Isco alternatives*

[Ted Hughes]

I'd love Isco but as per the thread lets assume we need to find someone else, then my preference would be to go for a proper wideman to balance out the left hand side (with Navas on the right).

Obv bale first choice, but with his silly price tag then maybe:
Perotti from Sevilla
Lamela (?) from Roma
[highlight]Elia[/highlight] the bloke who destroyed us when at hamburg
Di Maria - cunt but good
I'm struggling for quality LHS wingers who aren't already at big clubs

...thought id check him out...at werder bremen now but i think theyd let him go..he was suspended by the club for speeding offences so hed fit right in ;-)... pace to burn..canplay wide or up front...i suppose some would class it as an underwhelming signing but its not a bad shout there Michael

Anyone know how he's been playing ? I have not really kept an eye on him, been looking at others, but I thought he had something when I saw him v City & on the few occasions I've taken notice of him since, he's looked dangerous on the whole.

A player I think City should take an interest in, is Muniain. He's not looked the same since halfway through the '11 '12 season, but he's only turned 20 in December.

He has just about all the skils needed as well as good pace & a good engine. He's not pulling up trees right now but it wouldn't take much to get him back on track & for him to become the star of the next Spain U21 side. I'd like us to gamble before everyone else.

Of course, when signing players that young, it has to be balanced out by the players we already have in our youth teams. If Txiki & Vieira think we have similar coming through, then there is little point signing 20 year olds.

He is back in Germany at Werder, terrible-terrible spell.

And beside that, he was suspended after drinking and then went speeding with Arnautovici.

So, hell no.

Sorry dave not save ( fucking predictor text)

all well and good..but if youd asked him outright this question to begin with youd have saved yrself and me a post or two and not clogged up this fucking thread

I think you'll find that it's you who's distracting from a very pertinent thread but, if it helps get you back on topic, go back a reread because you'll find that I did ask him outright but you jumped in as if he wasn't capable of responding to my question (which was stupidly condescending towards the guy). You then went a bit weird when I straightened you out. Ergo; it's you clogging up the thread so get real and drop the subject or at least don't complain when you act daft and people put you right.

[Avalon]

Iker Muniain, Gerard Deulofeu, Gokhan Tore, Juan Iturbe, Stephan el Shaarawy, Lucas Ocampos, there's a few players I can think of.

[Clowncrete]

Christian Eriksen.

A good suggestion - young and very impressive, scores a lot from midfield but would he make the step from the dutch league to the premiership? I think he might but he looks happy at Ajax and I doubt that he'd want to move.

He said 2 months back that he wanted to move and was "open" to a move to City.

If it helps guys ( not exactly knowing were all you guys are from but I could not be any more English and more dedicated to my 1 love and local blues but yeah I'd admit my English has or never will be great, I'm more of a maths lad walked it threw my time in education

Don't worry about Herb...he's just the forum cunt

Don't worry about ant from london he's just a wanna-be hard lad acting the foul-mouthed bit part player in a little bunch of racists known locally as the blue-klux-klan.
He can offer an occasional gem but they're usually flavoured with a derogative term towards the disabled with a smear of jingoism thrown in.

[ant london]

....as I was saying. Cunt

[Derka]

How about that brazilian Bernard. Would probably not cost more than 15m.

Wow ant . . you're just so impressive - we're all in awe of your childish racist drivel.

PS. And you're always saying 'cunt' must be just about your favourite word . . make you feel good saying it does it? You sad arse.

Can we please get back on topic guys.Am I wrong in thinking that Christian Eriksen was another player who previously stated that City was'nt a big enough club for him to even consider joining?

[Avalon]

Brazilian players always look impressive in their league, but it's when they get out of their league and face tougher tackles and competition their quality really shows (or not).
I mean, look at Jo, Hulk and Vagner Love. Robinho did well in Spain and Italy where the tackles don't come very often, but in the PL? Robinho had one good season and then did nothing.

There's Bernard, there's Leandro and Leandro Damião and Ganso. All highly rated Brazilian players. Will they cut it outside their domestic leagues? I dunno.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see them.

Yes, that is how I remember it. He's nowhere near isco's class anyway, imo.

You're all mouth you shit stained coward - hard as you like from behind your pc but you've steadfastly refused to meet me to discuss your problem. You constantly ruin threads by launching in with your juvenile abuse but you won't back it up because you've got nothing to back it up with have you? You use abuse instead of camaraderie and you ruin this forum for the decent posters - you should either get your courage together and man-up for a change or shut up and let us football fans get on with thread.

To be honest Herb. you couldn't actually be much more wrong.

Then why does the sick shit regularly launch in with the needless abuse - can't he just keep his foul-mouthed off-topic comments to himself and let everyone get on with what we come on here to do?
