Can't really usee that as a barometer, we need a Mirallas level winger to push on, rather than just better than McGeady and Atsu

At the moment getting in better than what we have is an improvement

Not for me, been sitting on that City bench for 2 years now doing nowt and picking up a big wage packet. Can't be trusting a player with these ambitions.

Absolutely ridiculous this "we dont want to develop other teams players"- attitude

You presume he's been sat on the bench happy like, How can you know he's not been asking for a move, He's not the first player to be snapped up by a top 3 team to find himself rotting away

This is true. Also Man city are reknowned for buying, and keeping hold of British players that they have no real use for, just to fill their home grown quota. He could just be a victim of that.

I dont think we have that kind of money. For a player of Mirralas quality, you are talking at least £15M. I suspect Bobbly has max £5M to play with. He either has to take a massive punt on a player from lower leagues/ the continent or look at players like Scott Sinclair.

Playmaker signed it seems, pity he can't get a work permit and is off on loan.

Google translate will tell the story, quotes from the player saying it's all done.

Aye, i remeber paying 15 million for mirallas the first time round........

Think kev is proof you dont need that amount of money mate.

I agree with people saying Scott Sinclair isn't the right kind of person for Everton - something Roberto places of the highest importance - because he has been sat there for 2 years. Teams can't force you to be employed by them, if he really was bothered about not playing he could have just cancelled his own contract and moved on. I suspect the amount of money he was getting was/is a big factor on him not talking in public about wanting to move.

Sorry I was wrong to presume, turns out he doesn't even make the squad.Spent all of last year at WBA and he was so highly rated they gave him 8 games. Not for me sorry.

Is he a playmaker? I thought he was more defensive, but I could be wrong...

Bony signed by City for 28 Million

Eto'o possibly leaving

Maybe it's time to make a play for Dzeko?

Only problem is he's on £125k a week. Would he take a cut to about £80k in return for regular football?

I'd be happy with that as don't think he's ever let City down when he's been given the chance. Not sure how he'd fit into the current formation with Rom tho and he wouldn't come to us unless he knew he was gonna play. Loan probs most likely, but suspect wages would be an issue (depending on what Eto'o going might free up).
