Welcome to Manchester!

I didn't actually want to sign him but here he is now so time to get behind him.
And surely this will now keep Fernando out of the team which is always a bonus!

Will City be dragged before a Scouse panel lead by Andy Burnham to explain our premature announcement of the signing. The Everton fans will be demanding we apologise. Or send them Bony as a gesture of goodwill.

Firstly it wasn't simply defenders as much as the support in front of them. They optically enhanced it with some hi kinks or desperation now and again.

Secondly "our" my friend.
