He's 3rd top goal scorer for Madrid and played 10 games so far with just short of a 1 in 2 ratio... plus Ronaldo is think is injured?

Tbh I haven't followed him much since his first couple of games with them.

So he's been brilliant then? Awh shucks, and here's me thinking he was beginning to regret his choice, for the very reasons we thought he might.

So would he fit in our side at the minute?

He does appear to be getting less playing time now that monkeyfucker is back from injury. Would he have gotten more minutes with us? Not sure.

Absolutely.

Isco is better than Nasri & Silva from last season but he's not better than those two are now.

I think in time he will regret not signing for us but we will see. Hes a Spaniard and especially for someone of that nationality a move to Real or Barca is a draw they cant refuse.

Dont wish him any ill but similarly I have no concern about whether hes happy at Real either tbh. If his possible arrival helped inspire Nasri's improvement this year, then he will have helped us indirectly anyway.

Silva was not as good as you remember and Nasri was not as bad.

Knowing how Nasri is for now there's no way i'd swap him for Isco (on the proviso that Nasri kept up this form)... Isco's always had a problem with the defensive side of things and that's something that Nasri and Silva are both good at. Their pressing is excellent and I get the feeling that Isco would prove to be basically a bit of a luxury signing as opposed to one we need. I'd much rather we got Jovetic fit and let him begin to show us how good he can be.

It's not just on the ball though.

For our game to work, we need players to graft when they lose it & Isco has never been great in that department in the past. He runs about more for Real than he did for Malaga, but would he do the same for City, & keep it up ?

Nasri is running his balls off for the team, so is doing two jobs rather than just one.

Playing in Liga is different from playing in Premier League, just because Isco scored a couple of goals wouldn't swap him for Nasri.

Would rather we spend on defense than improving attack any more when its not needed. Giving Jovetic, Lopes, Guidetti, Pozo chances would comes before than thinking about the bitch who ditched us.

Take him, Madrid's loss he made a choice most Spaniards would have made except Silva who is from the Islands.

We don't need him, we need a few defenders.

Isco is still a superstar in the making, you all know this and were we not scoring for treats at the moment then this thread wouldn't even exist.

However, we would not be able to fit him in at the moment, I cannot imagine replacing one of our front four as they are all playing exceptionally well. Would literally have to be Messi/Ronaldo/Ibra to unseat one of them.

I've not followed him or Real this season really, but I guess he stands in for 'the big two' if they can't start. I would imagine he will pick up plenty of games over the season.

I dont see the problem. Real have been our feeder club for years now.
