I'm more worried Kenwrong will take 10mil, paid over 4 years...

If City did come in, then that's obviously far better for us, they'll just splash cash everywhere like Lescott, although he's had a great season, perhaps money well spent for them, certainly benefited us.

This is true, I'd hoped after the Lescott saga we'd learned how to play hardball. Then Arteta went...
 
If there's £20m on the table I think we'll take it unfortunately.

And sadly we should take that I reckon.

Not that it will then be put back into the squad though. Thats the hard part. 20M could go places with Moyes but not if he is only going to get say 5M of it.
 
I don't know why but people seem to think that because we sold Lescott for an inflated price of £24m, it means we will get around that for Baines. Man City were desperate to sign Lescott, partly because they wanted the player but also because they were making a statement of intent, they knew they were going to get overcharged for players due to their financial position and it should not be used as a yard stick for every other transfer, nor should Liverpool's ill fated acquisitions of Carroll, Henderson and Downing.
