Ok I'll play - Siqueira at Atletico, Rodriquez at Wolfsburg, Alaba at Bayern, Alba at Barca - there's four definitely better both defensively and attacking wise and I haven't even thought of Real Madrid or for closer to home Baines at Everton isn't bad. If I had a choice it would be Alaba first followed by Rodriquez both 22 and would be an upgrade of your hero ha!

Well done. 4 who are better indeed. Rodriquez broke through not too long ago. Let's see if he can keep it up.
And that's it really. Some will be equal. In the PL none. Baines comes closest and maybe if Shaw would be able to continue the way he started this season. But definitely not better.
So that ranges Kolarov very high up the ladder. And still you and many others moan. We can't have the best 11 in every position.

Look carefully at my previous posts I am not moaning about him, just stating facts over his deficiencies - At the actual game I was cheering along all the team with everyone around me we had such a superb second half and it was a fantastic CL night - we've not had too many have we. I cannot understand why there are those who get ultra defensive over certain players. I like many others just want us to progress as a team. Please do not accuse me of moaning about a particular player when that is simply not true.

I apologize. But it's too easy to point out weaknesses when every player worldwide has them. Kolarov gets a lot of stick he doesn't deserve. And imo he so far has a very good season. Not perfect but who has. And he is way ahead of Clichy. That'll do for me.

Fair enough - I do agree that there is not another player in the squad capable of constantly pushing him. Let's hope we go on a good run now whoever is in the team. Have a good week and a few Amstells!
 
48th best player in Europe in 2015 according to whoscored.com who's doing a countdown on sky. 7.426/10 average rating. Only Silva and Kompany ahead of him from City. People will still have you believe he's the worst player we've ever signed though.

Thought Aleks played quite well on Monday night. Several decent interceptions!

Rodriguez is overrated. So is Alaba for that matter. But yes, Alaba is better. Bernat will be an even better fit than Alaba. Alaba's ball skills are pretty iffy for a Bayern player. Bernat is the LB we want. Rodriguez is like Kolarov. Good on dead balls, but a pretty average all round footballer. Don't know why he is rated so highly by many. I guess the goals and assists have blinded many to his general play.

If I were to rank my top 5 fits for City:
Marcelo
Bernat
Alex Sandro
Gaya

Azpiculetta
Orban

The first 4 include the 4 best footballers who happen to be leftbacks. The final 2 are defensive juggernaut who sometimes play LB (I.e Zabaleta's of the left side)

Yes, I know Alaba and Alba are superior athletes compared to the above. But I believe these guys are better fits for us. Alba I can see. Alaba on the other hand will disappoint if he leaves Bayern. He is the classical product of the system.

Rodriguez is simply an inferior footballer, Siqueira too.
