Would be nice but I can't see him leaving Spain and Balague hardly ever seems to get his rumours right from what I have seen.

Rumour at the weekend was that should Alonso go then Rafa would look to sign Silva from Valencia?

About 30 million. That's Massive (c) alright.

Do you give the mods your pocket money voluntarily so that they don't have to beat you up for it?

This poster seems to have upset a few What’s happened to the infamous humour of United fans that we often hear about (from Rags, of course) www.redcafe.net/f6/tevez-poster- ... re-259181/ I love the fact that some of them actually do not know where United play.

Xabi has joined the squad for the asian tour, looks like he's staying

We haven't signed Wes Brown have we?

Babel looked quite good afains St Gallen.

From what I have read he wants to go if thats the case than I dont want him here £21Mil plus Wesley Sneijder and Alvaro Negredo thanks.

No, he's the England B full back.

if alonso wants to go let him

will be missed but if we got Sneijder or silva it would soften the blow

You had addressed a comment directly to me. And I answered directly.

If you wanted the point to be taken generally, you should have made that clear.

How touching. No. I don't receive pocket money, I give it. Have you tidied your room? And don't forget majorette practice.

My worry is that he could use Lucas as Alonso's replacement. Lucas gets a lot of harsh criticism, but even I admit he's average. If we were to sell Xabi, then a player of equal or potentially equal quality should be first choice. Your Hernanes', Martinez's and so on.

After seeing Dani Pacheco this pre-season, I'm starting to wonder whether we do need an attacking midfielder, he's been immense.

I was thinking, I wonder if the RSC-Adebayor partnership could be just as potent as the old Samaras-Corradi partnership? With Tevez being the new Vass, and Robinho being the new Tricky Trev, it seems the Stuart Pearce template has been followed well



All City need now is a Ben Thatcher for the away games

Because Liverpool have scored how many goals in two games?



I think the likes of Pacheco, Nemeth, Darby and Spearing would benefit from loan moves, because I don't expect many of them to feature much.

Doesn't mean he's not impressed. He's easily been the best player in our first two games, and has never looked out of place in the first team, which is more than you can say about Babel

I heard that too
Would be a very good signing in a position we are quite weak in.

That would leave us with little or no money (apparently) to sign a CM; Like someone said i think Lucas is being moulded into Xabi's role which he simply will not be able to fill. Best of luck to him though.

Silva would be a terrific signing IMO

Also Phil Brown looking to sign Voronin from Liverpool according to the Times Gossip column.

Welcome back Mr. Beckham

That just highlights how bad things were.



I know pre-season games mean nothing, but did anyone else see yet another clanger from Ben Foster?

Then five days later we signed Diouf from Molde.

Another brilliant mind game from Fergie. I'm sure there must have been about 5 people in the world who believed what he said about no new signings. Just imagine how stupid these people feel now.

Do you think John will leave?

First name terms now? Haha. He'd be a fool to leave..now..12 months down the line (a good season for Man City) could change that though.
