If we need to sign any one it's whoever does the scouting for Atletico Madrid, that lad's record for finding shit hot strikers is uncanny....

I signed Rondon S.G. in Fifa 14, he's the nuts...

Obviously he's equally good in the real world..

He already said, if Bendtner is out for months then he will think about buying, otherwise...
Please Benny, do us a favour and stay with Diaby for a while.

Costa is not coming, but I would take Mandzukic in a heartbeat. :barscarf:

Mandzukic isn't coming, but I can't for the life of me see why Bayern would sell him. For me he's the most underrated striker in world football and strange as it sounds he's Bayern's only proper out and out striker. Muller could do it but he tends to drift out onto the wing regularly

Anyway, the great man has spoken. No signings unless Barry stays injured in which case Berbatov will be coming as a "stop gap" :barscarf:

Lewandowski is joining them. It's almost 100% certain. So if Mandzukic loses his place, he might want to leave.

You've got to be fucking kidding right? Is this the same Balotelli who did his best to throw City's title away...who got sent off again like a moron at our place.....whose goalkeeper was seen mouthing words of disgust about him again as he allowed his own stupid agenda overtake the need of the team in another big game

The bloke is a fucking first rate retard. He'll produce the odd flash of genius for 150k per week but most of the time will be a useless moody wanker who goes missing or even worse does that something moronic when you most need him

He would also most likely disrupt the dressing room. You could take that risk with a consistently top player like Zlatan but not with this guy. Balotelli is a moron of the highest order.

Jelavic impressed me early in his everton career I have to admit - playing for a club of our stature I think even on top form he isn't good enough but this season, when he couldn't an elephants arse with a banjo, he is nowhere near good enough

If we sign him and Kalou, then the MODs need to get on hand and knee and beg Baba to come back :D

The fireworks will be worth it !
