O'Neill spoke to Milner around March / April time, testing the water over him coming to SAFC.

At the time, he was struggling to get a game and has previously said he's been unhappy with the regime of Mancini.

Since then, they've won the title and his lack of games at City (in the first pick) did not affect his chances with England. They'll fancy their chances of a longer run in the Champions League this year and will need a big squad to do that.

The suggestion made at the time was that ManC would pay part of his wages and we'd have on loan for a year.

Meaning he's probably had a change of heart about coming here?

Why would they want a loan deal for a 26 year old international? Either they don't need him and there would be suitors to buy him, either they need him at City.
 
There will be no signings tonight.

In further no news news, we are not signing the concept of regret.
