Pep want's to sell Gustavo as well. We need to bring him in, he's 3 times the player Garcia is, he reinforces one of our weak spots and since Bayern are fire selling him, he won't be too expensive.

We could have the Brazilian midfield at City this season.

he would expect to play, we already have yaya, fernandinho, barry and rodwell. We dont need him

I think we do. I think we still need a good holding midfielder and we don't have one. Garcia sucks, Barry is old and is flirting with teams. Plus at Bayern last season he was Martinez replacement and didn't seem to have a problem coming on 5 minutes before the end of the game.
 
Actually, I do feel we could use a player like Gustavo. He is very disciplined and better than Garcia and Barry for breaking up play and protecting the back four. A really high quality pure holding midfield is one thing the squad lacks unless Garcia surprises us in the DM role. But there is no chance of that happening this summer because there's no way we'll sell both Barry and Garcia, which is essentially what we'd have to do. Rodwell, Fernandinho and Yaya all have box-to-box tendencies which is why the option of a pure destroyer like Gustavo would be useful and offer us more options. A midfield three of Gustavo/Yaya/Fernandinho (or Rodwell) would be immense if we ever needed to pack the midfield.

That's been my thought. We really need a quality midfielder. Maybe we could still sell Garcia to some Italian team. I think they are still some people/teams that rate him.
