Yeah I know its a gamble considering our finances. But you have to pay good money for hot prospects like him and the rest, especially when their already at a big club that dosnt need to sell. United paid "over the top" for Shrek, how much is he worth now? Arsenal pay "huge" sums for their youth players and just because they get a few games there their selling price hardly, if ever drops. His wage demand towards city just reflects their totally f***edup wage structure, im sure it would be less then that if he was negotiating with us. If he goes to City and gets the wages he wants he would have to spend his whole career there, not many clubs (if any) can justify those wages.
