    Should have worded that different - meant he wasn't a 'superstar' name for man city

    I don't think he will get in. Busquets, despite his 'antics', is a better player than Song IMO.

    I think they'll play Song at centre back, maybe instead of Mascherano?

    I could play centre half for Barca if they just want a defender. You rarely get any defending to do. They just want someone who is going to keep the ball moving

    But in the big games, the biggest, the champions league finals, the ones that matter - thats when it is important. Mascherano is solid in la liga, yet in the big euro games is a liability (ish). Put it this way, in the final would be rather take on song (solid but now quite an attacking midfielder) or like David Luiz (an actual defender who can play the ball) or a Vidic (solid)

    Barca's dream defender would be someone like Sol Bamba.

    Barca's dream defender is a younger Puyol.

    Someone who is equally good at passing the ball as he is sticking his head where it hurts.

    David Luiz? In football and looks!!

    Genuinely though, they could do a lot worse than Sol Bamba!!

    They are pretty much already there aren't they? they finished last season with a load of youth players and only a few professionals.

    They both turned Ipswich down. Ipswich have to be one of the worst clubs in the transfer window. They just keep signing crap

    Man City have signed Richard Wright on a free.

    He left Preston at the end of last season because it was too far away from his family in Ipswich <laugh>

    Oh well, nice little final payday for him before retirement!

    We could have sold them Conrad Logan if they was desperate enough to get Wright
