Fernandinho

I think we'd only sell Barry if he demanded at the very least the same wages he's currently on.

From all indications, and it seems like he's one of the few "team first" type of players around these days, I know it wouldn't surprise me if he decided to take a pay cut to stay in the squad, rather than go to Fulham or something just to play every week.

I'd be surprised if the final price is actually 23 million. Remember when the papers reported City paying 22 million for Garcia?

This badger isn't worth more than £10 million

Woo hoo this is THE signing we have been crying out for

this is the same guy who said he was definitely playing in manchester in january. maybe this links to the fact the deal was agreed back in january but certain things werent ironed out in time

 

[terry_phealens_mum]

Signed back in january, only now revealed

Does this mean he is cup tied?

 

[bobmcfc]

Is this true ? I've been out all day and there is nothing on Ssn about it

I definately don't think we will be selling Barry.

For me, what Fernandinho will bring is competition for Yaya, something he really needs as we cannot rely on him for every game we play, and as we have seen in the CL he has great box to box qualities so it's a little bit like for like.

If anything he could be versatile for us, he could play next to Yaya, or next to Barry with Yaya going up top.

We could even play a midfield three of Fernandinho - Yaya - Barry, so I definatley believe he could be a fantastic addition for us.

The big question though is what happens to Garcia and Rodders? Rodders is for the future, but Garcia I don't know.

Maybe he could be a center back option?

Or maybe we could admit he was a huge mistake and ship him out at a huge loss.

Who is going to buy him though?

Hopefully a Spanish or maybe Italian club,he's destined for midtable obscurity whichever.

It actually annoys me that we even considered him good enough,never mind shelling out 16m??

I have much higher hopes for Fernandinho.
