He's exactly what you need imo. He'll give you legs and workrate in that CM area and no little skill to boot. He's a far better player than he's being given credit for in some quarters.
He will get offers though, he's already had a big improved offer from Man City. Doesn't it tell you something when they are so desperate to keep him and they're clearly in a better position than us? And before you point at HG requirements, they could just promote a youth player to fulfill that need. They clearly like Milner. Fact is, we will not agree on Miners qualities. Next season, he'll be playing first team football somewhere (which is why he's leaving Man City) and hell prove his qualities one way or the other.
If he really wanted first team football, then he wouldn't have wasted 5 years on City's bench, picking up a nice 6 figure salary in the process.
147 appearances in that five years (just under 30 a season average) isn't 'sitting on a bench'. But yeah, you're right. He's obviously a **** that's only interested in money hence him rejecting a reported £165k poet week at Man City lol Didn't say something about being allowed to change your mind / opinion to MITO earlier today too?
Which explains why he's reportedly turned down £165k per week to stay then.........................Oh wait....
So you're going to ignore the past 5 years of happily sitting on the bench? And he hasn't rejected anything yet.
It would appear that you're ignoring the fact that he's made 201 total appearances for City during those 5 years...............
I emans about his contracts and whats he doing. none of us really know he's got an offer from city or if he's turned it down or who is in for him. I'd actually love him to go play for arsenal now and be good and make jimmy bite his pillow in frustration.
I think Arsenal will go in for Morgan Schneiderlin. Probably because he's a better all around player.
different players though... and frankly its telegraphed for a year now so yeah it should happen by rights.
See we should send Adam Lambanana back and get him instead. Hell, should've bought him in the first place. A real player. But we're not interested in those
Oh right. He could still be persuaded to stay at City, but the noises from his camp to the press would suggest that he's going to move on. He apparently wants to stay in the NW, so that makes you favourites if he does move on.
