Isco

From gulf news- its just the hope to complete that is a bit disconcerting

Manchester: Manchester City hope to complete a £21 million (Dh119 million) deal for Malaga midfielder Isco this weekend.
There were fears Real Madrid could hijack the transfer, and City were said to have grown increasingly concerned that the player seemed undecided.
But the 21-year-old looks to have chosen Manchester and indicated on Thursday that a deal could be tied up soon. “I prefer not to comment about my future but the matter could be closed this Sunday,” Isco said.
The chance to work with new City boss Manuel Pellegrini, his coach at Malaga for the last two years, was a deciding factor in Isco’s decision.
So too was his belief that he would have a greater chance of first-team football at City rather than Madrid, where Mesut Ozil, Luka Modric, Kaka and Angel Di Maria would be competition. Malaga gave permission for him to speak to City’s director of football Txiki Begiristain, who persuaded Isco to move the Premier League.

Friday night and the flappers are still out..

I am convinced he is coming to city.

What happened to this pact we had with Madrid.

You figure that the terms of the deal would leak out if he had agreed with Madrid. All I've seen is some random Real fan boys leak out stuff, and these guys didn't seem credible at all.

Maybe we know that the isco deal can be tied up quickly than the cavani one.So we have turned most our attention to isco while also waiting in the wings for Cavani.

It sends a message to Cavani and Napoli. We won`t enter into an auction with a stupid opening bid as set by the Napoli chairman. If you want to sell him, and he wants to come it will be when/if we say so. And until ADL and Napoli see sense we are out.
