The Shopping List—aka We've got flipping great wadges of cash

Captain

Imagine it will depend on their moves this summer. Rumours point to Kaka, Higuain and Sahin being available, so you would assume they'll make at least two biggish signings.

Kel Varnsen

i think sahin is one of those players that has a huge potential, but needs a bit of time and trust to really take the final step. he is a magnificent footballer, but doubtful if real madrid is the right place for him.

Any 2 of those for RVP straight swap?

Get drogba!!

Ray

why not get drogba, give him the two years he wants (that chelsea wont offer) and tell him he will be backup for van persie and occasionally starting with him, cant go wrong, as long as he keeps his wage demands within decent proportions.

flobaba

There's no way Chelsea won't offer him the two year contract he wants after his performance during the CL final.

My guess is he's off to Anzhi Mchchchallalal or Qatar, or some other cash rich club/country for his retirement payday.

Isn't he off to China?

Wouldn't mind Van Persie going to City for two of Johnson, Richards & Dzeko.

Rex

Not a good deal for us IMO, at least not in the short term.

There is no way we could afford Drogba btw, especially not as a back up.

Captain

It's a good deal if he is going anyway. Although all of those players would instantly be our top earners going by rumoured amounts. 😆

Captain

I'd take Balotelli and £15m.

asajoseph

I thought about putting Mario on my 'list' and decided not to, just because he's just so fricking unreliable. It's all very well having a mentalist like him around if you've got Aguero and Tevez around to pick up the pieces when Balotelli loses his shit, but pretty sure we won't have that kind of luxury.

I'd be more inclined to take Tevez.

Rex

I´d take Dzeko over both Balotelli and Tevez. Not because he is a better footballer, but because he isn´t a headcase.

If RvP goes, get Drogba, bring back Henry and let them rotate/compete for the CF role. genius!

We can't afford any City player's wages that interests us. Madrid player's wages are fair bit lower

Rex

You base that on what exactly? I´d be surprised if not at least Kaka and Higuain were on wages quite a bit higher than what we would want to offer.

Ray

Thought its common knowledge City offer higher wages than normal to attract players to their club who don't have tradition or trophies.
