supporter 3,088 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Maybe what I'm going to say may seem like an crazy exaggeration, but for me personally Ruben Loftus-Cheek inspires me an assurance for our future even higher than Paul Pogba.A signing as Koke is perfectly compatible with respect the natural progression of Ruben Loftus-Cheek in our first team.However, a signing as Pogba would mean the beginning of the end of Ruben Loftus-Cheek in our team and he would have to be on loan in several teams before being sold for 5 million pounds.I would also love a player like Pogba. I think nobody has doubts About this. But we need a creativity midfield to recover the style of play that we did at the beginning of season very similar with the style of Barcelona or Spain.I think we have to think coolly our signings. I believe that since long time ago does not appear a young player like Ruben Loftus-Cheek able to become a world star in a short time if he has a chance (I hope his first big chance can be today in our starting eleven).In addition, we have had problems in the creation of game from behind. Koke for that role is clearly better than Pogba (as playmaker).And with time Ruben Loftus-Cheek could become better than Pogba if we bet strongly in him. Obviously this seems a crazy comparison, but seeing RLC in our Academy I think that RLC he has conditions to be one of the best box to box in the world without a doubt.We have the best Academy in England and Europe and we have to give a chance to our young guys.Regards to ALL.

nadavTKL 1,787 Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Pogba is definitely not a proven "Elite" player. An Elite talent for sure but as a footballer/midfielder? Not yet at least.The point is that while I think he'll get to the highest levels, maybe even ballon d'or level one day, he's yet to prove he's a SURE thing. I wouldn't be unbelievably surprised if in 2 years he'll be kind of a disappointment (by the standart people expect from him). His talent is what impresses me the most but his overall game not so much so far. He's a gamble I would like to take though, no denying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illmatic 901 Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 The wednesday is his day. Anxious to watch him against Madrid. Until now I have never seen a great actuation of him against a Big team, and like I say in other occasions, I'm not convinced for his overall game. And what better game for see of what things he is able, that against Madrid in that round?. This is his game, the time to show why a lot of people consider him as one of the best midfielders, and moreover, shut up the people (Like me) that have doubt of him.

kellzfresh 7,229 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 He's the ideal replacement for toure. Only with even better skill and technique already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,887 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Let City sign him if thats what they are offering.Giving Juventus Toure and fuck loads of money? Juventus are getting the better deal really, a MF 3 of Fernandinho, Pogba and Fernando if another manager comes in.... really average, two box to box players (one who is a bit older and a young guy whos dominated in Italy but never played in England bar 5 or 6 shitty cup games) and a DM who has hardly looked special for City yet where as Juventus will still have Pirlo, Marchisio, Vidal and also Toure who is still a class player in my eyes but has struggled to dominate games for City this year (mainly due to the fact City are usually outnumbered in MF with their stupid four four two formation). If Pellegrini stays and sticks with 4-4-2... Pogba-Fernando.... really going to be comical.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 If Pellegrini got sacked, I could see City sign Pogba. I'm not sure how they deal with FFP though.Also heard that Pogba handed in transfer request from some crap newspaper. Don't know if that is true or not.

empire of emotions 247 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 tancredi said today on twitter that barcelona offered 80 million euros for him, but the transfer will go through in 2016. basically he would be on loan at juventus for one more season.you decide is this realistic.

CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Yeah why would we want him?Matic RLC---Cesc would be just as good imo. Silly to spend on him. He'll either go to Barca and replace Rakitic/Iniesta or City to replace Yaya or to United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
