      Get real, just cos they've got a bit of cash to spare, they think they can buy the world.  No way would Nando disappear down the M62.

      I agree, But if an offer like that was to come in and Benitez accpeted, Do you think there's a chance Torres would get unhappy?

      Haha that's ridulous. There's a higher chance I'll be playing for them come January than Nando! He loves Liverpool.

      Now though, I would love if they bought the entire ManU team for LOLs!

      No it didn't say anything about £120 M for Torres in that article.

      Pure bullshit.  BUT if they offered that kind of money, it would be hard to say no.

      There will be all sorts of talk about City in the next few months Nando aint goin anywhere though. Makes you think what we'd be talking about ourselves if DIC had been allowed to take over i'd say the Sheik could buy and sell this fella at City

      It wont happen, just because City have all this money now does'nt mean they can get any player they want and to be honest if they are offering teams like us and the mancs over 100million+ and it got accepted then we could just go and buy the likes of Messi and Villa and Ramos, players who they would never get.

      Torres comes under the category of who they will never get so they can F**k right off if they are going to try anything, he would turn them down anyway because of the affection he has with Liverpool and us fans. He would'nt be able to play against us in the same league just like he would'nt be able to ever play for another Spanish team. They are becoming so deluded, and im not siding with the Mancs in anyway shape or form here but why the hell would they go and sell there best player and one of the best around the a rival such as City, i think they would rather him go to Madrid.

      The thing that amuses me is that they plan on getting these players in January, that is right in the middle of the Champions League basically and all these players they want will not leave Champions League for Man City.

      Also they only got Robinho because he is in it for the money and settled for 2nd best, he did'nt want City and he proved that by how much he said he wanted to go to Chelsea and they know that so they went and offered him £4mill a year.
      They can offer Torres £10mill a year and they still wont get him, some players are just untouchable when it comes to the transfer market and Fernando Torres is one of them so i have 2 words for you City.

      Jog on!

      Arent these the same guys who claimed they would pay 135 million for Ronaldo? ::)

      F***ing get real, they have money, big whoop! They dont have any formula to create a winning side, they can buy Robinho but they wont get any more stars without the lure of CL footy while the top 4 can still buy those same players for less.

      If they came in with 120 mill. i'd tell them to quadruple it and then i'll possibly consider it. We cant replace him, if we do who would be just as good? He is a Spanish Scouser no doubt, no better person to play up front for us.

      What could tempt the owners would be the fact that it would make one hell of a downpayment on the new stadium.  ::)

      But no, I don't think we should sell.

      Benitez wouldn't accept any offer for Torres, it would be the American G*bsh*tes if anyone accepted an offer for Torres!  It'll never happen... Losing a player like Torres would leave many other players at the club disillusioned.

      Not surprising!

      It'd take a large portion of that sum just to replace him, and his possible replacement would have no guarantees to perform just as well in the EPL.

      Yeah, Although we wouldn't want to give up Torres, If an other like that came in then just think we could make our team 20x better.

      Still i'd keep Nando though :D

      will we sell is the question. if it was up to me no.......but its basically up to the americans.....they would probably sell him then say to raffa, so what , do what you will and raffa will walk

      but the money would be good for us

      but you cant replace Torres..........look at keane, he cost nearly as much and is only half as good
      the staduim would be all systems go..........

      but why havent they gone after gerrard........hes probably worth just as much

      oh also

      we will have to think of a obbible nickname for city now as there is the scum and urinals.........

      I imagine they will bid silly money for everyone. But if everyone sells to them, it'll just make a mockery of the league.

      Chelsea tried with Henry and Gerrard a few years back and failed. It's just not in your interests to sell to your rivals, if that's what City can become.

      Also, why would Torres want to leave his Spanish enclave, and Gerrard leave his hometown club? They are rich enough, and happy where they are.
