Apparently not enough if they want that revolutionary 1-2-7 formation to work.

1-1-9 if they buy Adebayor.

Ah yes. I'd actually pay their sure-to-be-ridiculous-next-season ticket prices to see them play like that - it'd be like watching the Chuckle Brothers play.

Wayne Bridge would provide a rock hard defense by himself i'm sure.

I'm not sure what they're charging for the coming season, but Citeh's season ticket prices are one of the cheapest, if I'm not mistaken.

They could play 10 up front and no goalie if they play Micah Richards and his swine flu at the back. The opposition wouldn't want to cross the half way line.

The mega-rich owner of Manchester City, Sheikh Mansour, met the club's players at his palace in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday and presented each of them with a watch worth £168,000.

Will Adebayor really go to the city?
has anything been confirmed yet?

Not bad for a spot of work considering the season hasn't even started and all. I just dread to think what kinds of win bonuses they're all on.

According to BBC Sport he's been granted a work permit. I reckon it's a forgone conclusion that he's leaving. I've been wrong about this kinda thing before though.
