Just Borini and Suarez.
Think it leaves them pretty light tbh. Borini is only 21, and then Yesil is 18. Bit of a risk IMO.

Suarez, and it looks like we're going to bring through Morgan from the academy this season.
Oh yeah, then they really need another striker: Borini, new striker, Yesil. And Suárez in case of emergency, since he mostly plays as winger.

City's draw for the CL is so harsh.
5 days after they play away to Real, they host Arsenal.
4 days after they're home to Real, they go to Chelsea.
4 days after they're away to Dortmund (which could be the deciding game), they host United.
Tough luck.
Delighted with that.

Yeah, I think City are just waiting for De Jong and Santa Cruz to go before they spend big.

We are really lucky with the draw. If we had got some tougher teams this run of fixtures would look horrid. It's still gonna mean we need to use the squad to the max because we have tough league games followed/preceding the CL games, but fortunately the CL opposition isn't as tough as it might have been.

1M for Yesil is very affordable
Is Yesil good enough to come straight in tO the first team Elsk?

Try and raise his price for the next year, I guess?
He's a certain starter at West Ham and Fat Sam's style should suit Carroll.
Finally bought a centre half. Maya Yoshida, Japanese international from VVV-Venlo .

Theyre paying 100% of his wages.
Maybe. SSN are reporting that there's a view to buy at the end so who knows!
I doubt it. He's too small for a physical league like the PL, he will need a lot of time to adapt.

Migliaccio apparently to Fiorentina. Not too happy with that, although he's not a fantastic midfielder he's one of the few that will always fight his heart out. Bought Luigi Giorgi and still looking for a left back, better fucking get one cause it looks horrible down there.
Hey I didn't say who I was cheering for. That Zenit win in the Europa League a few years back was fantastic, was cheering for you all the way and hope you can do good again. I'm a pessimist though and Belgian teams doing well is bad news for Danish football.
And I was rooting for Copenhagen against Lille, too.

I want to know this also.
We have to be going for someone now if we've freed up £80K from the wage bill.
A loan deal for Carroll is the only thing that would drive his price up. He needs time on the pitch and to perform. West Ham are never going to give you a big fee so you don't want a buy option with them anyway.
As for Llorente isn't he too expensive? I remember the asking fee for him being absurd.
Carroll is on 80k?! Fucking hell.
Anyway, we're finally getting Cavani tomorrow. Believe.
We might be waiting until January.
I don't have a fucking clue; the only reason we'd let Carroll go out on loan is because we want to bring a new attacking option in with fairly hefty wages.
Berbatov.
No news on United's search for a Midfielder
Essien's lost it, Arsenal should steer well clear of him. I imagine Tiote or Cabaye is another one of those three, perhaps the both of them. Ligue 1 player has to be that Montpellier defender.
Hope the Carroll deal includes an agreement that he can't play against us.
I don't think I'd be against this.
Essien? Fuck off Wenger....
I can't see Montpellier wanting to do business with us now that we are in the same CL group.

Pretty tough sell.
Not that great a player tbh, and DM isn't a flashy position. Into last few months of contract and it's clear he won't be signing a new one so basically, Milan know City have to sell now or never. And the Gold Tie.
What would be a "fair value" for De Jong? £10m? Then consider Milan know City don't really want him, and that he's on a free before too long.
Marwood's done well just to get him out the door.
I don't understand why when a new manager enters a club they immediately feel the need to stamp their authority on the club and alienate players. What exactly was the point of Rodgers treating Carroll like a piece of shit before he even walked through the gates of Anfield? Don't get me wrong, I think he's a shit footballer, but Carroll was starting to show some form at the end of last season, he wanted to stay and fight for his place, and he does at least offer something different. AVB is doing the same to Van der Vaart at Tottenham - one of their best players last season.

According to SSN Arsenal have shown an interest in Remy from Marseille. Its SSN though so probably bullshit
You know it.

I'm not that worried about Anderlecht, to be honest. We beat them 3-1 both times in the Europa League two years ago and we are significantly stronger than we were then. Malaga scares me more.
