Wow. You're really using one goal(which to be fair was a good goal.) as your reasoning as to why Maicon was better than Micah or Zaba. Even when Maicon was at Inter he managed to get away with his shite defending because either Pandev or Etoo would be helping him out.
No. I'm using it as an example to show what he still has to offer going forward. Even in the little time he was on the pitch for us you can see that he's a more gifted attacking player than any of our other fullbacks. He could've been a valuable asset to break down banks of 10, but we badly misused him.

Find me another fullback in the prem with this technique:

To be fair that doesn't make him a good player!!! Danny Mills can score wonder goals like the one 18secs in does that mean he is quality?

Did Danny Mills keep Dani Alves out of the Brazil team for 6 years?

Did Danny Mills win a treble?

Was Danny Mills a world class player?

Which is why Dani Alves couldn't get him out of the Brazil team till the back end of 2011? He was class for Inter at the end of the season before we bought him, I remember him scoring this in the derby:

Would've offered us so much of what we didn't have against the park the bus brigade.

I'm not surprised someone would give us money for him. He's still a top player.

Completely disagree.

Ahhhh it must actually be Maicon, good luck in Italy mate!

In answer to the questions no but not good enough anymore and doesn't suit Prem as he can't defend!!

Building a good relationship with Roma by letting him go for free? I like the potential benefits of this move.
 
No surprises with Maicon not being part of our plans and even though he could a still be a useful squad player his wages are better spent in other areas of our team.

According to the Mail Roma have offered 4 million for him.

He was left at home when City flew out for their pre-season tour of South Africa and is now set to return to Italy after Roma tabled an offer in the region of £4m.

Mate you compared him to Mills, says everything about your in depth knowledge of the player.

His defending with us was fine. He seemed to keep Ronaldo pretty quiet for 75 minutes at the Bernebau before Zab came on and we conceded 2 down that side. Name me some goals that Maicon has been directly responsible for in his time here and I'll be inclined to debate this.
 
It would be a good move to get him off the wage bill, but he is still a good player

He did little for us last season because of injury, but remember he's 31. There are plenty of players eg Distin playing well beyond that in the Premiership

You have to qualify your critcism. He's clearly been a World Class player, and if he can get fit he will be a good signing for someone.
