    Any reason Hernandez wouldn't get a work permit to join us? Pretty sure I heard Bruce say that his appeal for his work permit was tomorrow in his post match press conference tonight. Made it sound like it could be a problem.

    Won't be a problem getting one, just an issue with waiting for it to come through, can take a while.

    Goes to appeal if the player hasn't played enough international games. Appeal has to show he's going to contribute to the squad...effectively City act as a sort of sponsor to allow him into the country. Same as man work permits I guess in that you have to prove you have a skill to bring into the country. As has already been said, just red tape.

    Well I guess if we are paying 9M for him he better contribute to the squad! And lets hope the skill he brings into the country is goal scoring.

    As aside SB said he today he will bring something a little different to the side (he is fond of saying that), lets hope again that the something different is scoring goals, since we seem to have a perennial problem with that.

    Just watched the press conference on YouTube, he definitely said appeal tomorrow (Friday) and he'll see how they get on.

    Appeal almost always is successful, it just sounds more concerning than it actually is. All a formality.

    As I've said many times, I've seen him play dozens of times. I wouldnt say there was a single likeness to Remy other than he looks a little bit physically similar to him, if you're almost certified blind.

    Remy is a prolific goalscorer across his career.

    Will you please stuff them statists somewhere, prolific goalscorer throughout his career, he hasn't scored many in the last 2 games. Ronaldo didn't score many when he joined man utd, nothing like the 40 odd goals he scores now.

    once a player joins a new club, those things go out of the wkndow. Look at charlie austin, gary hooper, van wolfswinkel, negredo....all topscoers once upon time!

    I thought he was Italian................... last time I checked, Italy was in Europe... Due to that fact, as well as UK being in EU. I am pretty sure that he has the freedom to work where he wants. So what is all this bollocks about a work permit?

    oh he's Uruguayan? makes sense!

    Right, so basically your view is whoever we are about to sign in the future we should have no discussion whatsoever if we perceive the signing to be any good or not because 'once a player joins a new club, those things go out of the wkndow'.

    You just killed about 90% of all future threads on here or any football fans forum.
