How big a threat are Man Shitty?

[The Special One]

[silverlining]

£35m for John Terry, at wages of £200,000 or whatever, seems to be a bit insane.

 

Good player, yeah. A "leader".

 

But at his age, with that back, and no pace, it's still going to require another £25m to get a player like Carvalho next to him, because otherwise, it isn't going to work.

[RedinSweden]

It will be ace if Terry goes to them. Massive blow to Chelsea.

[Red Phoenix]

Could be interesting seeing what happens today, something this big won't go unreported until further in the week.

[Cath]

Well Ancelotti's trotted out the expected Terry will stay and I love him to bits line. It would seem that Terry has definitely had his head turned by the City offer. Guess it depends on whether he gets on with Ancelotti and how much Ancelotti wants him to stay. New manager may well be tempted to let him go and get someone else in with the cash. Don't think Chelsea have as much dosh as previous seasons.

[Strontium]

Let's all laugh at Chelsea cos their captain's head has been turned by a club with bigger pockets than them...

 

oh wait

[Red Phoenix]

Ancy's said not for sale at any price too, could be a fun few days. (or hopefully day as something stops it from being the next thing we get sick of reading about.)

It is ironic that it is Chelsea it is happening to though, which makes it far funnier.

it wasnt the money that turned Gerrard you prat, its the fact we were coming 5th while they won the league

[ToxtethTerror]

Terry is worse than Gerrard though. Stevie wanted to leave because he wanted to play with better players and wanted a league title. Terry is leaving for money.

Anyone who thinks Gerrard to Chelsea is in ANY WAY comparable to Terry to City, is a weapons-grade bellend.

Seriously.

Looks like Lucio is on the way from Bayern to City. Good buy for them.

[Megadrive Man]

Is there any fee mentioned for Lucio?

 

bearing in mind he's 31 and the top European League he's played in is the German League, i'd imagine about 20 million?

 

a very underated player in my opinion but wether he could cut it in the premiership now though is another matter.

Lucio is a good player, but Bayern are easily the most skilled club in the German League and aren't exactly pulling clean sheets out of their arses.

 

He gives City a very real threat from set pieces with his headers but at 31? I think they've made a truly stupid purchase.

 

They should have kept trying for Lescott, to be honest.

[fowler9]

why whenever someone is linked to these shitbags does everyone believe it will actually happen?

From BBC :

 

Manchester City have ended their interest in Barcelona's Cameroon international striker Samuel Eto'o.

 

The two clubs had been in talks over the £25m-rated striker after Barca told the 28-year-old Eto'o they were prepared to let him leave the Nou Camp.

 

City chief executive Garry Cook said: "The circumstances surrounding him were such that a deal couldn't be completed. ---

 

 

Aaaaaaahahaaaaaa. Twats.

A.K.A. - He turned down the small club.

 

Hey Robinho, Tevez, Barry... Are you watching?

 

I bet Tevez joins Chelsea.

[Original202]

A Manc mate of mine says the Tevez deal is 99% done but the premier league and the FA are scrutinising all of the details to make sure it's all watertight.

 

It would be funny if it fell through though and they ended up with just Barry, Santa Cruz and Stuart Taylor.

Apparently, Lescott is close to a deal to Shitty.

Taking their fucking time, starting to get really sick of that now. And I wouldn't put it past Man City to end up with a good few more players. Despite laughing about them not getting Eto'o they're going to be a different prospect next season.

I agree

 

They might just finish with more points than they did 2 years ago under Sven
