Thanks!
So that man is out of form eh?
Too old, over the top, lost a yard?
What a joke.
He still is the man he was last season. I've never had any doubt. He just didn't perform, for a well known reason.
To counter all those (superstitious driven?) fears and worries in case we would sign him now, I'd like to turn your negative side of the medal like that:
When that lad finally is happy again, coached by a Spaniard who is sharing the same philosophy, surrounded by a team of quality footballers - even on the bench! -
we will see an immediate impact on our pace going forward and on our creativity upfront. We will score more.
Saying "no" to such a top player who only wants to join City tells me there must be an important psychological factor for many on here that I don't understand.
Who is able to let me understand why we shouldn't sign a world class player far below his market value of >100m
who is addressing exactly those parts of our game where we have to handle deep sitting compact defences?
Help me. Save my soul. Please.
