Really like the look of this guy. He is a raw talent and clearly has a very good football brain. Physically imposing and some lovely footwork to boot. He is destined for bigger things than Bruges (no disrespect!) No idea what he would cost at the moment but wouldn’t mind if we showed an interest...

Arsenal have had the Invincibles. We’ve had the Centurions and the Fourmidables. 20 consecutive wins and 27 unbeaten in the current campaign. Breaking records for the fun of it. I honestly think this is the best squad I have ever witnessed in my 50 yrs of watching football and they are now...

Have watched Norwich matches on several occasions this season and Cantwell has consistently been their standout player. Tall and surprisingly quick he is technically very good and most importantly he uses the ball very intelligently. He would seem to fit the mould for Pep, is the right age and...

When the likes of Didier Drogba, Ramires and Carlos Tevez decided to move to the Chinese super league it looked to me as if they were players reaching the twilight of their careers in top flight football looking to cash in on the last few years of their professional careers. However, the...

Regardless of our inability to convert enough chances at the attacking end of the pitch it is glaringly obvious that our defensive line is not doing the business. It will be our downfall when it comes to winning any titles. It seems to me that it makes no difference whether we play 3 or 4 at the...

Have been a fan of this guy for some time. Last night he ran riot against an admittedly average dipper midfield. He strikes me as having all the qualities required to be a very good player for us and at 27 he still has some very good years ahead. Would not break the bank either I suspect...

Under 21 Germany international looks to be maturing very nicely into a top quality midfielder. Any clues as to why he was let go by Pep? Looks a really good prospect at his age.

Apparently available in the January transfer window for £10 million buy out clause. I would prefer him to Isco especially at a third of the price. Looks to me as he could be a worthy alternative/successor to David Silva and at only 23 plenty of football left in his legs.

Morning all. Having reflected on last night's disappointment it strikes me that good defences rely on a solid centre back pairing. Arsenal have Mertesaker/Koscelni, Chelsea have Terry/Cahill, Bayern Dante/Boateng etc etc. It baffles me that we seem to be playing Kompany along side an assortment...

For all the (predictable) moaning on this forum nobody can say we do not create chances to win games. To my mind converting these chances into goals has become our real problem. We are pretty solid at the back and dominate possession in the middle. Just don't seem to be taking our chances...

I have noticed a strange phenomenon in recent months. I don't appear to suffer from the same nagging anxiety I used to in the run up to games. Before this, I use to start churning games over from the middle of the week in anticipation, building up to the night before games when I often would...

....nightmare has come true. He took a real battering today but deceives some respect for holding his hands up to the media. The look on his face at the final whistle said it all. He knows just how good we are now. Mancini completely out-manouverd him today. Brilliant!!

...we definitely are not! Where are all those pundits and journos who spent the whole of last season and this pre-season telling the world we were overdependent on Tevez? Truth is I think we are a better side without him as he does not drop deep and prevent the likes of Silva dictating play...

I hope never to hear any talk of negativity levelled at RM again. Fed up to the back teeth with all this "will he take off the shackles" nonsense. In my mind the manager has always intended to play attacking football as an attacking footballer himself. Fact is it has taken time for the players...

Given his son in law is with us now I assume Diego will be visiting COMS to watch the lad play. I was wondering what sort of a welcome the hand of God will get from us blues. I really hope he gets a standing ovation in recognition for the great player he has been rather than any booing for...

Today the team got a monkey off their back. They proved they are able to get results on the big stage. I think this will instill the confidence in the players that they can beat the best in the land on a regular basis. The celebrations at the end showed that. This result could be the turning...

Great day fellow blues. Very happy with our performance today. Good results for us at other games other that at Spuds. They seem to be able to grind out last ditch wins on a regular basis. Not sure if it's down to luck or is Arry really that good (very much doubt it) Either way spuds worry the...

..the puzzle. Thought he was excellent today. His all round play was top draw. He is clearly much more than a target man. His movement was very good and I was very impressed with his link up play, especially as he has only been with us for a few training sessions. Clearly looks an intelligent...

Pundits and press alike keep coming up with this as an excuse for City not being candidates for winning the league. Personally I don't buy this. I would argue that without him in the side we play more as a team. Silva seems to be able to run the game better as Tevez, when he plays, comes to...

It looks as if RM is in the market for a new striker (hopefully getting shot of Adebaby inthe process) Looks to me as if these two would both fit the bill. Money aside (and let's face these days it doesn't really matter) who would you guys like to see in a city shirt? Have to say I am a big fan...
