i dont think where someone is from has any bearing on how they are going play.

Hate to piss on your chips - but he isn't Italian.

He's African.

He was born in Sicily and raised by Italian parents, makes him Italian by anybody's normal criteria,
 
was talkin about the success of italian born players in the english leagues not many success stories from seria a to prem is what i meant

Anyway, whilst we determine his origin or nationality... Have we signed him yet? Any news?
Info posted here earlier. Talks between his agent and us today to finalise it all. So say didn't go well. AKA they're both doing they're jobs and finding an agreement. Talks resume tomorrow between the agent and us.

I disagree ..

at the top end of the league (which IS where we r going to be!) the likes of ZOLA, VIALLI, DiMatteo all did well.. playing in a good team..;)

We r going to be giving the service any striker will thrive off!!

Happy days!!

I always used to watch him as my dad was a Wednesday fan. Played in the Masters for them the other day and still had it.
 
Top player was Carbone. Sheff Wednesday used to have a good team then, a few good players in it. Seem to remember Guy Whittingham being pretty good for them too.

Old mate Boswell just posted Balotelli is done.

i know he KFA but still maybe a good sign

He also posted in unrelated matter.. Maicon to R. Madrid done too.

Does this mean thing about David Luiz? I hope it does, but probably doesnt.

What thing about Luiz? Did Boswell mention him?

I was asking about David Luiz.. since Real Madrid looks to have Macion I doubt they would get Luiz too in the same window.

One of the twitter fellas (newspaper jouno) over the weekend, not Boswell, said Maicon, Mario and Luiz were City's biggest target of as of now. (cant find the tweet now)
