Manchester City, Milner is the player that they needed.
Aston Villa, Ireland is good and all that money is even better.
One of the most important transfers of the summer finally went through, James Milner will join Roberto Mancini's team of stars at Manchester City while Aston Villa get Stephen Ireland plus 16 million pounds. Many people say that Villa came out pretty well from the deal, what do you say?
Manchester City midfielder Stephen Ireland has been strongly linked with a summer move away from Eastlands after falling out of favour at the club since the arrival of Roberto Mancini at the club. If you think he will be playing for someone other than the 5 teams pictured below, feel free to comment!
He will need some time to get used to playing again...
Stephen Ireland finally completed his much desired move away from Manchester City in the deal that took James Milner from Aston Villa to the Eastlands. Ireland had a good 2008/2009 season but then found himself sidelined by new manager Roberto Mancini. The move to Aston Villa is the 24-year-old's chance to revive his career, will he manage to do that?
He might take Stephen Ireland's spot...If he decides to come back.
Jaime O'Hara has had a great season for Portsmouth. Although the club were relegated, the tricky mid-fielder, on loan from Spurs, will definitely be using his status as a good buy for any club in the league. However, since U-21's the player has not received an England call up and thinks his best option may be to play for the boys in Green. Do you think Trapattoni will select him or will he leave him resting across the pond?
Stephen Ireland's patience has worn thin. The midfielder has handed in his transfer request and will be anxiously waiting on finding out who he will be playing for next season. Many of the big clubs are in for him but Man City will be putting a hefty price on his head. Possibly more than other clubs will think he's worth. Was he right in doing so or not?
Midfielder Stephen Ireland has been out of favour lately but Mancini stated that the 23 year old is still part of his plans. The fact is that Ireland has seen a lot of the reserves bench lately, do you believe that Ireland will stay with the Citizens.
Stephen Ireland has been strongly linked with a move away from Manchester City in recent weeks and with reports coming out today that the midfielder has fallen out with City boss Roberto Mancini, it will be interesting to see if Ireland remains a City player for much longer. Do you think Ireland will leave Eastlands before the transfer window shuts? Vote now!
Thierry Henry's hand knocked Ireland out of the World Cup and sent France to South Africa. Do you think the Barcelona striker should be allowed play at this year's World Cup?
