City Can't Buy Silverware - DaleDaManc - 20-01-2010
Few people said to me today Manchester City are going to buy the players to win the league..Made me laugh this because there not!!! there trying to buy Mutu???For what with tevez,Bellamy,Adaboyor,Santa Curz why do they want that coke sniffing twat??
Flamini is a other player on there radar now last night i taught there centre midfeild sat back quite well and he wouldn't suit there play!There waisting there money now! You dont need 4+ strikers that need to start week in week out thats causes trouble in the dressing room like what happend with Tevez last year for example but being honest i'm glad he is gone the RAT!!!
City are going to get hammerd against US in OT and scholes has to start to break the money grappers two legs!!!!

Not only can they not buy silverware, it seems that their new-found wealth has made them so arrogant that they feel they can ride roughshod over everyone! They seemingly messed up big time in the transfer window, assuming players would fall over themselves to go to middle eastlands and that clubs would bow to their bottomless pit of cash. Not so, it seems:
Fernando Gago's agent has hit out at Manchester City over their handling of their bid for the player.
City lodged a bid for Gago last week and the player appeared confident of sealing a move.
But Eastlands chief Roberto Manciniseemingly preferred to sign Kenyan star McDonald Mariga and City agreed terms with Parma.
However, he was refused a work permit and subsequently joined Inter Milan.
That left City with few other options, and they tried to salvage a deal late on Monday for Gago - but there was not enough time to seal the transfer.
And the Argentine star has been left far from happy with the Premier League club.
"City used us," Gago's agent Marcello Lombillatold radio station Onda Cero.
"This has never happened to me before.
"I don't want to talk about the figures that City were offering because they approached Madrid without even knowing there wasn't physically enough time to put something together."
Real's sporting director Jorge Valdano was equally unimpressed with City's attempts.
"They had nothing prepared, not even one document signed," Valdano told El Pais.
"They had not reached an agreement with the player and they would have had to have done everything in 40 minutes."
Lombilla insists that Gago will now concentrate on getting his Real career back on track.
"Despite the fact he went from being 'untransferable' to suddenly 'for sale', he will always continue to work hard," he stated.

I tell you, they are great entertainment, aren't they? Along with Rafa at the dippers, they manage to keep us all smiling. Oh, and they ended up with Johnson from Middlesbrough, who are, of course, in the Championship! Big name signing, eh?

I had a little look around the blue forums last night. it seems that the Hull defeat was down to Mancini's scarf! You couldn't make it up! They are calling for him to ditch it, as he's lost as many games as Sparky, in less time! If it is the scarf, let's have a whip round and buy him a lorry load!
RE: City Can't Buy Silverware - Vazza - 19-02-2010
Viera played 1 match and banned for 3 matches XD
Vieira, accepted a charge of violent conduct and has been banned for three matches after kicking Stoke City's Glenn Whelan in the groin.
RE: City Can't Buy Silverware - Noucamp99 - 19-02-2010
LMAO!! Dirty player. I'll say it again. We should re-sign Keano just to get at Viera!
RE: City Can't Buy Silverware - Vazza - 19-02-2010

THE SUN
Roberto Mancini has been involved in an astonishing bust-up with Craig Bellamy. It ended with Manchester City's boss screaming at the player: Get out - and don't come back for three month
