      Why don't City's owners just buy every team in the Premier league, take whatever players they need, and be done with!!!  :tosser:

      I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love  :kop5cf8koxp6:

      Of course.

      Rafa Benitez has barring a few special signings (Alonso, Garcia, Torres ) has failed to set the world alight in the transfer market.

      Yes we can say it is partly because of the lousey transfer budget he has available to him, but for me I believe that when he does bring players into the club, those players just aren't involved enough to warrant the fee.

      The players any manager buys have not got to be world class, Arsene Wenger has proved this season after season but Rafa doesn't have that ability to turn average players into excellent team players and that is why I wouldn't trust him to buy any more. It's not even the fact he wasted so much on Aquilani, although that would be another example!

      Torres, Alonso, Garcia, Benayoun, Kuyt, Mascherano, Johnson, Agger, Skrtel, Reina, Pacheco.
      Also ex head of Barcelona Youth Development Rodolfo.
      We wont have to entrust vast amounts of money to Rafa because he has now set in place the people to develop our squad without having to resort to gambles on older players.
      Anyway that getting off topic.
      The point of this is I cant see Torres (One of Rafas signings) leaving anytime soon. Or put it this way if he is going so is Rafa, Gerrard, Mascherano, Reina and the soul of the Club as the banks get their money by asset stripping.
