I don't think we could make a straight swap, unfortunately - Drogba is worth nowhere near £30 million. £15-£20 million is the most we'll get for a 30 year old, who will be 31 in March.

I doubt it, there were hardly any for the Southend game at the Bridge.

Correct, going back to the tail end of 06/07, also, he had some good performances under JM.

I take it you forget when we went through that phase? We were unbeatable.

I think people forget Sinclair's performance last season against Hull, and also against Huddersfield. The two big chances he got last season, and in those two games, he scored and got a couple of assists. I'm waiting for Stoch to impress me so.

You've helped yourself by calling it football Welcome

Sell Drogba to City.

Nice to see an opposition fan! Welcome to the forum, I'm Alex and one of the Admins around here. Hope you stick around, we're a relatively friendly group

I think we'll see Drogba start this one, possibly Carlo too after Spurs' apparent move for him.

Yeah, Samsung is such a massive brand it would moreorless be impossible to get a better sponsor.

Having seen more of Sinclair than I have of Stoch, it was only natural for me to go for Scott rather than Miroslav, although both are excellent players and in them we have a pair of top quality players.

Nah, United are the best team in the world at the minute and even Inter can't stop them.

Brazilian defender Kleber has revealed he expects to leave Santos in the current transfer window. The 28-year-old has been linked with Chelsea, who could be in the market for a left-back following Wayne Bridge's move to Manchester City. Kleber has previously declared his interest in signing for City, although it remains to be seen if boss Mark Hughes is looking to bolster his squad in that department. The full-back told Radio Record: "The president [Marcelo Teixeira] said to me that it is going to be very difficult to stay at Santos. "The officials wish to have an offer from Europe. That hasn't happened yet but it could happen up until the end of the window. "I know for sure that I will not continue at Santos because they have sold me to an investment group. "I am a little bit upset as I didn't know anything about that."

Kalou and Stoch on the wings would be rather good if you ask me.

I'll be bitterly upset if he doesn't play against Ipswich.

Scolari has other plans... in other words, CC23 is going nowhere. http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2009/ja...ttenham-hotspur

I didn't feel at all sorry for those who left the stadium. Its their choice. They spend £45+ on a ticket and leave with over 10 minutes left, hardly what I'd call loyal fans. Yes, I can understand they were annoyed and I might have been in half a mind to do so, but at the end of the day its their choice to leave, so its their fault and their fault only. Half of them who left are probably prawn sarnie brigade members from the west lower.

£15 million is certainly a tempting offer, but we should hold out for £70 million plus Robinho if you ask me

If City rival us for any player, its obvious they're going to beat us to them with a greater amount of money at their disposal. But that can work to our advantage, we just have to play the transfer market at its own game. For example, if we put down a £60 million bid for Aguero which was accepted, City would then have to pay a substantial more for the player. So if we don't get the player, we've made City spend more than they need to, and whilst they are busy negotiating for that one player, we can be going elsewhere at the same time as emptying their wallets that little bit sooner. Its not difficult, but I guess for Kenyon it is.

Completely agree with you, its much the same at Barcelona with Bojan overshadowing all their other young prospects.

If the team continue to show the passion and fight they did yesterday, we won't need Drogba.

Milan... Manchester... AC... City.... Fucking great juxtapositioning

We haven't won away, correct, but our home record is 3 wins from 3.

Lyon used to play with wingers, but now use a narrow midfield.

Belletti is a fucking genius, thats what he is
