Sergi Roberto is more suited to the Xavi role - so he won't give much competition to Tello/Cuenca/Alexis. Rafinha can play pretty much everywhere in attack, not bad as well when it comes to playing false 9. I reckon Alexis and Cuenca could leave. Tello's got a big future. Exactly, I'd love him...

Very interesting indeed, but I fail to understand by what they mean by line-up, starting XI or simply match squad, so they will all at least be on the bench?

Cheers, could of sworn he played another game, my mistake. Nice to see him scoring - even if its in the EDS. -- Thu Feb 14, 2013 9:16 pm -- I get what you're saying - too much hype is not good. But in regards to his passing - he got something like 8 or so assists last season, I didn't watch...

Any of you had a look at this (sorry if it's already been posted, skimmed through the forum, couldn't find it) <a class="postlink" href="http://www.caughtoffside.com/2013/02/14/monaco-want-man-city-boss-roberto-mancini-patrick-vieira-ready-to-take-over-at-the-etihad-stadium/"...

Good move for the lad, hopefully he can get a lot of games. Seeing as he can play as a LB, I could see him being back-up for Clichy next season if Kolarov is sold and a back-up isn't bought.

No, he is not wank. Sinclair has barely received game time, he needs more chances. The game time he does receive about 13 minutes or so. He is not a rubbish player - he proved that last for Swansea. His confidence must be rock bottom too, I really hope Mancini uses him against Leeds, if he does...

Doubt it, remember seeing an article which quoted Mancini saying he has a couple more weeks to go, that was only a few days ago. But if he is playing games for the EDS, it shouldn't be too long for him. He has so far played around 225 minutes of football for EDS in about three weeks, I think...

I really want to see him given a run out at Leeds. I'd love to see him start, he's 19 now, he needs to be playing regularly in a league. At the start of the season, the team I'd want him to go is Swansea, but their midfield is quite strong, so he would find it difficult to make it into the...

Yes very much my thoughts too. Terrible with the ball, all he did was pass the ball to the side. Wanyama gets a lot of press but I think that Pogba is miles ahead of Wanyama. Both got a very good build, play in similar positions but Pogba is way better on the ball. (I'm not judging Pogba on...

I think the OP is way too cynical, I mean come on, you can't expect them to be making radical changes within a period of 6 months. This will take years. Like others have mentioned, the whole point of Ferran & Txiki's appointment was so City can become a sustainable club a la...

Jonathan Williams, plays as an attacking mid. Quite you g too, think he's about 18.

Basically get City like Barcelona - a team that is full of word class players, most of which are from the academy. Emphasis on the youth academy though - I want children to grow up playing the 'City way'. Install a culture like how Barca have done with La Masia. It will take years though, but it...

Quite like that one! Take out Richards though, slot in Zaba and it's perfect. Silva plays so much better when he is just behind the strikers, playing that classic attacking mid role. Tevez and Aguero speaks for itself.

No chance would Madrid sell him. Great player and he's the same age as Nastasic. I think he is better than Nastasic but only slightly.

He seems very calm in the interview and humble (and like some said earlier, he is quite articulate, Kompany-esque). I'm still sceptical (not see enough of him) of the signing, but he is one for the future and seeing as he was a free agent, if in the future he is sold, it will be an instant...

Midfield does need to be looked at, Garcia is playing better but still looks mediocre, doesn't seem to make any creative passes too. Benat or a deep-lying midfielder similar to him required. Barry tried to get forward but he's at his best when defending. Not sure about Rodwell's passing, I...

I can't wait for all of this to come into fruition, it's definitely going to be an interesting summer. Here my ins and outs; *Possibility but I'm not 100% confident Outs: Dzeko - I'm sure Dzeko will be sold, he's a great player but a bit of a hit and miss. Santa Cruz - Just get him off the...

Yeah, I agree with you Matt. He's very much a Dzeko type of player, however, I think he's quite good with his feet; fairly tricky when it comes to dribbling.

Guidetti scored yesterday in the EDS game against Bolton, final score was 3-3. Pozo got a brace! Guidetti also played the full 90 minutes and said on twitter that it felt good. I still think it'll be a couple of weeks before he gets first team action. A few more EDS games and he should be ready...

Its a bit sad to see him go - always love a good character, but it's for the best! He was getting out of hand. I really hope City don't sign a new striker, I want Guidetti to feature more (obviously after he's fully fit). The question is though; will City sign anyone this window? I want City to...
