 Just throw our spare players at them...Aurelio, Degen, Shelvey, Kyrgiakos, Poulsen. They can have all of them.

			    danroan Dan Roan City deny Gazetto report that £31m deal agreed for Sneijder - senior official says "nothing in it" - Sir Alex can return to his cornflakes
 
 rorysmith_tel Rory Smith
 As reported elsewhere - some of us were watching Saturday Kitchen - City say Sneijder reports are without foundation. Stand down. #mcfc

			    At the moment it does seem to be a bit of bullshit. 
 For some reason, I want it to be true. The derby has been heated in recent years, this would only add to it.

The last two windows you didn't spend that much at all. Tbh I wouldn't take much credence in any fee bandied about. I've seen fees from 7m upfront rising to 12 with add ons to 15m. I highly dougbt it's 15m because Wenger wouldn't go that close to our transfer record on a 17 year old. I get the feeling it'll be 7m rising to 12 with add ons, but of course people will say it's 12m and use it as another way to try and criticise Wenger.

			    Don't try to make this sound like everyone is out to get Wenger alone. It happens with every club. We signed Henderson for 16m but it's quoted as 20, the Mancs got Jones for 17 (I think) but everyone calls it 20. Everyone tries to exaggerate to make it look worse.

			    But people don't use that 16 rising to 20 for Henderson as a stick to beat Kenny with and the same for Jones with Fergie, but people will do it with Wenger.

Everyone was harping on about how we are overspending and the club is stupid etc for spending big fees. The situation is no different.

			    Also a big fucking LOL at Alan Pardew. Pardew in 2006 wrote:It's important that clubs don't lose sight of the fact that it's the English Premier League and English players should be involved. Pardew in 2006 wrote:Foreign players have been fantastic. We have learned from them and from foreign coaches. But, to some extent, we could lose the soul of British football - the English player. That's the same Alan Pardew who's signed Yohan Cabaye, Demba Ba, Sylvain Marvaeux and now Gabriel Obertan. As well as wanting to sign Dutch LB Erik Pieters.:lol:

			    Lots of signings overnight. As well as Obertan to Newcastle, West Brom have signed Shane Long, Matthew Upson has gone to Stoke, Blackburn have snapped up Radosav Petrovic of Partizan, and finally James McClean has been signed by Sunderland from Derry City.
