I struggle to see any rationale for this transfer especially as he can't be a panic buy to address our current injury problem at top (since he'll return from the Africa Cup of Nations after all our strikers are back from injury). He'd be surplus to requirements and won't add anything to the team - even if we sell Dzeko in the summer to make way for him it would still be a strange transfer.

What a player this guy is and what an impact he can have on both our team and rivals.
Wanted this guy for 12 months, ever since he bullied Komps at their place last season.
Seriously, a bit like the clowns who never considered Lampard world class, until they saw him at close quarters, this fella will be a real eye-opener.
Post of the day Tolm..
Do you think we will get him ?
I have thought for a couple of weeks it was on.
The lad doesn't need much convincing and City and Swansea have plenty of time to conclude.

Hopefully we don't get overrun in midfield, as it was the case with playing 2 up top sometimes last season and start of this season.uwe rosler 28 said:aguerooo93 said:Why are we going to spend 25-30m on someone who wouldn't even make our first team?

He'll be first choice partner for aguero!

Don't suppose there is any chance of people not going on about ACON?

What do you mean even if we sell Dzeko it would be a strange transfer? Imagine him on his own with the likes of toure or silva behind him or aguero partnered with him. He is strong, powerful and has good hold up play and can use the ball with his feet nearly as good as Aguero
