We've changed our number to a birmingham area code :eek:

Is there a link to this story? did you read it somewhere?

The deal probably isn't that bad, but we don't really have a need for De Jong and Johnson is good but both will be on wages we would not match and unlikely to take a pay cut to join us. So its probably a story made up for the sake of having a story and printed with any two players who seem to fit the bill and don't play much added in to add credibility to the story.

Bale £80m and he's yours City, how about that for a story

Thing is, if Bale and Modric want to go we have to make as much as we can. £40m plus Johnson aint that bad a deal but I am sure they could stretch to Milner as well.

Now that is a good deal.

Swap Milner for who you want, the point I am making is if we feel, for whatever reason that we should sell then we go for the best deal possible with cash plus players as they need to lower their wage bill. Milner and Johnson are both very good players to get for free, having made £30m profit on Bale as well.

Will not happen though imho.

K, £50m + Ade. Use the extra £10m to give Ade a phat signing on fee to compensate for wages in line with our other top earners for the durations of his contract.

That is if Bale decides to go down the route of most footballers and wanting the money and guaranteed trophies and is prepared to a massive vagina about it this summer. If he's happy to stay, Levy can say his two favourite words down the phone.

Close enough.

They'd regret ever phoning DL up again, they should have learnt a lesson when dealing with him last summer. By the end of the call we'll still have Bale, have Ade hre on a 3 yr loan with Citeh paying 100% of his wages and have sold them Defoe for £25m.

I have no doubt that many clubs, some of them even really big clubs with like a history and stuff, will be sniffing round our Gaaaareth. We qualify for the CL, it ain't happening. Let's just hope the two fingers the chavs got last summer resonated in a few people's heads.

Is there a semi-decent player on this earth that the journalists at various rags don't want Citeh to buy? :rolleyes:

Anyone at Barca or Real who isn't surplus to requirements. Other than that, nup. Every single one of them will be linked. It's the law. Just like chelsea back in 2003/2004.
