If he maintains his form from this year, he'll be a bargain.

Obviously if he doesn't, he will instead be a fat, useless, waste of money. Much like Andy Carroll.

Good points about the face-gen, it is annoying that you get so many 35 year-olds who look 15.

Historic Leagues aren't going to happen, though. It'd be way too much work to do it, let alone to do it accurately.

Patrick Vieira has been announced as the new manager of the EDS.

Manchester City Football Club is delighted to announce Patrick Vieira as the new Head of the Elite Development Squad, a position he will take up on 1 June, following two years in the role as City’s Football Development Executive.

The Elite Development Squad currently play in the Under 21 Premier League and from 2014 will be based at the City Football Academy, City’s groundbreaking training ground development, which is currently under construction on an 80 acre site adjacent to the Etihad Stadium.

Vieira’s illustrious playing career includes the winning of five FA Cups and nine league titles. His 107 caps for France include winning performances in the 1998 FIFA World Cup and 2000 UEFA European Championships. His time as a Manchester City player, which began in January 2010, concluded with the winning of the FA Cup Final in May 2011, the Club’s first silverware in 35 years.

During his two years in his current role, the Club has supported Patrick in his coaching development which resulting in him securing his UEFA B coaching licence last year, an achievement on which he continues to build as he works to secure his UEFA A licence.

Patrick Vieira said: “After spending two years working across a number of areas of the Club and with a particular focus on the Youth Academy, I feel honoured and privileged to have been offered this role. This marks a new chapter both in my career and in my life and I am looking forward to it immensely. My passion for the development of young talent has only grown in my time at City and I am pleased to be able to play my part in helping to shape the footballing future for Manchester City.”

Ferran Soriano said: “Patrick is a world champion and it is a great honour that he has chosen Manchester City to begin his football management career. I have seen him carefully considering options and choosing to coach for the best reasons; he has a love of the game and a willingness to continue to learn and transmit his knowledge and experience to young footballers.”

“Patrick’s role is of the highest long term importance for the Club. The ability of the Academy, the Elite Development Squad and the First team to work together using the same football concepts is key to our success and sustainability.”

Manchester City would like to offer their best wishes to Attilio Lombardo, who stepped down from this role, and to thank him for his work with the EDS over the last year.

Is Rooney seriously on £250k p/w?

I'm not 100% sure tbh, I've seen estimates between £180-£250k but both the Times and the Guardian seem to favour the higher end of those estimates. Either way, he's not worth what he's being paid.

Yeah we've scored about 30 goals less (in the league) than we did last year. I think Aguero's goal today, was only his 12th.

Who do you think would be a better choice?

I'm not really sure, to be honest. I just assume that there are probably players available who would offer more value for money. I've seen Kevin Strootman linked to United for a couple of years now.

By Ninja | Permalink | On 14 May 2013 - 17:51 PM

Yeah, I kind of get if people don't want Fellaini because they think there's a better cheaper option available and I'm not sure if he's necessarily the best value for money option available but far too many people don't want him because of the type of player he is. It's bizarre.

Baring in mind Phil bloody Jones has been our first choice midfielder at times, you'd have thought Fellaini would have been seen as a blessing by everyone.

Exactly. It's bewildering.

Yeah, I'd welcome him with open arms.

There's a lot of United fans that really don't want him though, I can't understand it.

I can't understand that either. He's exactly the sort of central-midfielder United need. You have a deep-lying playmaker in Michael Carrick, you have a more advanced playmaker in Shinji Kagawa, you have a jack of all trades in Tom Cleverly and you have a fat bastard in Anderson.

What you don't have is a physical, combative midfielder who can break up play and/or go box-to-box. He may not be the best choice but he's the most logical.

No, Dzeko has to go to Dortmund, I won't be able to afford flying to Monaco

Well the good news is, apparently they're more interested in Tevez than Dzeko.

Any pay-off was capped at a year's pay (£7m) and they've probably been negotiating on that.

By Pippadoc | Permalink | On 13 May 2013 - 22:38 PM

If you're in the third pot, I think you'll be in the group of death regardless just because you should easily be the strongest team in pot 3. But obviously, I don't think anyone expects you to perform as badly as this year - even if you were drawn in the exact same group.

Yeah, we are almost guaranteed to end up in a stronger group than most Pot 3 teams, but I'll be surprised (and angry) if we end up in the toughest group for the third year on the trot.
