Had Carson down but is not a really a main playerLampard was a loan, prior to him David Pizarro for an outfield player. Carson is here on loan now I believe. Lampard the best for impact and piss boiling.
That is exactly the point we were discussing. We are obviously out of the loop (not that we need anyone).Many of the G14 seem to like loaning players around among themselves - Barca, Madrid, Bayern, Juve, both Milans etc.
Think Fulop on emergency loan before them when Given bust his shoulder. Vieira the only free since the takeover to the best of my knowledge. We had the chance to sign Pizarro on a free but didn't take it.Had Carson down but is not a really a main player
Never wanted him anyway.Pizarro was a classy player, a pity he was towards the end of his career when we brought him in as a backup.
There was also the freebie that got away (for a while) - some useless midfielder called Guardiola who turned down playing for Stuart Pearce - or the other way round.
I think that it helps with both Ederson and Steffen being fairly young in terms of the goalkeeping position to have someone who's been around a while. I'm sure I've heard either Eddie or Zack (or even both) mention how good he is for them in training at some point.Think Fulop on emergency loan before them when Given bust his shoulder.

Yeah don't get our obsession with shite elderly keepers given the stable of talent we have in that regard.
Was Bernabia on loan?ali bernarbia ?
pizzaro?
He was, you're right. Not a bad deal that one when we had the purse strings tightened.Sagna was free wasnt he?
free i think, wasnt he training with someone city were looking at and keggy offered him a deal, might of got that totally wrongWas Bernabia on loan?
Pizarro was the first I thought of seeing this thread.
MVF God rest his soul.
Decent player, shame for him we had the best righ-back in the league in a smiliar age and when he started to decline Bac did as well. Didnt help that we were stagnating under Pellegrini as a whole. Shame we couldn't give him the title he wantedHe was, you're right. Not a bad deal that one when we had the purse strings tightened.
Yet both have probably played more top level senior games, Ederson certainly must have. Just think we should be bringing these lads in on coaching jobs and allowing the EDS lads time in the matchday squad for cup games.I think that it helps with both Ederson and Steffen being fairly young in terms of the goalkeeping position to have someone who's been around a while.

Think he was on his way to Sunderland and stopped at Carrington to say hi to someone(dont remember who) and Kev hijacked the deal on the spotfree i think, wasnt he training with someone city were looking at and keggy offered him a deal, might of got that totally wrong
