So are Yaya, Rodwell, and Nasri. Reunion anyone?

I’ll be that guy: Nasri is banned

They finally banned him for those buck teeth?

Zinchenko seems poised to join Real Betis, probably on loan. Waiting for City to give the OK it's reported.
Anyway here's our latest potential signing £350,000 from Valencia

Watch on youtube.com

I'm confused JC ( doesn't take much, granted), Touaizi has been with the club for a while now.

Just watched that video without sound so might be missing something - is it a promotional video or just a video showing warts and all? Either he's a tall lad for his age or the rest are midgets. He's quick and it will be interesting to see how he develops if we sign him.

i reckon he'll score hat tricks in the opening 2 games of the season

Yes we got him from Valencia a year or so back. Apparently we played against them in a tournament I think and he caused us all sorts of problems so we went back for him.

I saw what I think was his first game for us ( 18's) and he scored 2 including a good header from a corner which is something we are not used to seeing. Remember thinking he looked excellent and although still very promising he never fully took off. Fairly quick , reasonably two footed, good in the air and really good movement so he looked a good prospect and now he starts the season with 2 hat tricks.

Can't wait to see him play with the EDS against Liverpool tomorrow night in the main stadium.

Will they be high-scoring thrillers?

Sorry chaps, I've really messed this up. FIBD is quite right, he signed for us last season and starred in the U-18. As many have already kindly pointed out he has been prolific this season too. That video was made by disgruntled ex-fans and I've changed it.

Seems we've blocked a loan for Zinch according to this - interesting Pep's brother is his agent
"Manchester City will only allow Oleksandr Zinchenko to depart on a permanent deal despite Real Betis requesting a loan move, say ESPN FC.
The Ukrainian international rejected the chance to join Wolverhampton Wanderers permanently earlier this month and his agent Pere Guardiola is now seeking alternatives."

Zinch now 'appealing to City to let him go' to Real Betis

We’ve already said we’d led him go, just not on a loan deal - perhaps he should appeal to his suitors to buy him if they want him so much

Issue is the fee. Wolves were offering what we wanted and Real Betis are quite far off.

Issue also is Zinch changed his mind I guess, but tough situation to be in for him. I can see why he wants to stay but reality may be settling in now that it will be hard for him. Shame really, and I think Wolves would have been a good situation for him, even before the season started.

Maybe we hold onto him until January and see if PL clubs in need of his services arise. I think that might be best, as someone will come sniffing, even Wolves themselves again, but the gap could stunt his development a bit.

Yaya to West Ham is my guess. Pellegrini panicking

Supposedly it's not West Ham.

Allegedly a London club: Fulham, Palace, Arsenal or Chelsea unless he's in a lower league.

if Palace want a CM they should just loan RLC again from Chelsea. better player.

Not Palace either, according to Seluk. You also forgot Spurs and the Rags.

Maybe Arsenal? they are popular in Africa, and with past family connections might be a fit?

They have made a poor start, Ozil having problems, last chance?

Agent yaya to spuds, they'll have to postpone their new stadium to afford his birthday cakes

Is Watford in London? Or maybe QPR - they are suitably shambolic enough to sign the lying ingrate.
