Isco

[cityman14364]

my 1st post...
What a saga this is turning out to be!
We've had all the emotions ( often on the same page!) it's been very revealing, and not to mention entertaining!
Personally, I've resigned myself to the fact that he's going to Madrid, as Cavani said, when Madrid come knocking, you take notice!
I think our main target should be a striker, since Mario left we haven't replaced him, and with Aguero getting injured it left us underpowered upfront last season.
If Manny can get Nasri playing to the top of his game regularly, I don't think missing out on Isco will be such an issue, Navas and Fenandinho were the must have transfers, Isco would have been the icing on the cake! I know it's not over until Perez is shouting it from the rooftops, but I'm far, far more optimistic about next season now, if Isco comes, great! if not, well, we move on!

1st post and a good one

It's hard to say how long it will take Isco to fulfil his potential. I suspect you are right, in terms of next season a striker is more important - but maybe we can get both.

It's very exciting to be so close to signing Isco as I think in 2-3 seasons, if he plays regularly he could be one of the top 5 players in Europe. He's the cream of the young Spanish players which is no secret

Maybe he will go to Real Madrid but at the moment I think it's still up in the air. if a deal can be done which will benefit City (taking all into account) then I am sure it will be done

marvin you cant say positive things like that,the flappers need their flappety flap time,like quoting an hernandez fucking tweet all night

Here's an idea, and it's pretty crazy, but maybe City havent met the release clause as they don't think it's worth spending that much money on an area of the team that doesn't need strengthening, and might prefer to spend it elsewhere now that the team adheres to FFP rules


Crazy, I know.

Not crazy at all, or perhaps they don't think he is worth that much, it's hard getting some people to understand, if they want a player they will pay the price, but they will not overpay, far to many people playing fantasy football

CEASE THIS MAKING SENSE FAD AND START FLAPPING!!

@RafaelH117 Its bizarre,that's why I think there is more to come. I want this guy at City more than anyone.

Rafael Hernández Rafael Hernández ‏@RafaelH117 5m

@coolandthegangs Yes, what I can guarantee is that Isco hasn't sign with RMA yet, only agreed terms and signing without a counter bid.

Rafael Hernández ‏@RafaelH117 31m

@adlan_suzanne Nope, I said he was set to join after the U21s, MCFC lowered the bid, Real Madrid took their chances, that's what I said.


@adlan_suzanne Still, MCFC can still sign Isco, but club unwilling to pay the release clause. Málaga Owner favors selling the player to other spanish club.

If this is true then it makes you wonder what the f**k City are playing at.

we should offer them suarez, guidetti on loan like madrid are offering to sweeten the deal.

Pay the clause.

He has the tools but Silva injury free and in his pomp is up there pushing Xavi and Iniesta, he is simply sublime. Isco will do well to 'better' him.

Ha ha laughable Silva was fuckin garbage last year

He certainly wasn't on form or anywhere near it. He was burned out, played out of position (his best is through the middle rather than to the left). The season before I base my judgement as that's the player he is imho.

Garbage? Bit harsh, he buys and sells anyone over the road ;)

Yeah he is better than there players but last year he was awful played well at Arsenal away last year

Makes you wonder why the fuck we happily splashed a reported 40m € on Fernandinho but refuse to cough up the money for Isco

 

[conormcfc]

But he IS better than Nasri. Hence Madrid wanting to pay £30m for him.

How is he?

Because of a single half decent season? Because he did well at the under 21 tournament? Romeu at Chelsea was great at youth level, look at how he's developed at Chelsea since coming here.

Nasri is miles more proven at the moment.

No he wasn't awful. Define awful please!

Would it be allowed or legal or whatever for Malaga to accept a fee from Madrid but refuse the same fee from us and demand higher, out of interest.

Guess it wouldn't be allowed in general retail (which I know this is nothing like)
