If Milner stays and he is on 30k a week and we have an 80k deal on the table - would he take 50k a week less for a year in his pay packet - thats 2.6 million pounds. Id like us to say that if he signed that we would honour the 30million buy out clause for the furture and we would get the best out of him for another year!

While were after Iversen perhaps we should make a bid for Les Ferdinand cus he used to be good at about the same time.

The ten dalmations song against walsall was well funny!!! Ten Dalmations walking down the street Ten Dalmations walking down the street and if Carson Yeung wants a bite to eat there'll be Nine Dalmations walking down the street.......

Whats with the SWP bashing, at last he tries to commit players and take them on unlike a certain Mr Downing we have. Man City have Ireland,SWP,Richards,Onohua,Bellamy etc all good players who will be shipped out with this 25 man rule. Id take any of them to be honest and with City wanting Milner its our ideal oppertunity to include as many of these good players as possible in the deal.

Bye James, short term the money of Man City may open your eyes but long term you could of been a holte end legend. Good luck warming the bench at shitty.

On a free and on a zimmer. and a hefty signing on fee and about 100k a week

The keeper one aint going to sell too many!!!

I like the kits only slight thing is the red sponsor on the away, red and claret dont go together!!!

Any pics? No just playing you up mate, im as inpatient as the rest on here ;-)

wow nice away kit!!

Di Maria was class in the world cup, apart from one game where the Germans were immense he was top quality.

But were a business and if you use your shop term its like someone going to the Asda George collection and trying to pay £50 for a shirt.

Id do 45m for both 30m for milner 15 for Gabby.... they have endless quuality strikers so why would they even consider gabby.

He is Over-rated as he aint in the same bracket as Messi,Ronaldo or Villa. But he is a very good player and im convinced he was playing with an injury to which it was the managers choice to take him out the team as it wasnt doing the team any favours.

Yaya Toure was really good yesterday, him and Melo of Brazil are players who i thought were average but have looked excellent in the opening world cup games. These players as examples are class above Milner and Barry etc. Im starting to think that if were offered the 27-28m then we should be taking it.

Its next month

Good post and nail on the head!!

Correct he has a heart problem but he has looked mega good for them - mega bargain for 2 million.. wouldnt mind a few squaddies like him for that price!

Why is Hart,Onouha,Bellamy,Ireland for Milner not possible. Onouha has had a bust up and is linked to a number of teams, Ireland Wants to Leave, Bellamy has been publicised to have conflict with Mancini and Hart is quality but they have Given who is one of the best keepers in the world in my opinion. I think its very possible if MON was intrested in the players mentioned.

Id go one further, Hart+Onouha+Ireland+Bellamy In return for Milner. We would end up with a replacement for Milner, Good Keeper to take over Brad Friedel for perhaps the next 15 years, Young Quick Right Back to Fight with Carlos for Right back and Bellamy who i think would be perfect up front for us. Do that deal and i think we would have a stronger starting 11 and squad. Sounds good! Nit-picking.. but is Bellamy worth £10m? Either way, we'd have a pretty strong squad! Hart, Friedel, Guzan Onouha, Cuellar, Davies, Dunne, Collins, Warnock Young, Downing, Ireland, Petrov, Delph, NRC Delfouneso, Gabby, Bellamy, Carew (I'm excluding the people I assume could be sold, and adding Heskey because that's my preferred departure!) That squad looks really good, Milner is good but we would be so stronger with this deal.

Cant beat a bit of pink!

We took him on loan when he got no football, tried to sign him from Newky for 4 million but got cancelled and we went back with club record 12 million. The club as a whole I feel James owes a great deal to with being the player he is today - so reassurances and gratitude to the manager who has put so much faith in should given. Our club is so much bigger than James Milner, as much as I like him I think if he goes we will get very good money to strenghten and start again.

Against our reserves he flapped at all crosses during the match - aint in the same league as Hart and its a waste if Englands potential keeper for the next 10-15 years dosent get games at City.

Youth is good in moderation - we have gabby and fonz up front so experience is essential. Also the youth has to be impressive and Cattermole aint better than what we already have sitting on the bench
