alstone 374 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 He wont go!! One of the best players in the world still at his prime, why would he go to a team of man city's size? 15th or something in premiership, no chance of champions league football any time soon and the teams got fuck all strength in depth just two world class players and the rest average premiership players. they will still be an average team, one man cant carry them to glory. dream on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bearsrus 12 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 nothing less than obscene, all the jobs being lost, economical meltdown, and these cunts are throwing the budget of a third world nation at a single player, it's fucking sickening, and i hope man city get relegated.

They'll be eyeing the Champions League qualification next season and giving winning it a right good go the season after that. He'll be given guarantees about ambitious squad recruitment, and who are we to doubt them? They've spent £140m on two players, I'd say that's a fairly substantial statement of intent! It'll all be worth fuck all if they can't build a coherent team mind. On one hand you've got Bruce's signings - he's clearly been given a kitty to go for people he wants - like Bellamy and Santa Cruz - while the club owners are off on their own bringing in guys like Kaka and Robinho! Crazy stuff. Steve Bruce still looks like granny though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be right, chelsea werent exactly a contender when the big money got pumped in so you never know. i think they'd be better off building a good solid squad and making a few 10 million pound signings of good quality players that could be capable of at least a uefa place in the premiership and then start going for the bigger stars. Being in the situation theyre in right now and blowing that much money on one player is bloody ignorant. However if kaka goes then other big names may be attracted so you never know. i just cant see kaka in a man city strip any time soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMWWBK 0 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Has anyone actually thought of Kaka during these shenanigans? As far as experience goes, Kaka has been there and done it, however, i doubt there's one single player in the history of football who could 'just get on with it' when a price tag like that hangs over their head. Even Zidane admitted to feeling pressure under his price tag when he first signed for Madrid, but in the end he was just special. It's crazy, in fact, to call £107M crazy is an understatement. It's just horrible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muff 245 Posted January 15, 2009 Author Share Posted January 15, 2009 Kaka has been authorised to speak to Manchester City. £107m for Kaka + £31m for agent fees = £138m for Kaka. Absolutely ridiculous! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amac9 2,060 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Football has gone crazy.

bluenose_72 198 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 TBH I'll be happy either way - if he stays then good, hopefully he can regain the consistency he showed a couple seasons ago but if he goes then Milan will receive an insane amount of money for him and will be able to begin rebuilding with no excuses. And with Yohann Gourcuff excelling at Bordeaux, Milan will believe they have a ready made replacement for Kaka, so they may be tempted to accept the bid.
