Guest Deep456 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Manchester City have agreed a £7.4m deal for Brazil midfielder Elano and he will complete his move from Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday. (Daily Star) Considering this boy can play some good football, I think we should sign him. He is still in his mid 20's and already a Brazilian international and looks a fine player. Also he scores a fair share of goals. I reckon for the fee I think we should try and sign him ASAP. Discuss! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 I've never seen him play, only heard people ranting about him from FM, so can't possibly comment but it would be nice to see a proper attacking mid, especially Brazilian to replace Dyer when he goes. Although Barnes will do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Tbh, if there's a fee agreed with City, what do you think our chances are, as we've probably not even spoken to him or even scouted him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Although Barnes will do. Not good enough yet. You are right, he needs a season in the EPL, but i think then he'll be overpriced and Derby will want £10m or something dafter when the go down (cue Morph going mad, but its true, they are going back down) Get in now for £5-6m, all the money we get off Dyer, and in two seasons we'll be laughing.

Dyer is being sold for £6m I think that recoups majority of the Elano fee should we decide to go in for him. When it comes to affording players, I think Ashley will invest a fair share into transfer fees aswell. So we do fall into the small amount of clubs with initials N and U that can afford to pay £6m+ for a midfielder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utter bullshit that there are no players out there willing to join us, just one excuse after another. At least Dr Spec can be a happy man next season, it looked tits up at one point. Does anyone remember the Argentina vs Brazil game at Arsenal a little while ago? Elano scored twice, and I posted then that he could be Sinclair's replacement (I might dig that post up!). Would have walked over broken glass to get him here that day, but I was being ironic cos there was absolutely no chance that City would try to buy him nor any chance of him coming. But here we are. Same as Nery Castillo, watching the Copa he was a class apart, amazing to have all these stories in the papers about how we want him (Altho unfortunately it looks like he's going to Shaktar). Just being mentioned in the same paragraph as all these quality guys from all corners of the world while shysters like Harewood and Konchesky sign for some other mugs...I am a happy bunny.

I doubt Shaktar will sell him for pittance(Aren't they owned by an Oligarch?), but he'll probably put in a transfer request eventually...? Could be Trevor Sinclair's replacement in a year or two whistling.gif Mystic fucking Meg. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well enjoy it, glad someone is happy. Can see Citeh being a force next season, although i still think Sven will over spend like always in the end, but that doesn't seem to matter to your new owner.
