City

Now we just need Spurz (fat chance) and the Super Foxes to do us a favour to make it the perfect weekend.

by Kick Sun Aug 31, 2014 1:46 am

Well, we only really need Spurs to drop points since we're already ahead of the rest.

by Shed Sun Aug 31, 2014 1:47 am

I'm thinking long-term Clubber

Liverpool and Arsenal are whom we need to be dropping points, regardless of who's close to us in the table at this particular moment.

by Kick Sun Aug 31, 2014 1:49 am

Fair enough.

by Shed Sun Aug 31, 2014 1:55 am

Slightly concerned about the Falcao to City rumours...

by Kick Sun Aug 31, 2014 1:56 am

I don't see how that works, at all.

by Shed Sun Aug 31, 2014 1:57 am

Nor do I but it won't stop them from taking him if he's available.

by Kick Sun Aug 31, 2014 1:58 am

Time to bid for Dezko? Wink

by Shed Sun Aug 31, 2014 2:00 am

The same Dzeko who signed a new 4-year deal like a week ago?

by Kick Sun Aug 31, 2014 2:07 am

Better bid for AgueroooOOOOOooOOOoOOOOoOoOOOoOO then Proud

by Shed Sun Aug 31, 2014 2:11 am

Should have been the ones who signed him in the first place.

We've Torrwretch to thank that we didn't.

by Kick Sun Aug 31, 2014 2:12 am

Sadly, yes.

by Shed Sun Aug 31, 2014 3:25 pm

Another big game, another Spurs dicking.

3-0 v Liverpool.

Great results for us.

If we beat Swansea on the next matchday, we'll be the only team on full points Thumbs up

This deal is looking very much on. Unfortunately.

by Kick Sun Aug 31, 2014 11:31 pm

Crazy tbh.

by Shed Sun Aug 31, 2014 11:33 pm

It's bound to come up sooner or later, so – any theories why at that price and in our situation we weren't in for him?

by Kick Sun Aug 31, 2014 11:41 pm

Because he is 28 Years old, just come back from a long term injury he sustained during a, by all accounts, poor season in the physical league.
Diego Costa is younger and more likely to excel in a physical league than Falcao + was almost half the price.

Also, why would we spend 55m on a player who could just end up playing back up to Costa?

by Kick Sun Aug 31, 2014 11:44 pm

I just read some comments by some Arsenal fans, complaining about Sanogo playing for Arsenal, after I saw comments complaining about the lack of game time Sanogo was getting for Arsenal Laughing

by Shed Sun Aug 31, 2014 11:45 pm

I'm not saying instead of Costa, I'm saying in addition to.

You can say there'll be issues of the starting spot, but fierce competition is hardly a bad thing (see Cech-Courtois), and surely Falcao would have been a better addition than Remy? It's not like money is a problem.
