Its really going to rile the haters on here when he finds his feet and destroys a few teams with Yaya but hey there is always Joe Hart to fall back on when they need someone else to hate and spout vile about :-)
Are you Scooby Doo in disguise?

I say what I think. So far Fernandinho has looked far more similar to Garcia than Yaya. He has not impressed in either game, nor did he in pre season, and, regardless of the price tag, if he doesn't improve on Saturday he should be on the bench for the derby. I'd far rather start that game with a fired up James Milner than give Fernandinho another run out to see if he can step up.
I'm not writing the guy off, far from it. But if he needs time to settle in/adjust or whatever, he shouldn't be doing that as first choice on the team sheet. Let him adjust in training and have game time as a sub and in cup games.
I'd suggest you go to the match compilations thread in the match day forum to jog your memory. ;-)
Javi fucking Garcia my arse...................
what the f**k would he know ,I am the manager,of the dog and duck,and I know shit when I see it,LoveCity said:Yaya: "Fernandinho is a great player. Very clever. He reads the game well, is very technical, very physical. He is very safe, works hard and is very strong in the duels.
"In his debut, he did well, he was happy. He wants to learn, this is the most important to me, he is very open, which is very good."

Reminds me of a City fan coming away from Sunderland away at the stadium of light after we'd lost sayin Silva was too small for the premiership. No offence, but I hope you look similarly foolish for a knee jerk reaction to one bad defeat.

I don't do knee jerks. I'm offering what I believe to be a realistic appraisal of the player we have seen so far. If he steps up on Saturday and shows his alleged superstar class, I'd be absolutely delighted.
But, and this is a big but, if he doesn't do that, then I really hope that the price tag and the reputation can be set aside for now and Jimmy gets the start against the rags ahead of Fernandinho.

Milner will play against United, but so will Fernandinho. The guy will be our best signing of the summer when we look back in May.
