Nice one. Scoring 5 in a game is always good!
United are looking shaky. The papers this morning are very quiet on the Berbatov story.... will there be enough time, will they sell? Oh, it's exciting.

Citeh with new owners have bid more than 30 mill for the Berb!
They mightn't get him, but its the funniest story in ages! At least ManYoo will have to pay big.

Why would Berbatov want to join Manchester City?
Answer - unless he's just simply daft, he wouldn't.
He wanted to leave spurs to play in the champions league and his 'dream move' to United. Haha, let's see.
And City & Spurs are fighting for the same space in the table, so you wouldn't think Spurs would want to spell.
Trying to squeeze more cash from United?

SSN understands he's on his way to Manchester, but they don't know whether he's having a medical with United or City. Couldn't make it up could you?

Spuds have accepted the bid, and Sparky has lined up a meeting.
The word is that the new owners have 875 BILLION.
Even Berb goes to ManYoo, they'll have to pay big like Rooney.

Then it might not be in our interests to sign him now. Can't see him wanting to join Citeh though, reasons above. Unless of course it's huge wads of cash that he wants instead. Surely a footie player wouldn't be swayed by money. I don't believe it!  In other news.... Saha passed his medical.

Apparently Real Madrid are coming in with a 36 million bid Next Dr Evil will be on the case with a 25 BILLION deal offer. What a day this is turning out to be. It seems ludicrous that they wait for the last day and then there is all this action. Admittedly lots of it probably bullshit, but it all seems so silly.

Outrageous day and it's not over. If true, Citeh have made bids in excess of 90 million in the last 12 hours. Looking like Mr Berbatov will be wearing the Number 9 of Manchester United though. (Fingers crossed).

Robinho will get a shock when he rolls up outside "Manchester" stadium. Puzzled look, "What's this City thing, then?" Old Trafford's red isn't it, not blue.  Who would have thought.....

I'm still getting to grips with what has happened.
Man City outbidding Chelsea? Ominous.
Our transfer activity has been ahem less than spectacular.

On 5live the Abu Dabi fella kept saying "we have very deep pockets". Off air he supposedly said "they are deeper than Abramovitch".
Apparently they looked at the Arse and the Toon before buying Citeh.
What might have been!
In other news, 8 goals in his last 11 Prem games and Capello drops Owen. For Theo freakin Walcott. It makes no sense.
