Scott Parker

Still can't believe people actually crave these really shit Mark Hughes like signings. He's no where near as good as Barry or Milner. We want nasri and have de Jong, silva and yaya who are world class to accommodate plus aj and most likely another wide player to come in.

In no way is this guy good enough for city even as a squad player. He wasn't even good enough in his prime at Chelsea let alone now.

What about when they get injured?
 
We will sign someone better than Parker as cover IMO. We might still get nasri and probably another midfield player as well.

How much cover do you want ?

It's pointless signing players for 1 or 2 seasons who are not really good enough even for that time frame. I would have thought signings like Bellamy, bridge and rsc would have shown this ?
 
1. People are making too much of Vieira's number of appearances last year. A decent proportion of that was the last 10 mins purely for his aerial prowess. Against Stoke for example. Statistically he was by far our most effective player in the air. So in this respect Parker is not a replacement.

2. Ok we might look a bit short in CM, but the player we are missing is a creator. Someone a bit different to what we've already got, like Lucho Gonzalez or a Xabi Alonso type player. Not another James Milner.

3. Having said all that, on loan for a year he would be a reasonable signing as cover. Especially considering the ACN is in Jan
 
we should go for Moussa Sissoko the new Vieira!

He's great on FM10
 
I know this will produce a few laughs and gnashing of teeth but give me Joey Barton any day over Scotty Parker!
