Poor try.

I've got a negative opinion of loads of City players and regularly comment on how players like Navas, Bravo, Caballero, Fernando, Delph, Bony etc aren't good enough. I'm not happy clapper.

But Fernandinho is a class player and criminally underrated. The season before last he was doing two people's job. Last season he started off brilliantly when playing consistently at the base of midfield in a 433.

In mid-season hen we started changing shape in every single game, his form went downhill, like most of the side did. Towards the end of the season he was being shunted all over the place, playing in all sorts of positions, and he always did his best.

But at the base of midfield in a 433 his positioning was excellent and his use of the ball was good. Towards the end of the season, Yaya's use of the ball was far better and he deserved to start there. But Yaya is still one of the best midfielders in Europe in possession.

He's a great player to have in the squad and I'm happy to have him.

No it wasn't. His positioning is appalling. He's fine with a body behind him. He's not when he's the last line.

If I'm being honest, off the field issues aside, if I had a choice to make signing this lad or Walker based purely on football reasons, I'd rather go for him.

Attitude aside he's 3 years younger than walker and fuck levy. £40-£50m is a lot to pay for a fullback who is fairly decent but 27 years old already.
 
How often is AFCON? That would be my only real concern with signing Aurier, although I think he's only linked to get it over the line with Walker.
