    Hey give over , don't you think I've suffered enough. He hasn't played for us for a year so I'm entitled to forget how to spell his name. You all knew who I was referring to tho'. I give in!!!

    McKenna isn't really an Ashbee style player. Ashbee was more physical, powerful but lacked technique. McKenna on the other hand is light weight, yet very composed with the ball and is good at passing. I'd compare McKenna to Xavi in some respects. He does give us leadership in midfield though.

    I've seen quite a few City fans likening our players to Barca on here. It does make me chuckle.

    Messi should be in our sights. Billy who?

    Yes Mckenna can pass a ball but not to the extent of Xavi!

    Kilbane is our very own Messi.

    EDIT: And just to clear this up I didn't mean McKenna was anywhere near as good as Xavi, just that they have similar playing styles and share the same attributes.

    If we were to compare Mckenna to a Barca player i would compare him to Busquets
