Or to reaffirm his committment to Chelsea. There are rumours that he is interested in joining us and that he has met up with Mark Hughes. Whether or not that is true, is another matter altogether. As captain of Chelsea, he should put the runour to bed. However, he hasn't. He probably won't as he doesn't want to be seen as agitating for a move.



I don't know a Chelsea fan who thinks that Terry doesn't need to say anything.







Why does he 'have to play in CL'? He may think he has a chance of playing CL with City.



Would he be moving purely for the money? Can you prove that, or are you making an assumption? He is joining a club with the resources and ambition to be serious contenders at home and in Europe. He could be part of something new, from bringing a club from averageness to to the top table in Europe. I'm sure that will help to entice some players.



Players are not solely motivated by money. For example, Ronaldo went to Real because they are bigger than United.

Really I thought it was because he had won every honour he could with United and he'd always wanted to play for Madrid? Nice slant anyway!

He does not need to come out and say anything, City have said they want him and Chelsea have said he is not for sale at any price. So why does he have to say anything, it's not his fault City made a bid. Dress it up how you wish but money would be a huge motivating factor in a possible move to City.



It's a world cup year and as England captain I believe he needs to be playing CL football.



Nice try

Ronaldo moved to Real as he wanted to fulfill a childhod dream, those were his words, he never once talked about Madrid being a bigger club.

Do you believe that? Because if you do, you're probably the only person in England who does.

He said it

Are you still at it?

Agree with much of what Wilson says.....but I would, wouldn't I!!??!!

Obertan













Poor signing for Man U

'Not his fault'. You sound like you are protecting a poor, innocent child. There have been rumours that he has sounded out City about a move. City have bid for him twice. I doubt that they would do that without some encouragement. He owes it to the fans. He should tell them where he sees his future in light of the rumours. After all, these are rumours that won't go away until he refutes the claims.







Never said it wasn't. However, it's simply not correct to claim that there are no other reasons for wanting to join City.









Why would it make a difference? If Rooney missed all of the Champions League games this coming season because of injury and United getting knocked out early on, would you not take him to the World Cup if he came back from injury in, let's say, February?



The Prem is the best league in Europe. It's more testing than a handful of CL games against top opposition. Most of the CL is made up of chronic teams. I think City beat 3 CL teams in the UEFA Cup last season - Schalke, Copenhagen and Aalborg.

do you actually believe that?



angling for a pay rise - nothing more i reckon.

Mate, most of that is nonsense. I don't know where to start. He must be a Rag.



I could start with the rubbish about United acting with integrity in targetting and signing players...

Didn't I say that he was more likely top use us to gain a pay rise with Chelsea? I am all prepared to discuss issues but your post clearly shown that you should never join conversations half-way through.
