    Richardson is off to Fulham (presuming his passes medical and agrees personal terms etc). Bid accepted by Sunderland this afternoon.

    Good luck to him, currently our longest serving player and alongside Bardsley the only one left from the Keane era. Excellent left back for us but doesn't like playing there and has wanted to move back to London with his girlfriend for a while now.

    Spurs or Arsenal I'd say. He's average tbh.

    Liverpool were interested too, I understand

    Possible Dempsey replacement?

    Aye, or for Dembele I guess. We should have demanded a straight swap with Dempsey for him :pac:

    Dembele should be a good fit for Spurs and only costs like half of the money they got for Modric .

    Average for Barcelona but I think he'd be good for most other teams.

    What's happening with Javi Martinez? Is he going to Bayern?

    According to latest news from tonight the deal will be finalized tomorrow morning. Martinez will travel to the Spanish FA in Madrid to terminate his contract, and Bayern will lodge a Cheque over 40mil. at the same time at the Spanish FA. That way they will work around the tax and legal implications of the deal that were thrown in by the refusal of the Bilbao president to accept the payment from Bayern directly. Complicated transfer...

    Martinez is having his medical atm. Everything should be sorted tomorrow. Pic from German Sky Sports News of him in Munich.

    Maybe but I just never really liked him. He was certainly rated by quite a few people.

    Julio Cesar to QPR is what BBC are reporting!

    So Dembele meant to be in today and we are meant to be looking at estesban granero. The problem with so many changes is it will take time for everyone to click on the pitch

    I'm happy to go out on a limb and say that AVB will be more Ramos than Harry Rednapp :p

    City linked to Nastasic from Fiorentina in a swap deal that sees Savic go the other way.

    That would be great business. Savic is young but he looks too nervous and doesn't seem to be able to compose himself. Nastasic is a good young defender and is good on the ball. He's very highly rated in Italy too.

    I've got to say I'm impresses with Man city's transfer activity this summer. They seem to be looking for a few younger squad players, while sticking with their solid first team.
    Between them, Chelsea and Man utd this years premier league should be great.

    I'm not tbh.

    Buying Rodwell still baffles me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,991 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Nastasic is done, just waiting on Richard Ashcroft to agree terms with Fiorentina apparently.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,736 ✭✭✭Fowler87


    Much fun at Ajaccio yesterday, with Adrian Mutu finally inking two-year deal & being presented to the media http://t.co/ewz9yVGP -- Andy Brassell (@andybrassell)

    I'd guess he's just a decent squad player who gives them one more home-grown player. I admit he's a bit uninspiring but he could do a good job for them, time will tell I suppose.

    Bit of a panic buy tbh.

    Seems to be huge tension between Mancini and Marwood at the moment. Theie initial policy of putting mediocre players on huge wages is coming back to bite them a little now methinks.

    Alot of interesting theories that at Anfield Mancini went 3 at the back with Toure to make a point that he needs a new centre half.

    Makes "kinda" sense considering it left Lescott out and Clichy , but might be a bit far fetched.

    Some balls on him if so,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,808 ✭✭✭Caveman1


    I actually think Rodwell is a good buy for City, he's being holding his own in the Everton midfield sine he's 18, he's going to be playing alongside world class players now he's only going to improve IMO

    He's been holding his own on the treatment table since he's 18.

    I don't think he even made the Everton first 11 when everybody was fit at the tail end of last season.

    Javi Martinez has passed the medical and is expected to move to Bayern for €40 million. I think he's a class act, but €40 million is a lot of money. I assume Bayern will play him in central midfielder rather than defence.

    looks like a twist...

    BBC Sport chief football writer Phil McNulty on Twitter:
    "Javi Martinez right on Man City's radar this summer - interesting Athletic Bilbao say he did not have permission for Bayern talks or medical."

    Well if he can keep him self fit I think he'll be a success with City
