Where's the official Korea DPR support thread for their first qualifying in 44 years? They sure as hell won't have a forum for their own fans. Or internet for that matter.

Tevez to City, its official...hells yes! I really like this guy...this team is looking like a force to be reckoned with...Tevez, Santa Cruz, Adebayor possibly, Bojinov, Bellamy, Ireland, Robinho, SWP...I'd love Terry in the back four...hoping he can be pried away from Chelski over to Middle Eastlands.

The biggest problem for Cit-eh is they are investing a lot in attacking talent without much of a glance at the back guard. Sort of a Madrid Lite.

I think they have faith in Richards (swine flu) and Dunne. I liked Chorluka lots, but the young Argie is a decent replacement for him, if he can stay on the pitch

Well, Dunne will need to do much better than last year. Of course, they may get Terry once they offer him a few acres of oil wells.

You can have Adebayor, the ungrateful twat.

Terry is past his prime.

I think Terry was injured for much of this past season, hope he can stay healthy wherever he goes, he's a hell of a centre back

Tevez is a traitor and he's totally overrated. No control, bad passing and an even worse finisher, good luck on the bench.

I hope City go for Adebayor, poor man's Drogba. As they sing:"Adebayor, Adebayor, his dad washes elephants, his mom's a W....!"

Adebayor isn't half as good as he thinks he is. Hell, he only scored one more goal than Bendtner last season, and he was anonymous during the CL semis. 25 million could be enough to get a quality striker like Luis Fabiano, but I hope we can get a solid DM as well, such as Cana or even Flamini, who is rumored to want a return.

could see huntelaar playing next to van persie if the stuttgart deal doesnt pan out. would probably fit well under arsene scheme of young gunners.

Citeh are certainly picking up some decent players but most of them seem to be ones with 'reputations', I'm not sure you want Adebayor, Tevez and Craig Bellamy in the same room. I'm glad that Tevez has gone, he enjoyed a pretty good season for the first year but was rather tiresome last year. As for the Utd team as it stands, I'm happy to see how it works out for a year or two, there's a great deal of talent and potential there.

I'm interested to see how they do this year without Ronaldo...that guy was dynamite, and a huge loss. Even Tevez leaving leaves them with Rooney and Berbatov up front...with an injury who would they use? The Italian kid? You think he's the real deal?

I agree with the assertation of these guys coming with reputations...even Robinho...but tell me a footballer w/out a reputation, and I'll sell you a bridge here in Brooklyn.

We may well see Arshavin playing a Bergkamp role next season. Don't forget Rosicky is "fit" again. Jay Simpson returns from a loan spell. There may not be a replacement for Adebayor per se, AW will just given Bendtner more playing time.

Would love to see AW get the cheque book out and sign David Villa. That will never happen tho'.
