Goodbye Delph, we probably wont be seeing you again for a while. How many English players do Man City have? Don't you need a certain amount for the squad registrations?

Christ looks like we're actually signing Schweinsteiger.

I'd love Schweinsteiger, but I honestly can't see it happening tbh.

Really don't see what he'd add to us.

Well i'm guessing you're an Arsenal fan as have actually no idea with the name change.

EDIT: Just realised who you are now.

Sorry man!!

He wouldn't add much to the Arsenal midfield I agree.

On the topic of players who won't be playing at their new club - why is Begovic going to Chelsea? He's a solid, top-half PL keeper who's now just going to be sat on the bench every league game.

Same reason most second choice keepers join bigger clubs. To challenge for a position, but to also hopefully win a few things in the process that they'd probably not get the opportunity at otherwise. Begovic is still young enough to commit a season or two as a second choice, possibly win a couple of things in the process, and then move on back to a lesser side (more than likely) and play regularly once again. As a keeper, he's still young enough with plenty of football ahead of him.

He's pretty much moving for more money.

They've already signed Eto'o and are also talking with Ronaldinho.

Nicking two players that Roma wanted. If FM is to be believed Mitrovic is actually a Newcastle supporter.

No room for Cabaye at Roma with DDR, Pjanic, Strootman, Radja etc but yep, a number 9 would be nice - although I've still got hopes that Doumbia will come good.

Also, El Shaarawy is off to Monaco.

Wow I really never thought it would. Exactly what we need and should get at least 3 good seasons out of him, great signing. Though I wouldn't mind us still going for Schneiderlin as a longer term option.

He always seemed he was gonna play for United at some point. That being said I'm not overly concerned, if it was 2/3 years ago I'd be shitting it.

Apparently Schneiderlin isn't in the squad for Southampton's match against Valencia today.

I would love both of them.

You don't need any English players whatsoever. If you want a 25-man squad then you need 8 home-grown players. City probably aren't going to have a 25-man squad (and they're probably going to be using a few U-21s too) so they won't need 8 home-grown players.

Dunno why the last minute change, he'd have to have been deluded to think he would've been a starter.

A player choosing to actually play football rather than sit on a bench?!

Hope the Gueye money wasn't coming from this transfer.

Schweinsteiger deal done subject to a medical and personal terms.

No, dickhead. Somebody deciding to back out of a transfer at the last minute despite everything (apparently) being agreed and completed apart from a medical, that's a little odd.

It's going to be interesting to hear what caused the change of heart.

Signing Schweinsteiger on the day Delph rejects City is fairly amusing.

Get in Schneiderlin, Otamendi and sort out the De Gea situation and we've had a great summer. A striker too maybe.

Certainly think we need a striker.

Rooney will get 15-20 in the Premier League if he plays up top and James Wilson could get a good few, but an injury to either and we're fucked. I'm also afraid Van Gaal sees Fellaini as a backup striker.
