Its time for John to get a chance, whenever he player where ever he plays he scores.

I think while his scoring record has been excellent since he came back (4 goals in 3 games), Mancini and co. do not want to rush him into anything. I think the last three (Swansea, Reading and Norwich) fixtures of the season, more of a youthful squad (which hopefully includes Guidetti) will be played granted a second place spot is more or less secured.

Out of all the youngsters at City, Guidetti is certainly and undeniably the one with the most potential. Really can't wait to see him play for the senior side.

Get him in the squad asap, we NEED him in the squad, given Aguero is crocked and Dzeko in poor form

I want the club to start playing him ffs he is wasted playing for the EDS

We all do but we don't know what level of fitness he is at. He's just missed a few weeks again after his original comeback, it's not unrealistic to think he is still some way off 100% match fitness. And think about it, if a 50% fit Guidetti plays for the first team and fails to impress, that jeopardises his future chances, whereas a 100% fit Guidetti would have a better chance of impressing and convincing Mancini (if Mancini is calling the shots on squad stucture) he should be a weekly member of the matchday 18.

According OS, Guidetti played all 90 minutes.

So I don´t believe he need much time to play for the first team.

EDS´next game will be against Crystal on March 29, one day before Newcastle on Etihad.

When I have seen him play this year his fitness hasn't been close to good enough and he would have really struggled.maybe it's a lot better now I don't know but I agree to throw him in too soon could be counter productive.

Can anybody else believe that Guidetti made his one and only first-team appearance two and a half years ago this week?

Is it just me who thinks that's an incredibly long time, particularly considering I was reasonably impressed with him in that game (best of a bad bunch at least).

I know youth football is not all about results but i can't believe with all the supposed millions that has been spent on talented players we are doing so badly in results. City could end near the bottom of the bottom group.

yeh, when you consider all the money that seems to be invested into it the team ain't doing fantastic and not too many players coming through to the first team.
