Transfer round-up – Sanchez, Cissokho, Cahill, Mata
24th June 2011
With the Alexis Sanchez transfer turning into a saga of epic proportions, City are enduring a frustrating time in the transfer window. Financial Fair Play is clearly affecting the buying of players, but selling clubs continue to ask exhorbitant prices.
Reading between the lines, and there’s a great many of them, Sanchez appears to want to move to Barcelona but Udinese are set upon driving the price up as high as possible. Without Barca’s interest the Chilean may well have been a City player by now, but the appeal of the European Champions is undeniable.
Concern over City’s transfer plans while rivals look to strengthen
25th May 2011
Today the broadsheets report that Roberto Mancini has headed to Abu Dhabi to discuss the summer’s transfer targets, with the intention of asking for more to be spent. Also present will be Garry Cook and Brian Marwood, who are believed to favour culling a few players from the wage bill before making a couple of signings.
City’s plan was to splash the cash prior to Financial Fair Play on young, quality players that will set the squad up for the long term and only need tweaking from now on. An impoved supply line from the Academy would provide future talent.
Transfer talk: Spanish press suggest Kaka for Adebayor swap deal
1st March 2011
Once again Kaka is being linked with a move to City, this time in a possible swap with Emmanuel Adebayor. Kaka to City is hardly an original story, yet this potential deal provokes some interesting thoughts.
Kaka has suffered injuries and a loss of form since his transfer to Madrid. In fact his form had been slipping prior to leaving Milan. Ozil is Mourinho’s signing and prefered creative midfielder.

Instead, the tribute here is a collection of some of the finest moments from the team he assembled with Joe Mercer.
