and a youngster as well. Sinclair wouldn't be worth much more than 2 or 3 m imo, he has't played since he left us. But as a squad player for us and one more it could work. There may be other options with players we have never heard of. They will have a massive squad.
You know Sinclair as a cheap trick at this point to put pressure on Dyer and Routs might not be a bad idea. The only thing, is that he wouldn't get a look-in at left wing without Montero being injured so he would have to play on the right side. How would he work with Rangel?
According to the media the Valencia/Negredo deal (£25 million) will fund the Bony transfer as well as Jovetic possibly leaving this transfer window to Italy. Apparently Eufa are happy that although the Negredo transfer is permanent in the Summer, the deal has already been signed off and therefore they have taken that into consideration. Bony deal is set to be signed off in the next couple of days according to talksport this morning.

I take it everyone has seen this? http://www1.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/9635903/bony-move-edges-closer Bony doesn't want to say his goodbye's in this video as he knows things can change in football, but they both seem very sure that the Man City deal is most certainly on.
"pay-as-you-play deal" ? well what a bloody cheek! So if he's sat on the bench watching Aguero play, then he doesn't get payed? he'd be stupid to sign such a deal in my view............
I hope it's true. There's no way in hell surely that he will take that deal? I like what Monk has said today in that if they don't meet our valuation then they won't be having him. If Bony does go, we're going to be getting every last penny out of them
nothing is final and the deal looks more likely to be scuppered than taking place atm. Man city are adamant they wont pay the asking price let alone pay it all in one go. Something has got to give and it will probably be us....
