Thought city were supposed to be keeping their best young players rather than 'buying success?' Sturridge out. Hart replaced by a 32(?) year old keeper on big money. At least Ireland is still there though.

if he did want 60K+ per week, it would set a bit of a dangerous precedent, thats more than someone like vidic is supposedly on at united (i know there is talk of a new deal} . sturridge has played a handfull of games = 60k per week ffs, makes ronaldos new deal sound like a snip

U21 Serbia 1 Sweden 3; Belarus 1 Italy 2

Serbia had 6 booked and 2 sent off.

England to play Sweden and Italy to play Germany in the semis I presume. Sweden are at home, of course.

True it is way OTT but no surprise when compared to some of the wages city will be splashing out.

yeah but for 60,000 a week you got to prove your worth it and sturridge hasnt hes not going to get in their 1st tem so basically hes a money grabber ( good on the lad but bye bye) as for hart he has gone on loan and will come back next year and fight for hes place. Have we sold Onuha, Richards, Evans, Williamson no so how can you say we are selling or youth??

Thought Evans was on his way?

Sturridge was an england shoe in 6 months ago according to city fans. But then you signed Craig Bellamy.
