we can forget 3rd derek. arsenal have an easy run in so no hope of catching them.

if we dont get in the CL, u would expect modric to go for sure.
we promised to let him go if we didnt make it into the CL last summer. chelsea,utd & city would all take him.

bale, i really cant see who can afford him bar city. but not really sure they want him. barca want him at LB to take over from abidal but again, they cant afford him.

chelsea after arry is a load of made up rubbish.
just like hazard coming to spurs!

is Gomes still doing nothing and collecting a wage?
haven't heard any talk of him leaving but surely we can pull in 5-6 million from some foreign team for him!
get whatever we can for Jenas, Bentley (just take the loss on him) and Pienaar..and spend it on one decent player, it's not like their even squad members

Be interesting to know what Citeh's wage bill is as FIFA's fair play is an attempt to stop this sort of thing. OK, if a club earns £100m from footie, then they can spend that, so it doesn't stop 'big club'::'small club' altogether (especially given how much the CL pays compared to domestic competitions), but at least it means a club can't spend more than it's earning and rely upon the funds provided by a benefactor.

From http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2066802/Man-City-squad-sale-Mancini-forced-cut-20-players.html
'....City have 63 players on their books at present and are hoping to streamline that to around 40 over the next two transfer windows.

Results for the 2010-11 financial year, City's wage bill was £174million, £21m higher than turnover while Under FFP rules state that clubs are not allowed to post losses more than £39.5m over the three years in which it is assessed.

Maybe offering Ade, De Jong and Johnson in exchange cuts their wage bill by the amount they're allegedly offering for Bale - so for them it's a nett break even on wages.

iv always thought he was a decent player.

as far sessegnon in vdvs role, well im not a big fan of having a player in that role in our team. it isolates the loan striker far too much.

If we do get to keep Ade, how do we pay him? I understand City have been paying while on loan, because he's on wages that only city can afford. Much as like him, I wouldn't like Spurs to have that millstone!
