. Wayne Bridge
9. Micah Richards
10. Kolo Toure
11. Pablo Zabaleta
12. Adam Johnson
13. David Silva
14. Gareth Barry
15. Patric Viera
16. Nigel De Jong
17. Shaun Wright Phillips
18. Yaya Toure
19. Vincent Kompany
20. James Milner
21. Emmanuel Adebayor
22. Carlos Teves
23. Roque Santa Cruz
24. Robinho
25. Jo

Major players missing are Craig Bellamy, Stephen Ireland and Michael Johnson.

 

[Kushal]

No Ball O'telly?

 

[kishman]

No Ball O'telly?

He's under 21.

 

[Kushal]

He's under 21.

Ah yes, cheers. That escaped me for a minute.

 

[nicdic]

Signed a 5-year deal.

 

[dontcallme]

Man City are certainly going to be intriguing this season.

 

[van_Pommel]

How are they going to have a wage bill under their annual turnover when that rule comes in? Mental northerners/arabs!

 

[Mornstar]

Man City are certainly going to be intriguing this season.

spurssince57's brother in law is in for a hell of a season.....thought i'd say it before he sees this thread.

 

[DJS]

The amount Man City is throwing around really is disgusting and they have no concept of how to build a proper team.

Plus this Balotelli appears to be a right arrogant tosspot to boot, even more so then your average arrogant footballer.

Dad said he came across as really shitty when he saw him on Sky Sports plus even Wiki say he has an attitude problem!

I really hope Man City shit out big time this season...
