Subject: RE: BS: Wayne Rooney on the way out
Yes, definitely wishing Bryan Robson well.
Sadly I think you are also right about Carlos Tevez. He has done a great job for us but the truth is, we are not quite yet up to his very high standards. I do not think he will return to South America, as there is hardly any club there which could afford his very expensive services. Real Madrid or a top Italian club look more likely destinations. After the Robinho fiasco, I think City will be wary of just buying any top striker, whom they can afford (which these days probably means any top striker...) Our vain and ugly behaviour there - as in the bids for Kaka and Torres - made us look pretty grotesque. City will have to change the style of play - probably with two taller, but fast forwards hunting together. That could mean a return for Jo if he is still at Eastlands next year. He is left footed and he can play a bit.
