Isco

[xzbit04]

I think at the end of the day we have to just throw John into the fire. We can't really keep playing "loan deal" this and that. At the end of the day we have to throw him into the fire. Hopefully he gets a solid run in the early FA Cup stages along side Aguero/Tevez.

This^^^^

Considering John's been out of the game for a very long time, I think a end-of-the-season long loan deal would be beneficial to all parties.
Four, five months of competitive play, a full pre-season with us next summer and then we'll see just what he's made of.

Isco - Malaga Attacking Midfielder

Why do we show up on this guy's career stats on his Wikipedia page?

Does somebody at Wikipedia know something we don't?

It's been there since 9th November...Wikipedia are usually pretty quick to remove anything that is complete bullshit!

Mario out,promote guidetti , bring in isco job done

And Benat too.with both benat and isco this team will be perfect

 

[marca_uk]

Mario out & Guidetti in? Not sure about that!

Mario may be a loose cannon, but he is a far better player than Guidetti!

This needs to be done, and fast. The price isn't going down anytime soon. Isco in January would be delightful.

Considering how peripheral Mario has been for a long time now, cashing in (using the money to invest in areas that really need strengthening) and allowing one of our hungry and talented young players to develop in the first team - less talented or not - wouldn't be a bad move. The fourth striker doesn't need to be a world beater, most clubs don't even have a fourth striker of note.

I just YouTubed this guy "Isco" wow he's great I see what ya mena about similar to Hazard... He's a bit like a Carzola/Hazard mongrel

Reminds me of a young Iniesta. Great passing range with players around him that aren't as intelligent. In our group of world class attackers he'd really be exceptional.

He very well could be. BUT.... we he get the required game time in order for him to develop further here with us?

We have regularly seen Silva, Nasri and Yaya playing when they could do with a rest, or looked injured, Isco would get plenty of game time and starts

I hope so. Young gifted players must feel they come here with a good chance at getting some real game time. If not, it will become harder and harder to lure any of them here in the future.

I think that if he will join us he will accept to play in a rotated-system like ours

Willian would be better option for us he has pace and is more direct some thing we lack.

First day of January, I hope we slap down the buyout price for this kid and Benat.

Come on, City, let's go back to the old days of no agony transfers!

 

[LoveCity]

We must have a good relationship with Malaga considering they have Santa Cruz on loan with us no doubt paying most of his wages! Might give us a little edge in getting Isco if we go for him.

I would have thought that letting them have RSC would make them intensely hate us (sorry only messing)

Shame it doesn't look like we'll be spending in January, would have loved Isco in the team.

I'm 200% sure we will spend in Jan even if mancini say he don't want players

 

[Ronnie the Rep]

It's a done deal ;-)
