Hamburger SV apparently say Vincent Kompany is to join Manchester City |
I just came on to post this, but you beat me to it. :p
This guy has huge potential, and I think he could become one of City's better buys over the past 2 years. |

yeah. Downside is that city now have 5 very good centre backs, ie. Dunne, Richards, Onohua, Ben-Haim and you could maybe count Corluka, alongside Kompany. |

Arsenal full-back Armand Traore has joined Portsmouth on a season-long loan.
The 18-year-old Frenchman is highly-rated at Emirates Stadium, and will look to gain valuable first-team experience during his time at Fratton Park.
Traore's switch to Harry Redknapp's side follows Arsenal's surprise capture of experienced defender Mikael Silvestre from Manchester United on Wednesday.
The attacking left-back, who can also operate in midfield, recently penned a new long-term contract with the Gunners. |

Thats exactly what i was thinking when i saw it. Onuoha and Corluka are more full backs but still buying both Ben-Haim and Kompany after the fantastic season Richards and Dunne had last year it seems a little strange when money could be spent elsewhere for them |

Yeah, especially when they don't seem happy with garrido at left back and lack depth in other places...
I honestly think we'll see Corluka moved infront of the 2 centre backs (dunne & kompany) with richards at right back & ben-haim at left back where he's ok but not awesome. He'll be hammered by wingers like ronaldo milner ashley young etc but against teams that lack pace out wide he'll be fine. |

In Hamburg we waited for 2 years to see more of him than just "potential". And he's always injured, just 29 games in 2 seasons. |

watching him make his debut live at the moment...... He's being played in midfield as the holding player ahead of Richards & Ben-Haim |

Yeah, it must have been frustrating. But he's still only 22, so neutral fans (like myself) can still have hope. |

But at least we used the money from the deal to sign Alex Silva out of Sao Paulo. |
