rfc_no1fan 13 Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Manchester City have released Geovanni, Emile Mpenza and Paul Dickov. Brazilian midfielder Geovanni's one-year deal had come to an end this summer and the 27-year-old appears set for a move to Hull City. Striker Dickov, 35, had loan spells with Crystal Palace and Blackpool last season, while fellow forward Mpenza, 30, leaves after 16 months at the club. Sun Jihai was also not retained by City and he has already signed for Championship side Sheffield United. 606: DEBATE What do you make of City letting these players go? City have also released former Inter Milan manager Roberto Mancini's son, Filippo, who was one of six academy players released in an overall list of 10 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dickov anyone?

J-Maestro 14,075 Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 I love how our signings are pish but were willing to take Mpenza and Geovanni who have one decent game in five and have the work rate of Cousin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
