I think Ozil would be a good signing for United, personally would rather see them get Rodwell.

Balotelli is under 21 so can play anyway, I'd still rather have Bellamy in the sqaud then Jo.

I'd love Fulham to sign Ireland / Bellamy / Jo to be honest. Personally think that Ireland would do well at almost any club in the league.

Balotelli a done deal? Said by Thursday didn't they? Still not heard anything concrete?

Milner, ha. Seriously heard that you're offering 20 million + Ireland. I'd take that all day long as Villa :D
 
Kenwyn Jones 9/10 million to stoke.

Bruce will be rubbing his hands on that one. Don't get me wrong, jones will fit within what pullis wants from his strikers, but jones is no more effective than fuller or sidbe, his talent is as switch on/off as fullers, his ability to finish no better then sidbe.

Without picking a name, im sure there's somebody out there that would have come a lot cheaper in the same mold.

Stoke fans. good or bad? im just going on what i think of jones myself.
 
Wow lol whats going on lol just got Higuain haha
Can see Jones doing well at stoke especially with the delap throw and him being so big...and erm Balotelli deal should be wrapped up by tomorrow when hes allowed off italy duty and yeh i know i dont want to to sign Milner especially for 18m+ireland but Mancini wants him so :/
and i can see Ireland leaving and Bellamy/Jo on loan but would love Bellamy to stay..

Don't worry, you're still a **** :p

joking,

THe city Europa league slot is odd to say the least, it doesn't bode well, but I think Bellamy again saying the manager hasn't even spoken to him in 6 months says it all really. Other than being truly pathetic, I mean, is he giving him instructions at all, or through another coach, its daft as hell. 10 goals, 10 assists, and thats with injuries and being benched for a few games before Mancini caved in and put him back in. He was probably the hardest working player on the pitch and invaluable defensively aswell, he was immense making tackles and blocks against Arsenal, Utd, superb against both going forward, he was a big game player for sure, unlike Jo, Ade, Barry, etc, etc, etc.

Frankly ANY team in the league could use Bellamy, he's a mouthy git, but has a drive few other players have, and outruns, out works, and outscores 98% of players in the league despite his age.

Villa would be mad to turn down a huge lump of cash and Ireland for Milner, but will Ireland sign for a managerless club? He could always play for a season and leave if Villa get someone crap and go to pieces, better than riding the bench at City for a year.

Its even worse, footie365 says its a 25 Europa squad, and they only named 23, and they could easily have named 2 more,

Squad: Given, Hart, Taylor; Richards, Boateng, Zabaleta, Kolo Toure, Lescott, Logan, Bridge, Kolarov; Wright-Phillips, Adam Johnson, Yaya Toure, Michael Johnson, Barry, Vieira, Kompany, de Jong; Adebayor, Robinho, Santa Cruz, Tevez.

Robinho? Zabaleta and Michael Johnson over Bellamy and Ireland, who would both count as homegrown so not an issue?

Though I have no clue if Michael Johnson is back from injury yet, and I assume that frankly Robinho, Zabaleta, SWP would probably be moving on for being, well, hated/crap(for the record I still think Robinho's been mostly great, only since a long term injury and zero form has he looked bad). Ireland and Bellamy are better than, well 10-12 of those players at least, madness to leave them out. No idea why Silva's been ommited unless he has an injury. So what he was in the world cup, he barely played, has had time since and has a while till they register for the later phases of the cup?

This is the other thing though, how many times do they register, don't you re-register for the later stages, but if you're in early qualifying rounds I'm not sure that you register for one knock out stage at a time then once for the group stage?

EDIT:- Does anyone know if this 23 man squad is for the play off game only, or the team for play off and group stages at least? Leaving them out for one game doesn't mean much, leaving them out for basically months/after xmas would be far more telling. Wiki's Europa page failed me :(


EDIT2:- This team is registered till the knockout stage when they can change 3 players, so Bellamy/Ireland will be pee'd/out the club.

Sky Sports seems to be hinting that Silva wasn't included because they couldn't fit in another non homegrown player, though I would have picked him ahead of some others. Considering Silva's now not able to play till basically post xmas in Europe, and they put Robinho in, I can't see him being too happy, even more so if Robinho is sold.
