Flanno's got a brain. Players with a brain tend to improve with age, just like Carragher did for us. Not the most skilled, but consistent as others mentioned and reads the game. I would say that the mental side of defending is far more important than the technical.

The links to Hernandez are interesting tbh. Saw his goals from this season so far and he looks idea, far more than just a penalty box poacher. He makes good runs off the shoulder and is pretty clinical in taking chances. Him running onto the through balls from Coutinho and Firmino with Ibe providing width could be deadly. He's got a knack of being in the right place at the right time too for knock ins - which is precisely what we don't have. We're way up the league with regards to chances created and way down the bottom on chances taken. We just need a finisher.

Plus, signing the little pea would grate on the mancs too

Chavs confirm the well publicised signing of Pato

Interesting comment below
  • The pace, movement and trickery that marked Pato out as a special talent in his early years have declined as injuries have taken their toll. There are parallels with Chelsea striker Radamel Falcao in this respect.

No doubt, thats why I am glad we didn't go for him
 
You're just a girl.

Hey baby... I'm just looking for a simple kind of life. Underneath it all I'm just looking to settle down. My ex-girlfriend was looking hot on Sunday morning, it must be magic in makeup.
 
We actually play this game at work... on conference calls you set an artist and have to try sneak in as many song titles into the conversation without anyone else knowing what's going on... makes boring conference calls a bit more interesting

Will we get anyone else this window? I highly doubt it. Nothing seems to be happening, little disappointed we didn't get Tex.
 
I'd have tekkers over Balotelli any day, balotelli is one of the most over rated lazy nutcases in world football if not the most.

Balotelli over benteke, ya need to give ya heads a shake.


Benteke at least has scoring goals in his portfolio. <ok> There have been moments he's done good things. Balotelli accomplished nothing with us despite a lot of time.

I've never rated him, even at city when he was banging goals in regularly.

I don't and never bought into the "he could be a great" bollox, he was never going to be great, he hasn't the right mentality or thirst to achieve.

Worse buy than Carroll, up there with aquilliani.

Septic player can't wait til we're shot of him.

Interesting point on badontelly....

He's never scored 20 in his career and his best was 17 at city with 13 in league...

He's never been and never will be anything special.
Not a surprise to me that tbh, Firmino could get more than his 13lge goals this season.

I've pointed out the false claim that he was good at Man City before but it fell on deaf ears. Couldn't be arsed to repeat it constantly.
