Was gonna post this in the Tevez thread but it has been a while since i did a good poll.


PSG ruled themselves out now Inter Milan have.

If this was the only way to rid of him in January, Would you accept it????

I know Torres is out of form but a change of scenery and better players.

Assuming Torres would be paid less per week (considering his form, it would seem likely) and it would get Tevez off our book, I'd certainly consider it. He's a former team-mate of Aguero too, isn't he? I can't see many of the parties involved going for it though. I think City would ideally want Tevez out of the Premier League.

no, if only for the reason that we'd be swapping a striker that couldn't score in a brothel with a gold card strapped to his cock for a player who will, without fail, score goals for a major and direct competitor.

No chuffing way! Are you all mad? I'd rather go with G's previous suggestion of DJ Campbell.

I think Torres is a different type of player and would be more suited to our style of play than Chelsea's.

I reckon he would do okay with us, linking with Aguero and Silva! Its just confidence and potentially injuries!

Given that Arseole hasn't played for over 3 and a half months, there would be no guarantee (Hurrah) that Carlos would go straight into the chelsea team with Drogba sturridge and Mata.

Yes there is. And he'd score. A lot. And Chelsea fans would all be cocks about it (well, even more cock-ish).

No.

I don't want to see Tevez in any club that is in direct competition with us (other than champs league)

yes,

Tevez is fat and wouldn't be able to push into the first team for awhile. Chelsea might play him immediately because they've got no one else, but then he'd have a poor touch due to not playing for months (and being fat).

Meanwhile, Torres would be rotated in the team, getting chances with Balotelli's antics and Dzeko's injuries. I could certainly see Torres being a super sub for Aguero/Dzeko while Balo would come in for Nasri/Aguero/Dzeko

I'd rather the thick stumpy cnut rotted his career away than we swap or sell him to a Premiership side.
