Are you being serious

The thing I hate about City is that despite giving these players they now want out ridicolusly generous pay packets - which in itself means they'll be unable to offload most of them - it's not an issue as they can afford whoever they want, and now they are in the Champions League good players are willing to entertain the idea of playing there

To describe them as in freefall is absolutely ludicrous

But they have already made a couple of signings - who I hasten to add have been better than ours - and wilst their midfield still looks weak, with Ferguson at the helm you just can't see them falling outside the top 3

The only top 4 team which you can see falling off is Arsenal - as many of their best players look set to leave - but Wenger's tea, has been written off time and time again and yet they always qualify for the Champions League

Finishing in the top 4 will a lot more difficult than many fans on here think and tbh I don't know whether players like Adam and Henderson really add that much to our squad - which is already inferior to the top four


May I just comment on the city downfall thing, I agree it is not possible for them to be in downfall, however I should argue they are not likely do as well if Tevez parts company, this is mainly due to the fact that Tevez was the top scorer last year by a country mile, and the second top scorer for them is a defensive midfielder in Yaha Toure, due to Mancini's tactics they don't finish teams regularly to be a consistent performing team.


I agree

City were sh*t last season - but due to the competition - or rather lack of it - they were able to finish in the champs league

Mancini's tactics are waaay too defensive, in Gary Cook they have the worst chairmamn in the league by a country mile and because of their less than stellar recent past most of the players they have signed are cut-throat mercenaries like Gareth Barry who would happily kill their own parents so long as the money is right

But with all that money and CL football - they are a team who like Chelsea have the luxury of being able to afford to waste millions in their pursuit of glory

Whatever city create or score its through tevez. They might buy aguero but he will never be as effective as tevez.

At the moment that's true - but whise to say they won;t find someone just as good, if not better than tevez

We all know they can afford it - and with CL football they at last look like a plausible destination to go to

It's a shame Manchester is a sh*thole but that's never been that serious a problem for United

If we get two or three more signings it will frankly be impossible to say where we will finish; along with the rest. It is going to be so tight, so competitive that any of the usual suspects could win it on the last day.

Anyone writing-off Arsenal are getting ahead of themselves. Wenger has a little more work to do in the window with the bump or two that have cropped up nothing more. He has the funds available to correct it and arguably the finest knowledge of players worldwide in the game. Throw the fact that he is now under more pressure than usual and would have analyzed what they need in to the mix and they could easily ending up spending like Vegas and winning it.

End of the window will be clearer. If anything the weakness maybe City, not the strength. Could see them blowing up big time if Tevez throws a tantrum and refuses to come back. Can't see the dressing room there being great either.


Cracking stuff lies in wait!

I agree with your take on Arsenal and Arsene Wenger. But he seems very reluctant to spend on big names but rather he spend on potential. I sincerely think that he needs to take a little risk. Not every player can shift position and be successful like Thierry Henry. Let's see what he will do if he do lose Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri. There are paper talks that Arsenal have accepted the transfer for Samir Nasri from Man City. So if he do lose Cesc Fabregas , who will he build his team around? Jack Wilshere or Aaron Ramsey?Hopefully Liverpool can take advantage of Arsenal's situation at the moment and overtake them in the coming season. Only if we can solve our own problems first.


For Man City , Roberto Mancini needs to find a way to gel his players in order challenge next season. Player on player , I think they are the best in nearly every position but as a team they falter badly. Balotelli , Dzeko , Silva , Yaya brothers , Kolarov. These are the few of the best in their position but they have yet to gel together. So Roberto Mancini better get it right or we will see the back of him sooner rather than later...
