Bar Man City throwing cash at anything that moves.....

Even the likes of Real Madrid and Barca are'nt spending.

Not to mention Chelsea and Man utd.

Is it just a case of money not being there?

City have inflated the market in a recession. Other clubs won't sell much below City's valuation but no-one can pay those levels outside of City

Barca and Madrid already spent a bit.

Quite worrying for Utd fans though I would have thought.

Maybe a few more local lads will get a chance in a few leagues across europe with the £££ drying up ?! Be good for they do.

Why would it be worrying for United fans? Their major summer signing was a free transfer last year (Owen) and they have already done their dealings at the end of last season.

The majority of Premiership sides are so negative now, they are only looking out for players with defensive tendencies, that is the problem.

Wish arsenal could get another one or two

ibanez got a decent CV Rs1,are they liable to spend tho? my baggie pal reckons they are but as late as possible to avoid paying wages before the season starts.

By:

azertyioup_the_2nd When: 24 Jul 10 23:13

If that's true about saving on the wages then that is the most backward thing I have seen in a while. Surely they would pay the extra few weeks wages so the player can bed in during pre season.

azerty,it was a joke between Wolves /Albion fans cos WBA are notoriously tight.

baggies always buy late to avoid paying wages .

By:

Azerty doesn't get it.

By:

brngtwt When: 24 Jul 10 23:41

Don't get it myself anymore...gonna text my pal to confirm it was a joke.

Once City hand over the Milner cash O'Neill will get the market moving by strengthening. Watch it hot up later next week.
