Man City with the backing of the new owner,Manchester City have pulled off the coup of the summer by signing Robinho from Real Madrid for what is, for now, a British transfer record of £32.5million.

Did Shaun Wright Phillips realize that he has left the old Chelsea for the new Chelsea.

He will probably warm the bench again once the superstar players arrive next January.

The America great depression of the 1930s started when the economy bubble reached saturated point and collapsed.

Is the EPL brand reaching it's peak / at saturation point / or collapsing soon.

The ticket prices and TV rights are getting more and more expensive that the great majority of fans would find it harder to fork out money with each passing season, some had already given up season tickets or cable TV. The matches attendances of most EPL clubs are falling rapidly like domino effect. Merchandise sales are too costly and fans are not buying. Lastly the clubs were buying themselves into heavier debts trying to complete with the surreal Chelsea, Real Madrid in the transfer market.

think, the EPL great depression is coming sooner than one think. :cool:

Re: Man City have made 70millions Euro bids for Buffon

Buffon dismisses City reports

Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon has laughed off reports linking him with a 70million euro transfer to Manchester City.
City's new Abu Dhabi-based owners, the United Group for Development and Investment, broke the British transfer record to sign Robinho and the chances are more big names will follow when the transfer window opens again in January.
But the Juventus number one, who is currently with the Italy team preparing for Saturday's World Cup qualifier against Cyprus, claims: "It's a journalist's fantasy."
"If an offer like that one arrived, I believe Juve would look at the numbers. But I doubt it would ever arrive," he added.
Juve paid Parma £31million for Buffon in 2001 and the 30-year-old is under contract at the Stadio Olimpico until 2013.

this is quite interesting,that is the power of money.

All the hype is expected, good feel is a welcome boost. Everything to gain when big talk comes cheap. Acid test is show the colour of money.. and if big stars do turn up. 1 swallow don't make a summer. Club's pedigree is much more than just oil spill:p
