Player thread: Fernando (2014/15)

[Deleted member 58678]

Looks like a player a bottom half team would buy to improve their midfield and push them up to mid table or just in the top half.

He's a £12m player playing like a £12m player.

He was part of a midfield that completely nullified any threat from Chelsea

Its also his first season in a new team, league and country.

When will some of our fans give players a chance?

When I saw this topic I thought I'd find a load of I take it all back comments. City spent a lot of time surrounding the Chelsea box, and Chelsea tactics were to counter attack us. Fernando was brilliant at breaking their initial attacks down. MOM performance.

The octopus found his legs today ... Excellent

Fuck me you`re easily pleased.

Not at all oakie, just doesn't take me 60 odd years to see a player (:

As usual with bluemoon, a fair few with egg on the face to come

I'm sure people think that players of his ilk just rack up and wallop, he's claude makelele.....

They never learn

Yesterday, he is the reason why we dominated so much. Picked up nearly every 2nd ball.
recycled and set us on the attack. Nothing flashy, so doesn't get noticed. But fuck me, god help
him if he ever does anything iffy again. Which he will, nobody's perfect.

Played well yesterday...the odd dodgy pass but was really solid.

In europe id love to see a midfield 3 of him yaya and ferd along with silva, nasri and aguero.

As someone said and I fully agree, he's a £12m player playing as such. He had a decent game yesterday and deserves credit. He breaks u play very well when playing well.

FFP restrictions are the reason he's here. We took a punt on a decent player at a relative fee. A fee we had. He may turn out great, my thoughts are, he won't, but he will still be worth £12 m in a years time if we decide to sell.

We need a top level £30m centre mid quickly in my opinion and I wouldn't mind betting that's our priority this summer.

I don't think Fernando is top top level, he'd be a decent squad man, in hindsight we should have taken Song on loan, but Fernando is decent player, not great but is worth £12m, and he will be for a good while.

We need better to advance, I think we will see better in the summer.

Well said - fair and balanced view.

as a 4th choice option and/or specialist DM in a 433 (that is ocassionally employed) he is excellent

but as third choice CM its poor on our part. we need another dinho level player
