Unless they sell Reus, I can't see him fitting at Dortmund.
Reus and Isco essentially play the same role, one or the other would work but not both.
Still firmly believe his best choice is us.

Really? But Reus and Gotze played together effectively. You don't see Isco being Gotze-like?

I agree. Don't know what Blue Blood is on about. Dortmund have already lost Gotze, Leitner & Bittencourt for the offensive midfield/wing positions. They are looking at Eriksen, de Bruyne & the Brazilian Bernard already, so I don't know why Isco wouldn't be able to fit in there. I do think that he may be a bit too expensive for their wage structure, if Madrid & us are serious about him.

City had emerged as favourites to sign the Malaga youngster after being informed of his determination to sign for a club who could offer him a key role in the first-team.
With German midfielder Mesut Ozil and Brazilian playmaker Kaka already at Real, Isco had voiced concerns that he could become a peripheral figure at the Bernabeu, despite emerging as the star player of Spain’s European U-21 Championship success in Israel this month.
However, with City growing in confidence that the lure of regular football under former Malaga coach Manuel Pellegrini would convince Isco to reject Real for a move to the Etihad, Zidane’s intervention has now left Real expecting to secure his signature.
Former Real captain Zidane, now director of football at the Bernabeu, is understood to have held several discussions with Isco’s father to allay fears that the player would be overlooked in Madrid.
Zidane is also believed to have highlighted Madrid’s proximity to Malaga via high-speed rail link in an effort to appeal to Isco’s desire to remain close to his family.

Has Marwood told him that a flight win EasyJet will cost him a tenner and he'll be back home within two hours?
