Forum is slower than a scouser.

No wonder they knocked us back.

It's just good to be a member of a great forum in all honesty, and being voted for is an added bonus IMO. Great forum and lots of of really good members, the mods do a great job also.

I have text Schwarzer to see if he fancies coming here

Apparently Pellegrini wants Dzeko to remain at City and they will not pursue Cavani anymore.

Making a mountain out of a mole hill, I can imagine Jose was delighted when we lifted the CL trophy last year, to a point I bet he celebrated like one of us. He's part of this club even when at Madrid, he's just a supporter in a managerial role and a super manager at that.

Far too premature.

Pay the out clause, this isn't difficult....or walk away FFS.

Need to stay realistic amongst all this hype and rumours. ADL could easily come out and pour water on this fire, be prepared for days, weeks,months of up's and downs.

Italian transfer 'expert' Jose Alberti tells Goal Radio that Edinson Cavani has a pre-agreement with Chelsea and will sign after Confed Cup

Isn't he some sort of Chelsea employee?

Hazard Mata Schurlle Cavani

BlueMoon forum in meltdown again

I will try and stay grounded.......It could be champagne time.

Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has confirmed a €40m bid to sign Erik Lamela and Marquinhos from AS Roma.

Napoli apparently want Biabiany of Parma to replace Cavani.

Rooney met with Wenger...

De Rossi in.

Apparently according to City fans our interest is bullshit of the highest order and some going so far to say as he already signed with City last year. Shitting their nappies they are

Over at Blue Moon it's meltdown and we are not even interested apparently. They know everything apparently and we are not even in the frame. I pity them.

Not yet, that De laurintis bloke is too busy in his hot tub with ladies massaging his ego and thighs.

Interesting comments, a really up and down summer ahead.

If we have an injury in a two man striker force it reduces it to one, and a freak red card etc can leave us having nobody and doing what we did against Napoli in the CL winning season and playing a stranger up top, it's a huge, huge risk to take with the amount of games we play as a club. Last season we were massively fortunate that Torres, as bad as he was at times did not get an injury as the run in and clamber for fourth would of been tougher than it was. We need to avoid that at all costs again by buying/introducing another body. Torres did well in the run, worked hard and put himself about, I'm sure Jose would make him even better, and the prospect of Lukaku, Mata, Hazard, Oscar and Cavani under Jose is a tremendous thought.

Offloading Torres and Ba would be wrong, we would then be in the same situation as last season with two strikers. Cavani and Lukaku and nothing else, we need more back up. My take is keep Torres, Lukaku back in, plus Cavani, three forwards is a good number IMO.
