Benayoun
*Gasp*
WTF?! WE SIGNED AN OLD MAN.

Bad move. 5.5m. Any news about his salary then?
Bad move by Benayoun too. I think he can only sit on the bench.
I do not mean he's bad. but just we got many player like him already. We do not need him.
And still, if he do something miracle on our right wing position, I salute him.

Did you guys won the league after spending close two 100m on players? You finished 2nd. And it was only ManUtd who was in a rebuilding process and Arsenal back then. City have it harder since they are further down the line a bit when they started spending. And this time there are better teams around. The big 4(Liverpool included), Spurs, Villa, Everton.. they're all strong this time. It will just be a matter of time though before they break into the top 4. Once that happens, they will only get better.

Think about it. If Roman had bought Leeds, Leicester or Wolverhampton who all went down in 03/04 instead, it would be a Leeds/Leicester/Wolverhampton thread here which would be more popular. It might have taken longer, but with the money being thrown around, it was only a matter of time, like City would show eventually. 100m a season, where before that you were struggling if I remembered correctly with Bates although you got good results in the league. That's what people mean by money->trophy especially with clubs that have a sugar daddy like Chelsea has. From out of nowhere, comes in a rich guy, buy players out of his own pocket money, and presto, you're the champion. Like I said, could easily bought any other side, and would make it a champion in no time. Arsenal, us, Liverpool, any other side buy players from our own pocket money almost. We spent within our means which we earn through whatever income the clubs generated themselves.

On the pitch, it's clear you guys are worthy of whatever successes you had and will have, but it will be forever be in the shadows of the ££ with Russian signature stamped on top of every trophy. Don't cry when people doesn't acknowledge you guys as worthy. The fact is, without Roman, you wouldn't have the same amount of successes over the last few years since he came. You guys just have to live with that reputation.

eh, how come my post kena quote pulak 

PS: i dun say everyone is a GH, i said everyone STARTED as a GH. Either start liking football to support a great team, or start supporting a club because of a great player there.

wanna know how anelka scored the first goal?

he has changed his boots from puma to adidas!

the blues back is not up to par and unlucky for the miss kick from the WH stricker... felt that ramirez is not the fit role to play, he should play more up as there is essien and mikel... still think yossi best fit the lampard role...

ramires also did not impress me much. he was more of a normal player and i see him overly defensive most of the time. we already have mikel at the bottom, ramires should be providing the forwards some options. we dont need two defensive midfielders. he needs to up his game and quick. we have more games coming up.
