Leighton Baines (& definitely not Isco)

I just imagine the one or two big Leighton James fans out there being so disappointed when they see this thread.

Haha, well that too.

Not anything more since yesterday. Just a guy says he met his bro round the place Frank is from and his bro says he still wants City. Rumour from that HugoTheInsider guy that we're still negotiating and there's still the chance for another saga twist. Seems his dad has forced the move with Madrid at the moment for his own gain, which would be the reason for us dropping out (if we have).

If our board wants to be matey with Madrid I can't see us embarrassing them on the world stage now if we can get Isco. However, they've pretty much done that to us so I say we should top it and sign Isco from under their noses.

Cheers mate. Would be amazing if we could turn it around at this stage, can't see it though

Can't agree with Baines' defensive ability. He's not shite but he sure ain't that good. His attacking play for a defender is the best in the league imo. But that;s why he suffers defensively. Too many times caught out up field.

So wait...does it qualify as a clarkie if you post about Baines in the Baines thread? I'm confused.

I simply can't see us humiliating Madrid like that. The option may be there however I don't think we're ballsy enough to take it.
