City target Keita?

[Blue Smarties]

Just been given this link by a friend whose half Spanish, can't be bothered getting on the Google translate. Apparently something like "The 'pair' that formed with Yaya Toure in midfield Seydou Keita Barca could be repeated now in the City "

Or is it just another player using our great club to get a pay rise?

basically it says that it's gonna be tough because he figures into barca's plans and he's happy there. ohvell.

Well, how is Fabregas coming to the club expected to impact on Keita? It could make sense. Still I don't think it will happen as he wouldn't come cheap, and I don't think Mancini is 'allowed' another bank-buster this summer, that seems pretty clear now.

I think we could haggle down Barca under 10m for Keita because of his age (31). He would definitely work as a Vieira replacement and we could probably squeeze 3-4 years out of him, but as mentioned he is very happy at Barca. Then again, wasn't Yaya too?

Not the type of signing City make nowadays....I'm talking age.

 

[stavros]

top player.
always well impresed with him when hes played.

Excellent Vieira replacement IF we can get him for around 8m.

 

[Tameside Tom]

Excellent Vieira replacement IF we can get him for around 8m.

We will never pay that sort of money for someone of that age.

Yaya wouldnt be happy. Keita is the reason Yaya was dropped to the bench quite a bit.
