Surely we can cope with Carra, Darby and Degen until Johnson is fit? Kelly is back training again soon - how many full backs does he want!

Get someone we actually NEED!

Greek # 2 (RB) incoming!!

Rafa sees Degen and Johnson's best position at right midfield. No money to buy a striker so Kuyt will play that role now.

Or Allan Hutton  :help

Hope we will get Jones in return if this happens.

skysports.com understands City are remain confident on signing Roman Pavlyuchenko despite seeing a substantial offer turned down by Tottenham on Friday. The Russian striker appears to be McLeish's number one target before Monday's deadline.

I thought this Russian lad was supposed to be good - explains why Spurs bought Gud-yo-hansen anyway.

I reckon if Citeh offered us £100 million for nando in the summer then we should sell him. That is just an insane amount of money for a player who unfortunately seems to be getting more and more injury prone. he is arguably the best striker in the world but the rest of our team are not good enough to deserve or need him. We would be better off spending the £100 million on getting 3 top players, 2 strikers and a winger.

Ok let's assume we get 100Mil, firstly what makes you think Rafa will get all of it to spend? The owners still don't have a pot to :censored: in, we are already out of Europe and may finish outside the top 4 so that means no CL run money for the rest of this season and maybe none next season. Based on what happened with the Alonso money you think we will get to spend all of it on new players?

Also everyone will know we have 100 burning a hole in our pocket so will naturally want more for their players. Sorry mate but Torres just needs rest that's all. Unfortunatley he wont get any this summer (unless Spain go out early which I really do hope happens from a selfish point of view (towards Torres of course)).

Selling Torres would be madness mate. He is one of the few players we have left that we could call world class.
