Would Isco and yaya work in centre mid? Then have silva just in front and then a front 3 of sterling Aguero and hopefully kdb. Not sure how good defensively Isco is?

No chance him and yaya would play a midfield two in my opinion, pogba and kdb deals would be off if he came in then next year possibly bring in the world class proper cm we need and isco could move up with silva and stering then yaya(if he's still there) and pogba or anyone else would be the midfield.

Isco is more than capable of being in a midfield 2 with a player who does little to no defensive work - he did it for long stretches of last season playing next to Kroos in a 442.

However I think if we got Isco, we'd line up with a front 3 of Silva-Aguero-Sterling, and a midfield of Fernandinho-Yaya-Isco. Similar to how we played Fernando-Yaya-Garcia in preseason. It would be a fairly big improvement defensively on playing Silva in midfield and KDB in the front 3.
 
...think this ship sailed a long time ago....great player and would be a great signing for us but really cant see this happening...need to just go all in for De Bruyne...

Sport: City are just waiting for a nod from Real Madrid star Isco (23) to make an offer for the player. City would offer him a leading role.

A midfield 3 of offensively minded players like Isco, Merlin & Yaya' would see us totally over run, most weeks,by inferior opposition.

Still never mind the the balance of the team, as long as we get a crap terrace chant out of the deal eh

You've put words in my mouth there, not once did I suggest we should ever line up like that. Perhaps try reading my comment again.
 
He'd need to be mightily pissed off at Real to want to leave. Even then, it's unlikely he'd come here unless MP signed a contract extension.

Ok, Even if we had Yaya & Fernandinho as our two defensive DM's (Neither of whom is the greatest of tacklers), could you honestly see Silva & Isco working together as a pair, particularly when the opposition have the ball? (tracking back, et al).

I just think the two players are too similar to work with each other (not unlike Merlin & Nasri, who, in my view, we have never found a way to accomadate together in the same side)
