Blackburn's best player today, again. He won't be there next season and maybe not even in January. Imagine him in City's back line, Richards, Kompany, Samba, Lescott, they'd be like the bloody Himalayas.

Samba kept blackburn at 0-0 at the half. he was easily their best player.
sorry to see such a skilled player on such a shite team that will more than likely be relegated.
I'm not really a City fan. I'm just here for attention.

I half thought Arsenal would go for him in the summer, but they went for the lanky German instead.

He reminds me of SWP. Very tricky and deceptive, but will only shine being the main threat in a small side.
Just my opinion/.
Tracking back is overrated.

I don't think Samba is for us but he had a great game. Hoillet looks a cracking player too. I've seen BB three times this season and these two stick out like sore thumbs. By far their best players.
Attack the argument of the person, not the person of the argument- except Carl.

Same, I think if we looked at the bench today after Aguero went off and if we needed to replace Johnson it would have been a major reshuffle needed with Dzeko coming on, or Milner moving wide right and de Jong coming on. Could use a like for like player for our wide areas in midfield.

I guess his admirers on here will be disappointed,
Wantaway Blackburn star Christopher Samba looks set to get his wish with a move to Anzhi Makhachkala, according to sources in Russia.The transfer window in Russia does not close until Friday, meaning their clubs can still make moves.
Now a number of Russian sources are claiming that big-spending Anzhi, who now have Guus Hiddink in charge, have agreed a £7.5million deal with Blackburn for the 27-year-old.
Reports are even suggesting that a three-year deal for the Congolese stopper has been agreed, and only a medical is needed for him to complete the move.
Samba, who has only played for Blackburn once in 2012, has demanded a move away from the club but Rovers have thus far stood firm, insisting he was not for sale.
The giant central defender, who was targeted by a number of Premier League clubs in January, joined Blackburn from Hertha Berlin in 2006.

Spot on. My mate who's a season ticket holder at Rovers reckons he'll be a big name at a mid-table club but won't make it at the highest level.

As someone once said of Stan the Man - "he can trap a ball further than he can kick it". Samba falls into this category. Hope he enjoys snowy, racist Russia!

Not for me, I'm afraid.
I've no time for him at all and I just think he's a pile of manure masquerading as a carthorse.
He could make George Heslop look like a ball playing 'libero'.
