Man City pay Millions for Milner
Manchester City have completed the signing of former Aston Villa and current England international James Milner for a fee of £26 million. Milner who had played just under one hundred games for Villa has finally signed for City after transfer speculation which has lasted weeks, even months. The signing of Milner brings City's overall summer spending fee to an incredible £126 million, this fee includes the signings of Yaya Toure from Barcelona, Mario Ballotelli from Internazionale (Inter) Milan, David Siva from Valencia, Jerome Boateng from Hamburg, Alex Henshall from Swindon Town and Aleksander Kolarov from Lazio. Man City now have world class strikers of Santa Cruz, Adebayor, Ballotelli, Jo, Tevez, Silva and DID have the presence of Craig Bellamy but the signing of Mario Ballotelli is said to be what has driven Craig Bellamy away from Manchester. Cardiff City have signed the 31 year old Welshman on a loan until the end of the season. Craig's aims are to take the blue's to the premiership which seemed very possible at the start of the year but now they have snapped up Bellamy this will give them even higher title hopes. In other transfer news Mesut Ozil of Werder Bremen is a very unhappy man as Real Madrid made an offer for Ozil (who was phenomenal in South Africa) but when the transfer request came through nobody at Bremen had contacted Mesut to tell him. The chairman at Bremen just snubbed Real. Afterwards Ozil told the media he wants to be at one of Europe's best teams. He's been linked with moves to Barcelona and also Mancheter United whether he'll be allowed to leave Germany we aren't sure but I can say we'll be hearing of a lot more from Mesut Ozil this year.

Good job. Very informative and factual. Maybe try a more expressive, opinionated one next time or you could also do a report on today's game, as all I know is that it finished 1-1.
