Dont need pace if you can read the game so well.

 

[Blue Shield]

He's been at the Etihad today ,so a definite signing.I'm pleased about this as our defence is a shambles without Komps.

Don't apologise, that's Demichelis.

Thanks for that.

You can't beat a photo of a player in or around the ground to get you excited over a transfer.

This is a great signing IMO. Yesterday Lescott was a joke, and I'd play this guy over him any day until Big Vin is back.

Agree completely and don't know why people keep going on about pace !

 

[bondsman]

Ohh the modern game demands pace like xavi, pirlo, mata, schweinsteiger ?? Thats an interesting theory you've got there

Schweinsteiger and xavi aren't slow mate.

Ehhh you will find they fucking are

Behave you don't go past people like xavi drifts past without pace over 5 yards and schweinstieger is a fucking beast. He's not Ronaldo fast but like Gerrard he covers the ground very quickly.

Who the hell started this bullshit rumour about Demichelis' pace being slow?!

Are you absolutely blind... you don't even have to have watched him for a season to know the man has a really good pace on him...

Watch the vimeo vid a blue posted on here about 5 pages back and you will see the majority of his tackles/interceptions were when the opposition was on the counter...

He even match Ronaldo for pace over the first 10 yards on one of the clips...

I think most blues on here want a big name defender and don't realise this defender is seriously top end with CL experience, named in the La Liga 1st XI team, undestands how Pellegrini works and what h wants in defense not forgetting that he is Argentinian should settle pretty quickly within with the Spanish speaking lads and given he is Argie is no doubt a hard b*stard as well...

Exactly what we need in place of Vinny and at times possibly with Vinny giving out defense a rock solid foundation...

Missing Pepe and getting Demichelis is a blessing in disguise...

Somebody please post that link of Demichelis anytime someone whines "but he has no pace" PLUS, the lad can read the game very well (which can be seen with his multiple interceptions) and will prove very important in the UCL games as well the PL... good signing!

I'd like to see this announced today so that it raises my hopes, ever so very slightly, that we might pull something out of the bag tomorrow.

Are you being serious?

Sounds good to me too.

 

[forevermancity]

Not convinced but the management know better than me, so I trust them to make the right decisions

This. Last season, statistically the best defender was Per Mertesacker, who is slow as fuck.

Do Xavi, Pirlo, Puyol, Barry, Silva, Van Buyten, Ferdinand, Ozil, Berbatov etc need a lot of pace? No. No they don't.

And the funniest thing is, Demichelis isn't even that slow...

 

[Anthony Kun]

Come on Txiki, get it wrapped up!

 

[bournemouthblue]

The guy hasnt even kicked a ball for us yet !!! Lets get behind any player that plays for the blue shirt .
