Hard to say for certain but it shouldn't given we've (sort of) sold Negredo for £24m and loaned Nastasic out for a fee and with his wages paid.

The fuck are you on about, KL? Are we not going to be in the Champions League next season? Do you seriously think he can't get in front of Dzeko (chronically underwhelming) and Jovetic (who's not actually a striker) or that he'll flop badly enough that he's moved on after next season? We've kept Dzeko for four years ffs.

Well of course you will but you'll also sign more players in the summer no doubt and you'll also be required to have the full quota of home-grown players again so he could quite easily be left out in order to accommodate either the new signings or those home grown players

Man City sign Bony for £25million, potentially rising to £28million.

Be interesting to see if he is able to meet the potential, and also if it fucks up Man City's FFP even more.

I guess but missing six months of the campaign with injury is not nice to see, particularly the injuries he got.

Still annoyed he looked better at CB against us than of our CB's have for most of the season.

Just brought this up in the transfer thread, seems mental on all accounts. Bony's saying he's excited to play in the CL but that could only be for 2 games at a push and even then City are going to have to remove a player from their squad, also could see him being moved on next season or becoming even more of a bit part player.

Did anyone listen to the Football Ramble this week, one of them mentioned City might be about to be investigated for holding companies with massive loses being used to get around FFP

Anyone know quite how City are getting away with spending 28 million on a player with regards to FFP?

He was terrible against Leicester as well and scored both goals, of course though you get people coming along saying we shouldn't be letting him go but it's the right time for it, and he'll more than likely be back on loan next season anyway

I get the impression that alot of Newcastle fans won't be happy regardless of who they get, in many ways they're like Liverpool in thinking the club should always be doing better than is realistic.

Apparently Coloccini hasn't taken UEFA coaching licenses, nevermind the Pro License Premier League managers must have on general principle.

I don't think appointing him is a good idea, but daft ideas like that appear to the normal at St. James'.

Gigg's didn't have his either last year did he?

Its Madrid...

Yeah it was a gradual process beginning months before he left you.

He's absolutely shot. People were saying that Milan would be a good move for him to go out there, get away from Chelsea and score some goals but he can't even do that, and now we're talking about a situation where they want to end a two year loan deal less than 6 months into it.

He'd scored 9 goals in 22 league games before he joined Chelsea, not exactly a terrible return given how poorly we were doing in the league

Would like to see Torres back, he didn't become a bad player overnight when he left us. Would work well with Sterling as well and he'd be the focal point up top which he never really was at Chelsea

Not as clear cut as Neville makes out though was going backwards towards Debuchy, should have done better but as terrible as GN made out

Toure and Sakho getting in each others way was more of a problem
