Striker handouts - Sorry Bobby I don't agree with you

This has nothing to do with the FFPR. It's about Mancini being a suspect man manager.

I expect Carlos and De Jong to be the next out the door come the summer.

Maybe Vinny as well.

Send 'em all out on loan so Bobby can bring in 25 nodding dogs...

Oh my, I presume you're on a wind-up?

Jo obviously isn't better than Jo, sorry my grammar isn't up to your standards...

Jo is definitely better than RSC, not only that but younger and gives his 100%, keep in mind as someone said neither are good enough to start but if your name isn't Mark Hughes and you list RSC before Jo on your team-sheet than you shouldn't watch football anymore.

I mean Jo actually got on the scoresheet in the Cup and the Europa League, can't remember the last time RSC scored a goal, or was mentioned in a training report.


No way RSC was worthy of a starting slot in the City side but he was definitely worthy of a subs role if we wanted to change the style of play or even just get desperate and lump the ball in late in a game.
But there is no doubt at all imo that he was a better option than Jo who should have been at best 5th choice as striker.

Half joking....

Good luck to Ade....

As long as Balo comes back fit we'll be fine....

Not a big Bobby fan?

De Jong isn't going anywhere, Tevez probably is but in all honestly whilst he is a fantastic player I suspect he causes a fair few problems that don't need to be caused.

What is wrong with the manager wanting players who do as instructed? Surely the aim in management is to get your staff to perform as instructed? If you have a loose cannon then you have to get rid.
 
I don't see United worried about their front options.

If Berbatov gets injured, they only have fat neck and a mexican waiter.


We are fine with Dzeko, Tevez and Balo, certainly supplemented by Silva and Johnson.

Ade and Santa Cruz have stolen a living from us for months, certainly Ade.

Decided when he could be arsed, both on and off the pitch.

He'll no doubt be a success at Madrid, where he has finally found a club bigger than his ego.

All good news when it comes to getting back decent monies. Santa Cruz has spent his entire career plodding to make money.

I see what you're saying TH....but the key is going to be Balo's fitness.
 
Balo's fitness is my concern too. We have no idea when he's going to be back in the first team and playing to his best.

At the monent, we don't have Tevez, Dzeko and Balo, we have Tevez, Dzeko and Jo.

Competing on three fronts with just those three is a risk, considering the importance of ensuring a Champions League place this season.

Totally...doomsday scenario would be an injury to Carlos IMO.

But Balo's knee is a worry - you've got to think though that the club must have good vibrations about his rehab to let Ade go...

Balo hasn't been truly fit since he arrived. A truly salivating prospect, that, but all the same, there are very few strikers available of such quality, not to mention price, who would willingly sign to make fourth in the pecking order, unless we go for youth.

The manager clearly trusts Jo, for whatever reasons, to fill a whole, when required.

Even if Balo does not get the all clear, even if Tevez or Dzeko get injured, we still can go 4-5-1.

All three injured at the same time?, desperately fooking unlucky!
