Do we have any weaknesses?? RE January window.

I'd like Hummels if Kolo goes but there is big talk of Chivu coming in July.

I'd also like Hoilett, which I've been saying for ages and I feel like someone will shoot me every time I mention it :)

Is decent Hoilett but is he really any better than what we have already got? Would probably become a decent squad player. Agree with the centre back situation to a degree but don't think Lescott has put a foot wrong this season, although i agree he is not world class in comparison to VK.

Young and can play wide. Like you said, good squad player. And I too believe Lescott has been great this year. Always solid but I just think we have 3 world class strikers who rotate. So why not the same for CB's.

We need a top class winger in my view. Next season I would expect we will go for a big signing winger. A different option down the wings to Adam Johnson. I would have a look at Andre Schurrle from Leverkusen looks a real talent up front or on the wing.

Chivu? Fuck that. Let Inter flog their deadwood to someone else.

Tell me about it. Although I'm sure Bob knows what he is doing.

Hazard would be the best winger choice but he is going to be obscenely expensive, I'm not sure we want to pay £30m for a possible impact player. Cerci could still be the best cheapish option.

I'd like to see us bring through some youth now. We have the perfect squad IMO.

If Kolo goes Savic is a more than capable replacement.
I'd like to see Guidetti as the 4th striker.

don't think that would ever be a winter transfer, either (regardless of where he goes).

he doesn't fit here. Even if he directly replace Adam Johnson in the squad, there wouldn't be enough games for someone of his calibre.

Me too although I don't think we have a winger at youth level who can make it which is why I think we could have to buy one if Mancini identifies the need for one. Do you think Helan has any chance of making it because I'm skeptical about him and Henshall is years off ready if he ever will be.

Only seen Helan once and he didn't strike me as the kind of player you go to the effort of getting into trouble with to sign him. The fact that he has been unused sub for Carlisle so far tells me no.

Defensively we need cover

Can't see how anyone that good would sit on the bench tho.

 

[city diehard]

ACB eventually I would like Hummels, he's of high quality and I do think due to Tevez going in Jan. I think Manicini would like another striker. Rumours a few weeks ago that Van Persie won't renew his contact, has put his house on the market and commented about the contract situation that he wants "to concentrate on his football" (that old chestnut). I would also like and I think Mancini likes him, Cavani, looks a real talent.
