damn, they're splashing the cash. Dybala, Mandzukic, and now Joveti (if true).
guess Tevez is off and they're not convinced at all with Llorente and prob will look to sell. wonder if it also means Real is activating their buyback option on Morata as well.

You could well be right.
I know that Ted once seemed to rate him to some extent, but I've always regarded him as a complete waste of shipping space.
IMHO he's about as much use on a football pitch, as the lamp-post outside our house..........although the lamp-post might have better ball control.
If he were ever to become available, someone such as Pulis might be mildly interested.

Could be, as they have no other saleable assets. Nope, definitely no other players they could sell for big money.

I think he's a potentially superb target man, well I don't know how old he is now & may be he's past it but go back a few years &.I think he was really fucking good. I & don't understand how he's got in this position, but he seems like a square peg in a round hole there.
Some of his touch play for Bilbao was sublime.

In fairness, the Toshack/Keegan partnership was pretty effective too.

I think you're spot on about him being a square peg etc.
Perhaps Bilbao was the perfect set-up for him but now, at thirty or so years of age, his best days might be all in the past.
Perhaps also it's my antipathy towards big tall 'target' men which doesn't give him the credit he might deserve, but I still shudder at the thought of that type of player of the ilk of Toshack, Wyn and Ron Davies, Niall Quinn etc etc.
Give me the Francis Lee type any time.

I think he's been outstanding most of the time he's been on the pitch for City, even in the games where people were calling him shit; some of his touches are brilliant & most things he does are intelligent. He's also a skilled header of the ball, as opposed to most aerial strikers these days who are just long necked & tall.
I think he almost is a target man in a way, but more like Hughes rather than Joe Royle.
I just hope that, if we do sign these players we are being linked with, we give Bony plenty of time on the pitch, otherwise he will lose his sharpness & live up to the 'shit' tag, some fools have given him.
