It will be the end of the world if we dont get a world class striker. We missed out on Van persie and the Rags got the title. If AGAIN.... THE POWERS THAT BE DONT FUCKING WAKE UP AND SHAPE UP ,AND PAY UP, it will happen again and i can assure you it will feel like the end of the world.Pellegrini59 said:onceabluealways said:MSP said: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
That's not the way it works, though. You can't just sneak up and sign someone when nobodies looking. You have to go through the agents. The agent is usually the first person to ring Madrid et al and inform them that City have made a bid. This is to start a bidding war. The player and the agent always get a better deal from this, the more clubs that are interested the more cash gets thrown into the mix.
The only occasion when a club can snap up a player without competition is when the player's agent contacts the buying club direct and says he wants to sign for you. Everything else is a circus.
We have addressed two important areas of our squad, back up and competition for Yaya with Fernandinho and width/pace/delivery with Navas. Another season with Aguero, Tevez, Dzeko and Guidetti is hardly the end of the world, like!

Hello! Greetings from Malaga! I support Malaga all my life, I go to many many games. Pellegrini is the BEST manager we have ever had. He is loved here. And I think you will love him also!
Isco is very good but not consistent over the length of a season. Isco will not win you the league. Do not worry. Let Isco go to Madrid and sit on their bench. David Silva under Pellegrini will be much better!
Good luck and best wishes from Malaga. Many here hope Man City win the league! I think you will! :D
Was posted on Facebook, sad if we didnt get Isco but life goes on.

I think he's right about Isco's consistency. I watched Malaga's last 3 games and couldn't get why we were in for him. Then along came the U-21s
I don't think you can expect a player of his age to be consistent, but the point regarding next season is right. He wouldn't add much. It would be too soon.
