The Roma match has convinced me...

As good as Denayer, Lopes and Kelechi were, I'm still most impressed by Garcia. He's 17. SEVENTEEN! And has been playing against seasoned pros and looking the part. Boy has unbelievable talent.

It's hard to argue with that. It was wonderful watching the master (Merlin) and his artful apprentice (Garcia) weaving their magic in the first half.

Of the ones you mentioned each brings something different. Kelechi is astonishingly confident and played a beautiful ball for Sterlings goal. Denayer looks like he could come from Jamaica, he is that cool. Lopes in my opinion needs to learn to sustain his performance during a game, although his skill level is excellent and he almost scored a cracker of a goal. I enjoyed Barkers performance. He showed some quality touches, but I would like to see him work harder off the ball. This of course will come with experience. I also thought Horsfield did very well at right back.

Overall the future is indeed very exciting.

I must say I do agree. We can sign Pogba, Messi and Maradona but if we don't learn to take set pieces seriously we will miss out on so many points.

I'm more worried about defending them

denayer looks the most ready to me the others might need some more time to develop

 

[Chev Chelios]

Lopez played well

And factor in that at pretty much every age group we are either winning, or coming close to winning the league... the future is City's

said this about garcia the first time i saw him.

 

[taleofbluehalves]

Kelechi and Denayer definitely ready. Lopez, Garcia, Angelino and Maffeo will play a part I think.

They reminded me off the chuckle brothers

.....that joe hart should take more penalties :D

I'm singing Super Joey Hart in my living room. Two saves and a goal lol whilst the scum's keeper wants to do a runner!

This lad Garcia is the real deal. Have only watched him for 45 minutes but I was stunned to hear he was 17?

He drops into space without thinking and always looked for the return. Reminded me of Moutinho.

Sometimes you just know, same goes for Kelechi and Denayer.
