Rob182 Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Sound logic. But it is City, their owners probably think the difference between 7 and 12 million pounds is negligible. Also they sold Dunne for £6m. True.. but Dunne was late 20's and most people hadn't heard the best reviews about him. Ireland was probably Man City's best player 2 seasons ago and is still really young. Though Man City have buckets of cash, I doubt that they would let their "4th place rivals" take Ireland off them for less than £10m-£12m. ... And to the people disputing MysteryMan.. Do you not think it's a bit of a coincidence that he said "the sponsor will be announced today" and then it was? (yes he came back and said it'd been delayed 'til next week, but plans can change and I don't think a "random-guess" would have worked out that well) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Have heard we are after some Ipswich striker, young and a good prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beasley14 Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Would love to go with Hart as GK. Friedel has done well but you`ve got a keeper for the next Decade there if you get him. Part of me wants to get a few from City especially if we lose MIlner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beasley14 Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Very good player and will probably be worth it in the end but its a bucket load of money and maybe too big a risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 From what I've seen, don't think he's that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milfner Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Same, he played a lot this season, and barely scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Oh right, must be true then - did he say we were interested in Zigic as well !! I have just put these words into a search engine Litex Manolev Villa and 100's of pages come back, all from now saying us and Man City are tracking PSV's Manolev. there is not one page saying that we had bid / they had turned us down / he had turned us down etc... Now I put Villa Zigic in and every page says either Villa deny bid made , or agent states Villa were interested. Opinion, I have not / cannot see anything saying we made any attempt for this manolev at lovech And I will believe MON / Villa / his agent / and every sports journo in Europe over this MM who has no evidence to back things up. And the two that did happen out of the blue - Dunne and Heskey , he totally denied we were interested in them ! I'll stick to the In the shirt on the pitch thing cheers The Litex Lovech chairman came out and said!!! I'm not the only one who remembers!! http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12875_5455038,00.html http://www.football-transfers.co.uk/2009/07/page/2 Obviously it's hard to find an article of a bulgarian site on google dating back to last year, but as you can see, he was linked with us and I'm sure others can back it up. (It's on last year's speculation thread too but don't know where that's gone) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Apparently we still are aren't we? Wouldn't be suprised if he was signed. Warnock, Luke Young....I think once he likes a player, if he can't get him one year, he doesn't mind going back in for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warnock, Luke Young....I think once he likes a player, if he can't get him one year, he doesn't mind going back in for him. I've noticed that with almost all managers, they like a player and they get them eventually if they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Sorry yeah, I was thinking about the fact we could of got him for cheaper a year earlier as in, we went for him but didn't get him. But we didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_eristic Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Are we linked with a player from Netherlands by any chance? just curious. We were linked (rather unrealistically, we mostly concluded) with Van der Wiel last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
