lol, Ireland won't go to Utd, he might go to Arsenal though. What on earth is going on with Ireland though, trouble maker in the locker room, lazy trainer, or just didn't like Hughes getting the sack and mouthed off about it like Bellamy did?
Maybe the illness that made him pass out after (or was it during?) a game early season is actually something more chronic and Kanu like, weak heart and can't play every game or something? He was by far their best player last year, but looks like he's out on his behind like Dunne due to bad management, they haven't learnt anything.
Ade will only get worse anyway, is a big ego'd idiot and the haircut was probably the final straw for Mancini wanting to get rid of him, SWP is just pure and utter crap, utterly ineffective for 99.9% of a game, can't cross, shoots constantly only scores with a few deflections, awful passer, stupendously weak, and still better than Walcott
Theres better left backs than Bridge, he gets injured to much and is on a lot of cash, offloading seems smart, though he was happy to take the payday on the bench at Chelsea, will he be equally as happy to take an even bigger payday at City on the bench till his contract is up? most likely. I said back at the time, they were desparate for a left back and Bridge was pretty much the only one available, he's been hugely better than Ball and previous cover, but its time to move on.
Will Bellamy leave aswell though, it seems like he didn't get on with Mancini but Mancini has been forced to recognise Bellamy as a massively important player as when he was dropped, City were utter turd, and have been back on course with him playing again.
. I mean surely if he came then he's got to be confident that he would get a game ahead of Carrick
