    Judging by the comments of the Rangers fans and the Youtube video, this Bartley bloke looks like a waste of time to me.

    Slow and ponderous..a panic buy to replace Monk/Tate who are prob getting on a bit now.

    Sinclair is mad if he wants to play football this season. at city i cant see him even on the bench they have too many big players on big money not to play them, With us i think we would see the real Sinclair with the way ML wants to play the game. He may get a bit more money even as a player playing reserve or 3rd team footballer but not a substantial amount more, Its not even if he really needs the money he is quite a wealthy man anyway....If he really wants to play football and prove himself (because he has the talent) then he should stay with us or he will end up a forgotten man at city....

    If he has aspirations for an international call up then it's a bad move. Just look at Adam Johnson as the prime example. AJ has realised the problem and wants to move but if Scotty doesn't want to learn off those in the same situation then more fool him

    One of those Rangers fans pointed out he was fine at Centre-half when he arrived but terrible when asked to play right-back and centre-midfield.
    With us he'd only ever play CB.
    RB is covered by Obeng and Chico if Rangel goes down and CM is choc full of options.

    Caulker was rubbish out of position too but he did very well at CB, leading to an England call up. Bartley was injured for much of his time at Rangers wasn't he?

    Investing in youth. Something our side has always done. Looks a tidy player at CB which is where he would play. Happy with this.

    Is seems he was playing right back at Rangers and not CB. It must be a reason Wenger would have liked him to stay. I know he was fifth choice at Arsenal, but still...

    very happy with this young lad. give him a couple of seasons with us and he will be a house hold name, If Arsen rates him then that's good enough for me and not some rangers fan who was happy to see him play for them but now he don't want to play 3rd division Scottish football he is now crap..<doh> This young lad is talented and we are lucky he chose us and not other clubs who was after him...
