Man City next season...

[Ankit 3,176]

I'm very excited about City signing Navas. How epic would it be to see Moses vs Jesus on the left flank when we play them next season!

Then there is another one. MOHAMED diame!

[Ankit 3,176]

At the moment, you'd have to say City are favourites for the title. We def need some top signings to eclipse them. I rate Pellegrini very high but he'll need the support of the players to be successful, which I'm sure he'll get cause their embarrassing displays in the UCL must have humbled some of the large egos. City are getting scary.

Way too early for that. I have always felt that City revolves around Yaya Toure. Remove him friom the team and this team looks toothless. It will be interesting to see how pellegrini uses him. Will the city players adapt to his new style early in the league before it's too late?

Isn't Navas like majorly prone to homesickness?.. Didn't that stop him signing in '06?

used to have panic attacks even on training camps but apparently his therapist has helped him get over it.

I think they have a better team then us as of now. I think it's between us and them and I think if they spend heavily and we spend heavily then it'll be close. United will come 5th and Liverpool will get relegated hopefully.

We’re afraid of no-one ‘cos we’re better than them all
Arsenal West Ham Palace Tottenham and Millwall
Take a trip to SW6 and surely you’ll agree
We’re called the Pride Of London ‘cos the Chelsea are supreme!

Fuck 'em all, fuck 'em all
Man U, City, Arse and Liverpool
'Cause we are the Chelsea
And we are the best
We are the Chelsea so fuck all the rest! :cfc:

They may have better individuals, but they definitely don't have a better team.

On paper they were already the best team in EPL, but take a look at the table. I really don't care who they are going to buy as far as we get who we want. It's a 11 players game, they can't field more than that can they. We scare no one! Especially Mourinho in helm!

[Term-X 7,891]

Are we really going to let them sign Cavani?..

With Falcao done and dusted.. we are running out of 'finished articles'. Unless Mourinho really does wanna give Lukaku a chance.

They'll get Cavani if he leaves Napoli and nothing will be able to stop them. We have to just accept that they have more resources then us, Roman can't compete with those Arabs they have a whole freaking government behind them. I was in UAE in 2010 and they see investments like Man city as being the global eye catcher for the nation so even if resources start to dwindle people will always call stadiums like Man city and Arsenal the Etihad and the Emirates stadium and that will always play on people's minds were to go for a holiday and shopping. They see these investments as an economic driver for foreign exchange money.... They are on a different planet.... So winning things is a priority and no matter how much a player might cost they'll get get him if it mean's title or no title. We have a different owner with a different goal.. for Roman its just a bit of a laugh and something to enjoy that's nothing compared to an economic goal.

I've always liked Navas, would've been nice to see him play for Chelsea but having him in the Premier League will do, even if it's for a rival

Yes they have more financial power but football isn't just about money. By your logic City should've blown us out of the water for Hazard then.

If we come in and rival City's bid (which I'm sure we can if we really wanted to) and offer him decent wages and Jose sells him the dream of playing for CFC and the project we're trying to fulfil then it's more than viable.

[Krypt 241]

Hazard chose us because we had a better "project" apparently.

If City do get all the players they desire it will be hard to stop them. But the manager will have a headache keeping Tevez , Aguero , Cavani and Dzeko(i see him staying) happy if they do indeed play only one striker.

There are a limited of world class strikers nowadays which we can go for we need a Dider Drogba type signing or put our faith Lukaku.

City, PSG and now Monaco have all copied our blueprint for on-field & commercial success, the later pioneered by Kenyon at United. The sheikhs are not doing anything 'extraordinarily' different from what we've already done in that aspect.

I'd rather have Roman at the helm, and it's 'because' he isn't looking for a return, he's a football fan, it’s his legacy, Roman loves the club, which lasts longer than economic motives. If the City 'project' eventually dwindles will it matter for the UAE?, they have fingers in multiple pies, the MLS and PSG etc.

[Pizy 18,858]

So it looks done and dusted with Fernandinho going there too.

City already dominated us in midfield with Yaya alone and now they're bringing in another player who dominated us in the CL last season to partner him.

*sigh*

And on top of these signings of Navas and Fernandinho they'll be signing a striker.

Jose and the board have a lot of work to do with signings.

I kinda miss your old avatar. It had become iconic.

On topic : Fuck City.
