Maybe. But Yakubu is a bargain for whoever gets him thats a fact. Man City linked with a move for Wesley Sneijder from Inter Milan. Could Tevez be a part of that deal ? Man Utd and Sunderland linked with a move for Adam Johnson from Man City. Both Manchester clubs linked with Papiss Cisse from Newcastle. from various media news sources.
I think that Hulk will be used more for CL games next season. Torres will get the domestic starts i would suggest. Then again a combo of MATA TORRES HULK HAZARD LAMPARD looks pretty impressive to me.
First of all, Hulk isn't a striker. Second, I don't see them spending £40m on someone who has been pursued for years, only to dump him on the bench. Still, two of Hulk, Hazard and Mata would be difficult, although the latter two are now primarily considered CAMs. An absolutely insane front four though: Hulk Mata Hazard Torres (Edit) Bloody hell, they've got Marin coming in too haven't they!?
I see another Hodgson coming. Wrong decision from Rodgers I reckon, although let's face it, what would 95% of us have done in his shoes?
First of all I did not say Hulk was a striker did i. ? 2nd, They spent more on Torres and sat him on the bench 3rd, News today of Lampards injury. Depending on how bad it is Lamps could be weeks or months out of the game. But you are correct in one thing. Chelsea already have an insane attacking formation. Just need Pep Guadiola in as manager now. Lol.
I think Kagawa to United is a very astute move, one year left on his deal, 13 assist and double figures in goals in a very tough and competitive German league. If you watch him i am unsure it is what they need when they have Valencia and Young, but for 12m, to add what he has to your squad i think that is a bargain. I bet they wish they got Hazard though, he just has that bit more magic about him.
Paris St Germain are rumoured to be preparing a €150m bid for Rooney.......thats just silly money, dont know how much that is in £ but still its crazy
I'd like to see Adam Johnson move away from Man City. He's one of the most gifted English players of his generation but he's just not impressing England managers enough at City. Every time he comes on he seems to score, yet he's consistently behind Downing who plays every game and never scores or assists.
Who knows where they will play. Thats down to the manager. But good players can play anywhere and IF the 4 - 5 -1 formations kept then i suspect Torres and Hulk wont start the same game. TWT as always though.
Its his lifestyle away from the game according to Mancini that needs to change. Adam Johnson should walk into the England squad on ability alone. imo. If Frank Lampard is ruled out its Jordan Hendersen who will replace him. What a waste Roy.
I think he's already thinking of possibly playing Jones in midfield after he drafted in Jagielka for Barry (that's what I read on BBC anyhow)
I've didn't see much of the premier league but I gather he's not set the world alight with his performances. Who else is on stand-by?
