On Saturday night, sources close to Lampard denied that a deal with #NYCFC had already been agreed, while #CFC declined to comment. (Mail)

Of course I'm exaggerating, I'm not actually meaning he's a City player.

But he's helping strengthen the Manchester City brand by signing for them. I'd have preferred it if he went for LA Galaxy, that's all I'm saying.

That's umm...dumb?

So basically Lamps is only negotiating joining them in 2015. I knew there was something wrong with the reports of him leaving immediately.

Yeah same with David Villa. Reports say he'll train with Man City in the meantime. Lampard will probably do the same with us

Fucking 'Mirror' gave me a heart-attack.

And it's not that he was a mere squad player last season. He had 40 appearances, scored 8 goals, 7 assists. Not too bad stats for a a 35 year old playing in DM. At least better than paulinho. I am sure he will have a role to play, if he stays.

Nyfc is man city.

Correction..Nyfc share the same owners..its not like he's pulling on their sky blue jersey, although if it makes you happy there are rumors about him playing for City for a few months before heading to the US

Most of his appearances were in the first leg of the season, but he was dropped in the 2nd leg, when Mourinho realized he was far from a good player in the pivot. He ended the season behind Luiz in the picking order to play in the mid. Imo in he ended the season as a mere squad player.

Atletico Madrid striker David Villa would train with Premier League champions Manchester City until February if he signs with New York City FC, according to Spanish newspaper El Pais.

Sad the English media are trying to put it like he is signing for City.

[zolayes 14,489]

time for a clean break I think. Otherwise the transition just drags on.

I'd give him half a season give him a proper send off. He's going to the World Cup as England vice-captain after all, he's not quite on the scrap heap yet. When you see who's interested in him and Cole, it makes the decision to part company look even more questionable.

"An alternative would be to join Harry Redknapp at newly promoted Queens Park Rangers on a similar half-season arrangement."

I must admit I'm disappointed, I expected by now at least one media outlet to say that the real reason Frank has rejected a contract renewal is because of the imminent arrival of Fabregas...

Give it time, I'm sure that's exactly what the Daily Mail is about to write up

[quickpassnmove 924]

get it over with. move on. no more. don't need him next season; CFC need to move on.

only reason he gets in England this year is his outlook/experience, leadership, and for someone who can knock a goal in with 10-15 minutes left as a sub. But Paul Scholes is correct on the England squad: none of them can play the Gerrard role if Steven gets hurt, so why was it not Carrick instead of Lampard in there? Guess it would be Henderson.
