No mate...When I was a kid, I followed everything football and knew everyone and how they played. Now I mainly concentrate on City, so my in depth knowledge of some continental big names can be minimal.
I use this forum to update my knowledge.
Quite genuine mate.
Sorry boss ! I thought you may have been taking the mick - but I'm not that sensitive really.. honest
Well, we were linked with him in the january window, he is a argentinian central/defensive minded midfielder who plays for real madrid.
A lot of people bemoaned that he appears lazy and doesn't track back enough for a central defensive midfielder, which was fair enough to be honest, but I have watched a few Real Madrid games lately and he has been getting starts, I've quite enjoyed what I have seen to be honest, and he would slot right into mancini's system - I dare say we missed out by not signing him in time
