Can Txiki pull this off ?

Postby Ted Hughes » Mon Aug 11, 2014 6:22 pm

Barry reportedly 2 mil, Rodwell 10 mil, Garcia 12.5 mil, Nastasic 12 mil, Richards 5 mil, Guidetti 4 mil Sinclair 2 mil.

Total: 47.5 million quid.

City's transfer spend= fuck all.

if we sell five more players, including 2 Englishmen. And for the exact amounts the OP suggests, then we will balance the books.
Or spend "fuck all"
Rather than the 49 million we are allowed to spend
yeah right.

Never criticise a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes.
That way when you do criticise him you'll be a mile away.
And you'll have his shoes.

Whinger might just be daft enough.

He spent 16 million on a rightback that just got burnt for pace by Dzeko so he might go for it.

Nasty might do much better in another League. He just doesn't fancy the physicality of the PL. Mangala on the other hand looks well up for it.

Dzeko is by no means a slouch and when he gets motoring he can hurtle along quite quickly and powerfully actually.

He's not slow but he's not known for his pace either - and particularly not his burst speed. I doubt if he's in the top 8 in the squad. Our fullbacks, however, in my opinion, can all out burst him, which is what I would expect the vast majority of Premier league fullbacks to be able to do (with the apparent exception of Chambers).

I think this is down to complete cluelessness about the subject & therefore failed smartarsedness, possibly under the influence of drugs, rather than any rectangular conundrum.

Our fullbacks, however, in my opinion, can all out burst him, which is what I would expect the vast majority of Premier league fullbacks to be able to do (with the apparent exception of Chambers).
he's not known for his pace correct but quite a few times for us he's surprised everyone with a burst of acceleration that you wouldn't expect. Watch his part in our goal in the 1-0 league cup game a few years back at the Emirates. I remember similar runs against Liverpool and the rags that season. He really can motor at times. He's not so quick off the mark but at top speed I reckon he would outpace kolarov, clichy(not as quick as he once was) and Zab, quite easily too. Only Richards ( who's going anyway) and Sagna would beat him outright for pace. I'm not sure about chambers, haven't seen him play too much but he shouldn't be written off for being outpaced by dzeko once in one of his first matches.

Thing is he is still young, so some might see what they perceive as his potential. He did put in some decent performances in his first season. Then last season and the fuck up away to chelsea did him a lot of damage, he went from bad to worse, no confidence. If he could get some confidence and a bit more aggression / determination to attack and win the ball he could be a decent cb. But pre-season showed no signs of that much needed improvement.
A move back to Italy is most likely, 12m is about right.
