Surely he can't be after 100k?

WHU are supposedly in for him and I thought I heard Nicko say that they are not exactly fledge at the moment.

Gudjohnsen could get us 15+ goals next season,with the right service,more than Crouch or Bent could.. But hey that's just my opinion, not Sam's, and I do have huge trust in the man.

He's on a 100k at Barcelona, I don't think he would take much of a cut. We won't be able to negotiate down becuase every club in the Prem would be interested apart from the big four (or maybe even including them - I could see Man Utd having a look in their current striker predicament. Same with Liverpool (Torres and Gudjohnsen would be an excellent pairing). And Chelsea).

Plus, as others have said, he doesn't seem that enthused about the game at the moment. I can't see it happening.

Correct and Benjani & Jo who is out on loan.

Aswell as Santa Cruz, Robinho, Adebayor (?), Tevez, Caciedo, Bojinov

Its not fair!!! :o

Would love Bellamy to return, but I cant that happening.

The really annoying thing is that all of them will be on silly money too. I am not sure we could afford the wages of any of them apart from Caciedo. Ridiculous. Bellamy's probably on 70k. I doubt he will play more than 15 games for them next year. Sad.

Sad thing is we can put the bids in for all these names, but the big hurdle seems to be wages... :rolleyes:

Not all of them - We can pay up to 60-65k for a top, top player, however we wont pay that to any old monkey.

:angry: It is getting ridiculous now. Time for the FA to introduce salary caps. Stop Man City taking the absolute P***.

If the FA did that, then they would all just move to other leagues like Italy or Spain.

Agree with what you are saying. There definatly needs to be something in place to stop it getting out of hand though. Its getting to the point where its more important to get taken over than to actually compete for the honours and win money the fair way. I think I just hate Man City.

Could he be using the media to his advantage to push a few things!?? ;)

Haha, I was thinking similar actually!

He's on a 100k at Barcelona, I don't think he would take much of a cut.

Surely he can't be on £100k? I mean, even for Barcelona that's a damned heft wage. He isn't even a starter and I'm not sure he ever was.

Would clubs not get around that by giving huge signing on bonuses then?

They'd be pretty stupid to blow the opportunity of bringing these overpaid whores down a peg or two.

Don't give Man City too much stick.

If it wasn't for their money you would have nothing to spend this summer...

either that or we would still be looking at bringing in a right winger... ^_^

No but we'd still have a striker who, if he realised nobody else wanted him after last season, might just have settled down and scored a few goals for us

With no money...

And suddenly Andy van der Meyde would feel like the second coming.

I think I would rather have the money than a disinterested player...especially when the money is THAT silly.

Any word on how Vieri and Van Der Meyde are shaping up in the pre-season training?

Quite well considering...

Although these two would surely only be fringe men.

Just a bit worried you are gathering too many of them just now. Jacobsen, N'Zonzi, van Heerden...Givet is the only one signed so far who is a proven Premier player.

Now there's some fuel for the doubters fire.

I'd agree with you on that, but could he have afforded to be uninterested in playing if he really wanted a move - he'd have had to at least look like he was trying or he'd have been stuck here. and I've nothing extra against City that i haven't always had. However, the stupid way they are trying to splash the cash and getting knocked back by players is annoying, because instead of that they could actually have set sensible targets like santa cruz and Barry for all positions and probably got them. Instead they are so into grandstanding, going after players who don't want to be part of their "project" and can't even be persuaded by silly wages that they are messing the whole transfer process about.

We can't afford proven Premiership players. Of our squad the only players who had played consistently in the Prem before signing for us are Diouf, Dunn, Roberts and Robinson.

We are, like half the clubs in the prem, habitual risk takers on this front.

Pretty much the furthest away from Hughes's policy of only bringing in players to improve the first XI, wouldn't you say?

I've got to admit, I can't see the point in bringing these two in. We have a pretty bloated squad already, we need quality - not ageing players eating up the wage bill.

One quality striker, one quality midfielder. The latter I don't think we'll be getting but the former is absolutely essential.
