De Rossi (again)

[MSP]

Huh? If I weren't a actually a City supporter, wouldn't I just say so before joining? What would be the point?

Unfortunately, I fall into the category of supporters on here who are called fake fans/rags/etc. just because I do criticize Mancini on occassion, don't say we should buy every player in the world, and don't view everything through blue tinted glasses.

I haven't seen you talking about Mancini but I've seen almost half of your posts are about Falcao at Chelsea.

No, I posted an article last week whose headline was about a Falcao-Torres swap with Chelsea, and I said that it also mentioned us and PSG, as they all do. Everything else I've said about Falcao was that I don't want the club to blow money on bringing in another striker before the other needs in the squad that are far more urgent are addressed.

I actually agree with you that striking position is not first to add to though it's hard to say no to Falcao, but it's strange that your first 20-30 posts were all about how City don't need them and Chelsea do and how he'll finish there.

Anyway, nevermind, let's go back to topic.

Oh when I first joined I was discussing that because that's what the topic was about on that thread at the time, I believe. Besides, loads of people on here have said the exact same thing. A couple people just a few hours ago in fact, I believe. Doesn't mean we're imposters...

Prandelli kicked him off from Italian friendly vs France.

Even though Roma's PR exercise seems to have backfired we still don't have a chance in signing him in my opinion. I am sure Txiki Begiristain will have a few alternatives to De Rossi lined up.

Such as Rodwell and Garcia ?


City already spent 30 Million Pound to improve the CM area on two players, so I am not sure if they have to reinvest in this area again.

well put. The only similarities between the two are they have 3 letter initials.

Yes we do because those two are not first eleven material.

I don't think this is a good deal at all.
He will cost much, and is going to past his prime in year or so...

Roma fans are pissed up, cos he is playing crap this season, majority calling to sell to PSG or City.

So every player we buy need to be first eleven material? Barca or Real diden´t buy any players who would go straight into the first eleven, they improved their squad so did we.

Our squad is weaker with players out to players in replacements.
Dejong > Garcia
Johnson > Sinclair


Maicon would havebeen bought regardless to cover and to coach down the line.
Nasty was bought that moment when Lescott headed the ball on backwards and Cisse buried it.

If we are going all out for Falcao then i think De Rosso will ve a no no

But this amount of money should be enough to buy a first team material.

You keep saying this. Chelsea bought Lukaku for £18m, Liverpool Henderson £15m, Downing £20m and Carrol £35m yet none of those are first team!

Cazorla 16m,Kagawa 17m & VDV 8m.

Why would we pick the bad and the stupid moves from Liverpool !

Lukaku is very expsive but at least he has the potential to be their new Drogba, but I am not sure if Sinclair or Garcia will ever be regular for City.

I'd argue we didn't.

When Silva,Yaya and even Barry are missing we are considerably weaker.

The Rags needed goals,they addressed that.

They didn't really need goals though, they wanted to lessen their over reliance on Rooney. What they needed to do was shore up midfield and defence to stop conceding as many goals. Which they haven't done.
