I also believe we should make an offer for him, as well as Mario Gotze. That midfield of Borussia is one of the best I have seen this season in all competitions.

[sheikh it all about]

City have rightly said very little about their transfer targets. No more of that crap like when Hughes insists he wants Santa Cruz and we get ripped off for 5 times his real value. (On second thoughts, make that 10).

So far, most of what we've seen is just press speculation. I'm really hoping we have a card or two up our sleeves.

eriksen?

[Stannaz1988]

eriksen?

Eriksen is world class but he Said he wants to stop at Ajax for another year or two before moving to a big European club, hopefully city

[mamoo100]

I think Chelsea tried it with Lucas and ad 32.5 million rejected for him a few weeks ago.
We haven't done to well with Brazilians, robinho, elano, jo......
I'd go for the one of the barca youngsters, one of them called Cuenca, unsure about the other I think it's tello

Bollocks to the Brazilians, its all about the Argentinians at this club!

Muniain is a player I'd like to see, seeing as Hazard failed to sign for City.

Nicely worded :-)

At the very least we should make the rags pay through the nose for him - we should always be looking to test their resolve now

Bit childish though. Don't think Mancini, khaldoon or the sheikh would be interested in something like that.

Kagawa won't bring them anywhere near our level. At best with him they will get a few shots next time we play them...about 3. They will still need about another 3 signings one of which will need to be top class on the level of van persie or someone considering the fact a few teams have found them out this season that would have previously rolled over prompting others to follow on next season and we are going to sign players that will make our ridiculously good team ever shitting better. Imagine better than we are now. IMAGINE IT, it's fucking mind boggling.

i was a voice of reason saying we should sign him last summer/fall....(and i don't blow my own trumpet oftenly, although i admit it does feel pretty good when i do. Maybe i should have a rib removed? back on topic...)

i've seen him about 6-7 times in the last 12-18 months and i rate him highly as well.

For us he'd be "another" Silva/Nasri in that he can play middle or wide and is best suited given some reign to roam and create/find space, but as we showed the last 1/4 of the season, having both on the pitch together worked well, and we have no cover there.

at 12M i'd have him in a snip...but clearly bobby doesn't feel the need for "more" of what he feels he has i'm guessing.

Silva/Nasri, create/find, 1/4, given some reign?

Put your trumpet up your trunk.

[Esky]

Confirmed to have signed for the rags.

Very good player and the best Asian player by a country mile.

To tell you the truth, I don't even think he is the best Japanese player. That would be Makoto Hasebe. I see him as a reasonably talented footballer, but no better than Nasri in any part of his game other than his finishing. He is not in the same league as Silva or Yaya.

It will be interesting to see how he fits into their system as he is not a winger and he's not really a centre-forward either. Whenever I have seen him he has played in the wooney position and if this is where he is going to play for the filth, he will either be on the bench or they are selling wooney. I can't see him being happy as back-up - but if he is, then he is fucking stupid for going there, IMO, when he could have got regular games at Dortmund.

Another hernandez, I believe. Not good enough to get in the team regularly but useful for marketing purposes in Japan - the rest of Asia will not give a shit.

Whatever happens he is now a cunt as far as I am concerned. I am sure he'll be devastated. ;-)

[PeterParker]

That would be Makoto Hasebe.

That is a player i would love to see wearing a City shirt. One of the best box-to-box players that are out there, maybe the second in the world after Yaya and a leader on the pitch.

+ i don't think will cost that much.

His contract expires this year or has he signed an extension?
