should city sell de jong?

[birchwoodgingerste]

No way, he's just fallen behind Barry and Milner in the pecking order. If we did sell him then had to go without either Barry or Milner for half a dozen games or more... well you can imagine what the reaction would be.

I know he hasn't played at centre back since HSV, and even then it was only to cover and injury crisis, but even with his lack of height I'd prefer him alongside Lescott than Savic at the moment.

centre back pmsl!

He's played there for Ajax, HSV and Holland but it was more to highlight my lack of faith in Savic than De Jong's aerial prowess.

i understand your thinking just trying to picture him marking peter crouch!

Reminded me of this PMSL

I know he's played right back but centre half............pull the other one.

I think he offers us great options when we want to change the style of play.
If we are winning and want to calm a game down he is still one of the best imo.

I don't want to see him go but i understand if he does.

He's the same height as Mascherano but, again, I'll quantity my post as being tongue-in-cheek at my lack of faith in Savic rather than any ability De Jong may or may not have in that position.

Playing deep and inviting teams on isn't calming a game down, we payed 3 times what he was worth and he's not good enough for a top 3 team playing expansive football.
