I just don't get why is there a sky blue stripe across the front of the away kit. Makes it look the City away kit 3 seasons ago!

@Shon3x: Agree with that lineup but not Fellaini in there. Not what we need for our midfield!

A really tragic news. RIP Manolo Preciado.

No thanks. We need a central midfielder but not a robust and combative type like Fellaini. Need a creative one!

Don't think City are really interested in him. There are strongers links linking him to United it seems, and those fellas on Redcafe have somewhat jumped the gun that he will be joining them.

Would kinda agree with that but in this case, I don't see what the problem is. The board are basically buying the type of players that whoever our next manager is would do as well and that is getting in wingers to the team, which we have lacked in recent years. The players brought in may not be exactly the manager's liking but who would be complaining if they can have Hazard, Marin & very possibly Hulk in the same team? Those are quality players that would increase squad depth and make differences in matches.

Just the thought of Redknapp managing us has already made me sick!

They are afraid he is going to have a blinder against us...

Hilario just signed a one year contract extension back in March.

General consensus of those fellas on Redcafe is Hazard only joined us because of money while some say Kagawa is the better of the two. Typical.

http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/23222/7797204/Super-Cup-clause-for-Courtois Personally, I would have liked him to feature against us. Would like to see how he deals with the challenge.

BEST: 1. Ending Man City's unbeaten run 2. Thrashing Spurs at Wembley 3. Beating those scousers for the FA Cup 4. Valencia and Napoli at home 5. Barcelona away at the Camp Nou 6. CL Final in Munich WORST: 1. Losing to Liverpool & Arsenal in PL 2. 3-0 up and then drew 3-3 with Man United. 3. Inconsistency in the Premier League

Don't think he will leave Dortmund this summer. Looks very much set to stay at the cllub.

Really? Couldn't remember about it. Should be trying out more.

He said this though... Worrying...

Not wanting to be too disrespectful to Bosingwa here because he has played his part in our recent success but is it really worth discussing about his defensive deficiencies anymore now that he has been released?!

Don't think his style of management is gonna be suitable in England. Almost too strict being an Italian & players won't like that. On top all of that, if we are to progress forward, we need a younger & hungrier manager and not one who is looking for one last big pay job! Think I would prefer Guardiola over Capello.

Gawd no please. Capello is already 66 FFS!

Harry said Champions League is overrated and the Premier League is enough awhile ago on Sky Sports. He wouldn't be saying that if Spurs were in it!

Won't be cheap to get Martinez but it would be great if we get him. Versatile, very athletic & a combative player.

Only ones I remembered are the CL home game and the 2 games last season. 1 penalty that should have been but wasn't given. 2 offside goals. And 2 non-penalties that was given!

You mentioned about it...

1 lost from 2 games last season is hardly anything to shout about. Record in last 7 encounters in all competitions is even worse(!) - W1 D1 L5.

Probably. Would have definitely like to see Arsenal miss out on it mainly because of the way Wenger seems to take so much pride from qualifying for the CL every season. Had Arsenal been in Spurs's place instead, Wenger's reaction would have been priceless.

Get your point but not convinced by it unless the FBs take turn to push forward. Can't just go all gung-ho even if it's against the smaller teams. Fair enough. Would agree with that!
