Badstuber

[Andouble]

Watching his YouTube compilations he seems to be an absolutely incredible passer of the ball, quite a few 40+ yard through-balls right on the nose. Clear to see why Pep likes him.

lets try that again:

isn't that the point of him going on loan though, he's come back to fitness but cant get playing time at bayern? personally dont think we need cover at CB, fullback is the real issue here

We have 2 centre backs and Kolarov. We definitely need injury cover.

How dare you speak positively after all the Guardiolas on this thread have dismissed him before he's even signed for City.

I just want to see a signing and Badstuber is more than good enough.

You heard anything regarding full backs?

Nope. Think Grimaldi is a target, but not until summer.

He's currently injured or has been for the last 10 weeks or so, so I don't think it would be a good time to buy him anyway.

We have to sign players ready to play and not players such as Badstuber

Guardiola has sanctioned a six-month loan deal for for Bayern defender Holger Badstuber (27) as a temporary solution. [@MullockSMirror]

My eldest son aged 32 has told me pace wise he's as slow as a cart horse, a bit like Kolerov.

Maybe as a full German International he's better as a footballer.

On the plus side he's 6 foot 3 inches so will provide height at set pieces.

Another positive is he's left footed and he looks like he can make a good pass.

It's a loan deal so a no risk signing.

Cheers bud.

Does seem like Pep would like to go back to a back 3 as and when we have enough fit centre backs.
