We do need to move on from this ageing partnership soon. They cant keep performing at this level especially at his age. He does continues to prove me wrong which is great but I think we need to get his replacement ready. Stones has a great player to learn from here and I hope he makes the most of Distins experience.

I will miss singing his song... na na na na na na....

I think the point he is trying to make is that in the next few seasons Man City will be in the CL and challenging for the EPL.I agree that this season they wont have a chance of the League but if they continue with spending their billions they will surely be challenging in the not too distant future. Sadly this will not be the case for us unles we get some serious investment. Team spirit and a great work ethic can not compete to that extent without investment.

Well they look good. Only missing the 'only the best is good enought' from the inside bottom. You never know it may actually be there. Got to be to good to be true.

I cant get over the prices of Fulham, Porthsmouth and West Ham!!

Personally I like it. I think we will really get people debating this kit (as we are all doing on this website) and it will generate some genuine interest. I would imagine this was spoken about upon the design of the kit, with such change there is bound to be such debate Change is good IMO

is there a reply or is it straight to pens in the quaters?

if you want a bit of a giggle take a look at http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/7590492.stm it is people texting in their transfers rumours. One that made me laugh was kaka was spotted on a bus on its way to old trafford!

what wages do you think he is on. I think this will be a good signing if we were clever and made the deal with a pay as you play type clause. Otherwise massive risk and should be focusing on the midfield.

im not too sure on this one. I think we need another goal scorer up front. When yak was injured or not on form last season our strikers did not bag a goal between them for a few weeks maybe more if i remember correctly. It would be great to have tim fit as we can play a different system which seems to bring a few goals however we need to plan for his injuries and if he is not on form. Some games we need the two up top and without yak there is not a goal scorer. I would like to see vaughn with a season under his belt see how he copes with it all.

I used to say when they brought fletcher on that they were settling for the draw even if they were winning I hope this stays as a rumour or I will be laughed at by my man u mate :blush02:

I think they will still do very well i would guess the semis. Agreed they are ageing so thats a disadvantage especially with the number of games the UEFA cups brings to a season. I would love to see them at Goodison!

why did he spend a night in jail?

chelsea at Goodison and we start the season off with a win vs the top 4

i suppose it would be stupid for the lads not to be match fit for the 1st game
