I’d like to see Ireland.I have heard reports that he won’t have much playing time so he asked to leave and City according to the reports won’t ask for a lot of money in exchange which is good for us..
Love these percentages. But without any money I’d put all incoming players at 0%. At least any notable ones. Which hurts my soul.
I’d like a lot of these players but i think we need to sell to get funds so i wouldn’t mind seeing reira, lucus, babel, cavalieri go. I’m not sure if aquilani should go because if javier goes we need backup and i think their is more to see with aquilani.
type Milan Jovanovic into wikipedia n it says he is a Liverpool player as from 1st July 2010
