I say start with Mpenza and Benji up front and batter the living daylights out of em


Agreed! I think starting sturridge may be a mistake, if its a howler it may kill his confidence.

It's a gamble-if he scored...

I can't see him playing with 2 up front anyway-how often have we this season?  Can't really see the first time being Utd away...

For some reason im not ruling out bojinov to make an appearance, injured against scum.... returns against scum Hopefully sven will play with 2 strikers as you have to go at them on their turf, no point trying to defend.. make them think instead. Benjani and sturridge might work, Benjani and Boji will for sure Maybe the new guy Conceido will feature with Benjani. Would like to see Castillo on the right wing when he`s back.

Castillo(New winger maybe?), Benjani, Bojinov, Castillo, Mpenza, Sturridge, Conceido, Vassell, Bianchi, Corradi, Dickov and Samaras all still on our books, Thats 11 strikers, 12 with Ched evans, Fucking hell sven i hope you get rid of atleast 6 of them, and im sure you all know who they are.

You forgot Caicedo.

Thats the one cheers.

Certainly much happier at that price....

I think its pretty obvious he wont get to 75 apperances in little over 2 years so its a steal as long as he keeps banging them in. You can unerstand why people were worried....Harry was talking £9 million plus for a 29 year old and £7 million for defoe. It actually turns out its £9 million + for defoe and only £3.8 million upfront for Benji with a similar sum IF he makes 75 apperances over 2 seasons and the remainder of this season. WIth the forwards we are likely to have next season thats unlikey to happen; really hes just a stop gap to try and get us into europe this season.

I just noticed though we actually have around 11 strikers on our books at the moment (only a couple of them youth players)

Dickov out of contact in summer as is vassel I think presumably their contracts wont be extended. Corradi making a permanent move back to italy, probably Biachi as well Samaras will hopefully go. Mpenzas likely to go as well....

Its amazing the number of shit strikers we have managed to collect....

The only way we will do it is by having at go at them, we cant sit back....no chance.

Very well done City. That's not a bad price at all.

Oh and whoever said Mpenza is shit is being a tad harsh IMO


From Manchester with love

Read a bit more about this and apparently we are paying more funds when player makes 25, 50 and then full amount on 75 appearances.

Not quite as good as I thought but still shows we are no push overs.

I gave Elano my Porsche and now I want it back!
