Fernando

[richards30]

So hopefully news today boys and girls?

Very smart player and reads the game very well. Saw a lot of what Fernandinho used to do for us last season. However really worried about his two footed challenges, BPL has become a wuss and penalize players a lot for those tackles.

I like a player who can do "the dirty and invisible stuff" - it's what NDJ did for us for a few years, it does not always show up on telly but it is vital for screening the defence, breaking up play, winning the ball back and setting up play - slightly worried that it says "a number of clubs" are looking at him

Nice video. If he dyes his head blue and goes through rooney like that in a city shirt he'll be a City legend.

good point, and I was trying my best not to flap - I really rate this guy, and I am 99% sure he will be our's. I am surprised though that at the fee being talked about that more clubs are not in for him

 

[01cravend]

Will be perfect in midfield against hard pressing teams

Looks a tough nut as well as skillful but I was less than impressed with the bit at 2:25 where he spat on a player, I hate crap like that.

I hope Vinnie has a fucking word in his shell-like,if he sees that as something that is acceptable.Likewise I also hate that sort of crap.

Do you mean the close up where he shoulder charges Lica (the Jonas Guitierrez lookalike) and then accidentally dribbles down his own chin? I don't think he's ever been in trouble for spitting at people, to my knowledge. Yelling at referees is more his style
