Isco

[Nascent Blues]

They will be defended by most on here regardless. In "Txiki" we trust bollocks.

They've already signed 2 top players.

Who have Man Utd signed?

We have signed two players who will complement our side. They are however not Grade 1 players like Kun, Silva, Yaya, Tevez and Kompany.

IMO it's not about signing Grade 1 players, it's about signing players that will make City a Grade 1 team.

Not one of our rivals has made as many key signings as us yet. United have 0 (just a Uruguyan kid), Arsenal have 0, Chelsea have 1, Spurs have 0 (although Paulinho could be close). So even with the Isco setback, we're still ahead of the pack...

Man Utd look set to get Thiago Alcantara , Arsenal looking likely to get Higuain. 2 brilliant players and if you consider who they've been linked with, we are certainly behind that pack.

Don't forget we started a step behind scum as they have RVP.

And for all you know we could be 'set to' sign a big name. The Thiago thing may take a while if it goes through at all, Barca are trying hard to keep him. BTW I'd bet money on Fernandinho having a bigger instant impact than Thiago. He is experienced and proven in the Champions League. Just not a 'flavour of the month' Spaniard... Oliver Torres and Sergi Samper could be as good as Thiago in a couple of years.

It has nothing to do with that, its about how we lose out on them if we are to believe in the papers. And yes we have signed two great players but we will also lose our best player, Tevez so havent significently improved more than central midfield. What city need is new players coming in and bring some fire back to the squad some nye hunger.

Tevez was'nt even in the best 5 players last season

Tevez was one of our best players last season,top 3 at least!

Isco is obviously one that might be great for future and in that part I'd be delighted if he was signed.

I do, however, have problems with fact that nowadays players for the future are being priced as players for today. And if that is the reason why he is not coming (obviously with fact that Madrid are barely not attractive club to sign for) I'm fine with that.

ISCO is not a player for the future - he is good enough to play in most teams now - he is the star player for Malaga who got robbed against Dortmund in CL QF so is well capable of playing at the top level.

What he also has is the POTENTIAL to be one of the best players around on the planet.

This is exactly the same as Hazard - I'm not flapping but I believe these are both players that we could have bought and sold 3 / 4 years later and made money - IMHO we let both of these players slip through our fingers due to c*ck ups - Both should have been done and dusted before other clubs showed their hands. Thats if it was possible of course as i only have opinion not all the facts

no body has cocked up ,it looks like he had a choice between madrid and city ,he chose real,why does there have to be a scapegoat,i f****ing dispare

Could be to do with the timing of RM intervention whilst we havent got a concrete option/ offer for Tevez. IMO a Tevez deal needs to be in place for us to increase our offer as I see Isco as his replacement.

Fernandinho is.

Odds mean nothing, and if they did, I'd bet more on Isco coming to us that United getting Thiago. You get nowt for coming second. We are therefore ahead of the pack - even though being ahead means absolutely nothing until the window is shut.

Fernandinho is as good as anyone in midfield

Being "linked" with and "signing"......where should I start....

Ah finally. I was wondering when a video will be released for this whatever you want to call it about Isco.
