Anything over 30m they'd be foolish to turn down.

Villa have signed Micah Richards.

If he can stay fit then that's a good signing for villa...guess Micah wanted to be close to his big mate Jolean, aw.

Maybe we are becoming Villa's feeder club

Is that inclusive on British blood inflation? If LFC are to sell, City are definitely going to get their pockets emptied. Fortunately you have trousers with infinite pockets.

Liverpool want too much money for Sterling and Wilshere doesn't want to leave Arsenal (and I doubt Wenger wants rid of him). So I wish City would focus elsewhere. This public chasing of overpriced Sterling and redneck clod Wilshere is annoying.

If LFC get 45M+ I think that would be excellent business for LFC and there is every chance City will get their money's worth. The British quota and new TV money add a substantial amount to the fee.

In saying that I wouldn't buy him for that

You also have to factor in the cost of nitrous oxide canisters ! Got to keep 'em happy !

I always get the impression that when we're after a player it's all over the papers everyday, but when chelsea chase a player they seem to have completed the deal before its publicised; could be wrong.

Spot on. I hate to give Chelsea credit for anything but their under the radar approach works well for them. I'd be tickled pink if City were more like that.

Speaking of pink, do we still have The Pink on Saturdays?

No Aguero tonight in Argentina's 1-0 win over Jamaica. Demi played 90 as did Zabs. Zabs picked up a yellow late and will miss the next match.

It was like a heavyweight boxing match where the champ throws nothing but jabs. Bored to tears.

Are City really prepared to pay nearly 90m for Sterling and the midget?

That's sad, he really was one of footballs entertainers.

The coded message is a bit strange though.

Does that mean they don't trust him going out getting pissed or something?

[mrbojangles]

Dupe.

I really hope not

[nev]

Sterling is not worth more than £30million IMHO, but hey he is young English and you pay a premium.

[jellydog]

Are City really prepared to pay nearly 90m for Sterling and the midget?

Please say no ! $30-35mil tops for Sterling, and Wilshere can stay where he is.

6/7 man of the match awards for England and you say you're after English players?

No problem, he ain't going anywhere anyway.

You could probably get Song, he's ex-Arsenal and cheap.

Hopefully we have a sell-on clause.

An emphatic yes.. As discussed many times on here, it's designed to stop anyone else joining the top table.

The fact Chicog asked that confirms my belief that he doesn't read and/or understand what people poster on here, either that or he thought maybe we've all changed our minds on FFP. Unbelievable!
