Where would we fit him in? Nasri and Silva play in the exact same position plus we have the likes of Saurez and Rusnak coming through.CTID101 said:I have to say that I am very surprised that not only us but no one has seemingly put a bid in for this lad.
A huge talent and Malaga are on their arse it looks like.

He's better than Nasri in my opinion, Nasri generally plays a little deeper anyway. Isco would be cover for David Silva. You cannot have enough cover for David Silva and Isco is very much in the Silva mould. We've looked weak in our opening two fixtures with very little in the way of penetration. This was because Silva had a bad game against Southampton and was basically rested against Liverpool.
Im afraid we cannot just buy players for the sake of it. As much as i would like him, we dont have any vacancies for this lad. We have already got a First XI, we just need a few bits and bobs and we are reafy to rumbleCTID101 said:We cannot let this lad go to Spuds.
They have already bought very well and with Dembele on the horizon they are shaping up as a very good team unless AVB goes and blows it up again.

Having watched him I'm not impressed, tries to dribble a lot but doesn't keep the ball as close as Silva/Nasri, it often gets taken off him very easily. A money pit waiting for a club, mark my words, nowt godd will come of that lad!<br /><br />-- Wed Aug 29, 2012 1:18 am --<br /><br />Ovo said:Neil McNab said:No, his close control is nowhere near as good as people talk it up to be, I wouldn't offer any more than £3m for him from what I've seen.

You sir with the greatest of respect are a fool. That or quite a good fisher.
It makes no business sense at all, this guy will be worth peanuts in two years, Spurs are stretching it with an £8m punt on a player that really is not that talented.city91 said:The_Mo said:Im afraid we cannot just buy players for the sake of it.

It makes perfect sense to sign him even more so in a business sense. If we can sign him for anything under 20 mil he would be perfect and we would easily make a profit of him as well as him helping the team.

Starting XI as we speak of
---------Dzeko---------
Silva-----Tevez-----Nasri
------Yaya----Rodwell------
Clichy-Komp---Lesc--Zaba
------------Hart------------
Sub; Pantilimon, Kolo, Kolarov, Milner, Isco, Balotelli and De Jong.
That leaves the likes of Aguero, Richards and Barry who are injured atm but that team can easily rotate around when they are avaliable.
Factor in NDJ and Kolo can still yet leave but Nastasic is expected to join and Maicon is still a possibility.
That makes 21 players. Not a big squad.
Tevez City said:City don't need a player to rest Silva or compete with Nasri, they need a player who can be better than Silva & Nasri.
