WhatTheFunk Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Has anyone seen much of Nedum Onuoha btw? I can remember seeing him at the U21 Euro Championships, and i thought he looked absolutely class tbh. Mind, so did Taylor - but Taylor seems to have deteriorated since then. Onuoha looked a genuinely powerful, pacy full-back at that tournament; was quite jealous of City at that point having him and Richards on their books. I remember Dr. Spectrum raving about him being a massive prospect and better than Richards. Where is Speccy!!?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Has this been mentioned? http://www.teletica.com/noticia-detalle.php?id=51318&idp=2 Costa Rican international striker, Bryan Ruiz Gonzalez linked for €5m. Doesn't say who his current club is mind. EDIT: According to Wiki, he's 23 and plays for Gent in Belgium where he's scored 20 goals in 60 games...also says he's 0 ft 10 in tall.

SUPERTOON Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Gelson Fernandes says he could leave Man City, havent seen alot of him but maybe worth a go? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Gelson Fernandes says he could leave Man City, havent seen alot of him but maybe worth a go? Yes, we should be in for him, he's impressed me whenever I've seen him. He reminds me of Butt back in his pomp (the season before the 2002 WC and of course that World Cup).

Man City fans think he's garbage. We were linked with him before Sven bought him, and I seem to remember him saying he'd prefer a move to a bigger club in the Premier League than us.

Yorkie Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Hypothesising on transfers is the single worst thing people do on Internet forums. And yet, it seems to be the main topic every transfer window. The whole "we should sign..." line is tedious and about as useful as praying to cure world hunger. Anyways, when, oh when, are we going to sign someone? Fuckin' hell I'm gettin' miserable. Well i agree... and i don't usually... i was merely comparing news articles. *straw, clutch* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Few Man City supporting mates of mine reckon if anyone is coming in exchange for Given it will be Richard Dunne. The only stopping point is us wanting 10 million plus Dunne, City offering 7million plus Dunne. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Why would we want Dunne? We have a decent starting partnership as things stand with Taylor and others as backup. Plus, he's been utter shite this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggio Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I can't see it being Dunne, he signed a new contract with City in the Summer on big wages which I can't see us paying him and even though he's had a poor season he's still a regular for them, more likely to be Onuoha or Ben Haim IMO.

colinmk Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 McManus is not that good at all. All my celtic supporting mates don't rate him very highly. He is not good when under a lot of pressure and I wouldn't be willing to swap him for Enrique. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I'd rather have Johnson in the deal than dunne or even better both! Dunne has had a bad season but he has been very consistent the past 3/4. I think a move would do him no harm at all and would bring some decent experience we can actually use. More than possible we would employ Distin Bassong back at LB if we dont get one in. I do fancy adding Johnson to our squad though, will be dissapointed if we end up with a straight cash deal. Onouha probably fits alongside Dunne without the experienced bit, had great potential but the city fans I know dont rate him and he has lost quite a bit of stock the past year. Looking at it from the outside thats no big shakes seeing as every defender at City seems to be under the same label. Thought i'd put that in there because its new.

junkhead Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 So what's the deal with Richards? Honest question. This time last year he was the 20mil+ next best thing.. then all of a sudden he's crap and the mackems are signing him for 5mil () Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
