talk of mancini leaving city if they don't win the premiersh ......

crosses all fingers and toes that mourhino doesn't go there

would be great if thats the case.. findings show that approach works wonders for chelsea

In fact, Arsenal stand to gain substantially after finishing in the top four every Premier League season under Wenger despite only spending **a net £4.2 million on players **since 96/97, compared to a net spend of £250 million for United, £473m for City and £504m for Chelsea during the same period.

Wow Chelsea spent more than City
at least they don't have to worry about fincancial fair play as they aren't in European Cup next year ... unless they win this years, or does it go down to the UEFA Cup ?

chelsea's balance sheet will be even more down the crapper after their £50mn AVB debacle in the last 12 months
.... another " exceptional expense "
plus no European Cup revenue next season
let hope abramovich makes some decent dividends from the companies he owns to pay for all of this

FFS - how many times?! Abramovich doesn't give a toss how much Chelsea loses financially. He pays for Chelsea with the cash he finds down the back of the sofa.

Sweet, Galicia boasts one of the finest white wines in the world, Albariño... Much better than that pikey, Portuguese muck...

There will be much trolling and Benfica fan baiting at O Cantinho... Can't wait...

Albariño is indeed very lovely. Not as refreshing as a Rueda, but lovely nonetheless.

yes yes yes .... hush now

i'm trying to wind clive up
don't spoil it

hmmm. There are one or two.

I see The Sun have decided Mourinho will be managing City next season

Don't read that rag Mike

The Sun? Always guaranteed to be a reliable source of information.

Yet more PlasticWhopperKopite deflection tactics? Sweet Jesus!

Still fancy a nice Rueda - despite the deflection tactics.

"In Brazil, when they talk about Chelsea, they do talk about them being in the same level and class as Barcelona and Real," the South American said.

They smoke some weird shit in Brazil

Zlatan Ibrahimovic now talking of UEFA conspiracy over their defeat to Barca

Funny isn't that any team getting beaten by Barca thinks there are other manevolent forces at play
Maybe you just didn't play well enough ?

why do football players find it so hard to " settle " in manchester

and before anyone says it i am not refering to the settle of settle - carlisle railway fame

I was successful in the ballot, I'm going to Wembley next Saturday

Everyone has a cross to bear.

Indeed, now I have one I'm rather nervous about the whole potential clusterfuck...

well you'll be there if you are lucky come may
don't knock it

Not necessarily, but obviously i've got a much better chance now I'll have this credit as well

ooops sorry clever p. my comment was aimed at b&d seeing how west ham won't be finishing in the automatics now
they'll have a lovely play off day at wembley and another season in the 2nd division next year !

i wouldn't be so presumptous as to think we'll get by everton

Even though it is more likely that Everton will win, miracles can, and do, happen (occasionally).

£42 mill in hiring and firing.. and i can't see anyone with any sense walking in there without a massive pay check, handshake parachute and golden pants, golden coat, golden pitch side seat and golden goose..

I really want to see city go the same way... the curse of attracting the "best" managers

arson, violence, pissed up nights, tracksuits, ignorance, poor grasp of english.. in fact i would go so far as nicknaming Balotelli "Snowy"

i think you forgot ..... the cold / the rain / the sleet / the grey skies / fat ugly english lasses / the piss weak english beer that smells of eggs ....... or maybe they just want more than the £200K per week they are currently on or am i just being synical
