I have no idea how good a player this lad is but I know that we need a deep lying midfielder to just sit and cover the defence. If he fits the bill then we are already a better team than last season
 
I trust management on this after last summer. No idea what he is like but if he is good enough for them he is good enough for me. Fed up of eating humble pie. :-)

Totally agree. Champions again if we sign those 4 and keep Yaya imo. I'd also fancy us to do very well in the Champs League.

Google City v Porto and Porto v City (2012 games) and you'll probably be able to find torrents for both games.

The guy was among the best players on the pitch in both games.

It would be amazing business

If we signed those 4 players on top of what we have now then I expect a Champions League challenge from the players at our disposable.

If we sign those four players and keep Yaya then we're going to violate our FFP agreement, relinquish the suspended portion of our fine, and face further sanctions. On top of which we're going to find ourselves starting Yaya and Cesc in big games, just to keep big names happy, instead of fielding a balanced side.

If we start the season with Fernando, Fernandinho, Yaya, and Cesc at CM then one of them is asking for a transfer in January. Say what you will about squad rotation and all that, some of the team has to consist of squad players. You can't have someone like Cesc being content with FA Cup appearances or someone like Yaya sitting out big league games.

Not a good recommendation! I have just looked at the goal highlights from when we beat them 4 0 , he seemed to be diving into tackles all over the place. Hopefully his teammates were carp!

12m fee plus add ons up to 15m according to Fox over here .......

12m - good value FFP wise as add ons do not count in this window. Still have 37m lea way before we need to sell to cover additional costs.

What I am not clear about is does our transfer limit only cover players we will use in the CL or is it for all incoming ?

I believe it is for CL only

It would have to be for CL players. They cannot directly dictate business related the domestic league (although, these restrictions effectively do that).

Give the FA time, though, I am sure Gill will find a way.

I believe it's for all incoming minus all outgoing. I'd be happy to be wrong though.
 
CL only and only if you put the players name on the A list. So if we said to Fernando tough you ain't on the A list whatever we spend on him doesn't count towards the 49m.

Just reread the club FFP statement pretty sure that it's overall still but as this the wrong thread being a fernando thread I'll accept that I'm wrong.
