Some breaking news today. The Guardian reports that Man City have agreed a fee with Arsenal to bring Adebayor to Eastlands.
Just yesterday, Manchester City finalized the signing of Carlitos Tevez, and with the imminent Adebayor signing, the team will complete it's 1-1-8 formation.
The final piece of the puzzle, defender John Terry - may not be too far behind.

If Santa Cruz, Eto'o, and Tevez weren't enough, rumors are now circulating in the blue side of Manchester that The Citizens will continue filling out their 1-1-8 formation by acquiring viral video superstar Mauro Boselli.
If you haven't heard of Boselli, that's OK - he's not an Argentina international nor does he play in Europe.

Vincent Kompany
Manchester City defensive midfielder Vincent Kompany is set to miss the start of the upcoming Premier League season due to foot surgery.

Adebayor is only owned by 6% of fantasy managers. Six percent.
