The Manchester City FC Thread

Very good chance of being #2 after Saturday. Playing West Ham!

Aren't you a West Ham fan?

I followed West Ham when Tevez was there.

Is that a serious comment?

Is that a serious comment?

Yup. I am a Tevez fan. He was the reason I watched West Ham (him single handidly saving them from relegation was one of the most underated moments in premier league football history).

He went to City and so did I. Now as a United hater I think I will stick with City after he leaves the Premier league.

Tevez to quit City in January

Tevez says his relationship with "certain executives and individuals" at the club "has broken down beyond repair". Tevez stressed he has "no personal issue" with manager Roberto Mancini and thanked owner Sheikh Mansour for his "understanding and support".

I don't place much stock in this, but the commentators during the Barcelona game mentioned Tevez as a possibility for Barca. Had no clue it was even a possibility until now. I'm sure Messi would like it.

 

[CaptTurbo]

Tevez threatens to quit every second week. He is still here and still scoring.

BTW tied for #1 atm!

Everyone said Man City had no defense. I dont think anyone has given up less goals.

City rejects transfer

http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=852321&sec=transfers&cc=5901

 

[Shzm13]

Just wants to be closer to his family. Let him go.

 

[CaptTurbo]

Want-away Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez has returned to the club's Carrington training ground after having his transfer request rejected.

Tevez is unlikely to travel to Turin with the squad ahead of Thursday's Europa League match against Juventus, although manager Roberto Mancini apparently made that decision before the weekend, knowing the game was a dead rubber.

With Tevez suspended for last Saturday's match against West Ham United the unsettled Argentinian international was granted leave by Mancini to spend some time with his family.

City signs Assulin from Barca!

 

[Mulli]

swd1974 is a dead rubber.

 

[CaptTurbo]

Hey everyone thought (including me) City would be all offense with no defense. I think they are either #1 or #2 in fewest goals allowed. Surprisingly.

Sorry, I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing.

Im guessing it is the 2nd meeting of two matches and the outcome doesnt change anything as far as the standings or whatever.

Im guessing!

Balotelli: 'I don't know who Wilshere is'

Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli claimed he has never heard of Arsenal starlet Jack Wilshere when picking up the Tuttosport Golden Boy trophy on Tuesday.

"I don't know who Wilshere is but the next time I play against Arsenal I will keep a close eye on him.

"Perhaps I can show him (Wilshere) the Golden Boy trophy and remind him that I won it!"

Balotelli: 'I don't know who Wilshere is'

Hey, I don't either.

 

[CaptTurbo]

awful game. Even had a man advatage at 61 minutes and it took an everton own goal to score.

 

[Shzm13]

Don't let Chaplin hear ya. All the Arsenal fans think hes the greatest player ever.

 

[Chaplin]

I don't know why you want to start a fight with me, but here it is:

Jack Wilshire is a good player and a possible future star. Right now though, he's probably our #3 or #4 midfielder, behind Nasri, Fabregas and Rosicky.

So while I appreciate the shout out, don't put words in my mouth.
