      I'm not sure I'd be happy with the hollow satisfaction of buying our success. I'd like to think that when/if we eventually win the league it'll be down to a certain level of process,an implemented footballing philosophy, a top class youth system etc.

      It's that reason why I've probably got more respect for Manchester United than Manchester City as a club

      What?  :o

      Manchester City team which finished the recent game against Utd:

          25 Hart - £1.5m
          04 Kompany - £6.7m
          05 Zabaleta - £6.5m
          06 Lescott - £22m
          22 Clichy - £7m
          18 Barry - £12m
          07 Milner - £26m
          02 Richards - n/a
          42 Y Toure - £24m
          16 Aguero - £38m
          34 De Jong - £16m
      _______________________
      Total: £159.7m

      Manchester Utd team which finished the same game:

          01 De Gea - £18.9m
          03 Evra  - £5.5m
          04 Jones - £17m
          05 Ferdinand - £28.5m
          12 Smalling - £10m
          11 Giggs - n/a
          19 Welbeck - n/a
          16 Carrick - £18.6m
          18 Young - £17m
          25 Valencia -    Â£16m
          10 Rooney - £27m
      ________________________ _
      Total: £158.5m

      Not exactly poles apart are they?

      As for Hazard? ... They're welcome to him.

      ^^

      I like how United fans complained that City practically "bought" the title but they seem to forget they've spent 15 million or more on Van Nistelrooy (19 mil), Veron (28 mil) , Ferdinand (30 mil), Carrick (16 mil) , Anderson (18 mil) , Nani (17 mil), Berbatov (30 mil), Rooney (26 mil) even before Ronaldo was sold for 80 mil and no one really highlights how crap some of them are. I hadn't even included Valencia (18 mil), Young (20 mil), De Gea (20 mil) and Jones (16 mil) because they were bought after Ronaldo was sold.

      And fck me .. the price they've paid for some of them were 10 years + ago and it's just ridiculous for that time.

      Well he confired the other day he'd be joining a team that plays in blue, so that rules out the picnic brigade.

      I don't think he will come to us, and also I'm not sure he is the right choice for us anyway.

      If he does go to City though they will almost certainly have to let someone go.

      Their first team may amount to the same value now but to be fair it's taken United longer than 2-3 years to build that team, City have spent that money in a shorter time span. United were the premier league champions before that squad was introduced, their success was based on success, City's success is based solely on their recent investors, same with Chelsea, surely you can see that?

      I hate United more than any team in the world and I was relieved City won the title, but I've got more respect for them as a club than I have for City.

      Anyway, as long as we steal Johnson from them for a reasonable price I'll be happy.

      Couldn't see City selling him to us to be honest.

      Why we aren't competing with them are we? They don't need Johnson we do. They need money to start complying with FFP. Why wouldn't they sell him to us for 10-15 million?

      Not sure whether them winning the league will be the full reason for him going but could be a handy little smokescreen for him signing and lots of other 'talent' going there.

      Money.

      Because they don't have to mate. They seem to just buy players and think what they'll do with them afterwards.

      I do think Mancini will want to get rid of some players and replace them with others. Johnson will probably want to go somewhere he can play more regularly so he can get in the england team. We are perfect for him and he is perfect for us.

      Why not?  They let us have bellamy.  If it helps them reduce their wage bill, then I can see it happening.

      But is Johnson part of their HG quota?

      The last thing they'd want to do is hand their players to clubs like us.

      Probably sell them abroad or loan them to CardifF!

      GK - Taylor, Hart, Nielsen, Pantilimon

      Defenders - Richards, Bridge, Kompany, Zabaleta, Lescott, Kolarov, Savic, Clichy, Toure, Cunningham, Boyata

      Midfielders - Milner, Johnson, Johnson, Barry, Nasri, Hargreaves, Silva, De Jong, Weiss, Toure, Ibrahim, Razak

      Forwards - Adebayor, Dzeko, Santa Cruz, Aguero, Nimely, Balotelli

      By next season, they will have a 32 players for a 25 man squad.

      I think they wont mind selling players to us. Last season the sent adeb to spurs on loan. Since we are not a challenger to them i hope we ll be able to get some of their unwanted players. Who could be better than our current players.

      hazard isn't coming here.

      Realistically, I wouldn't mind milner or johnson. Both hard working, both will add a bit of quality, both would fit in well. Could see them both wanting to move for first team football too. Get the pair for 25m
