What is this after watching him have a good performance for Brazil? You forget all the fouls he had as well, his discipline is something worth considering the amount of needless tackles he tried to make when the ball was already gone and now that City have gone and signed a sitting midfield player maybe it shows that Pellegrini doubts him and Toure together as a pivot??

Fouls? You mean the fouls ramires does or what matic does or what anyone else does?

Fernando was brought in because yaya toure cant stay healthy and they are preparing for him to leave city in the near future... Unless, you think javi garcia/english flop are sufficient to the cm department.

Also, matic would be our holding player and fernandinho would go forward. Unless you think ramires or any other cm on chelsea does not foul or an upgrade from fernandinho....

Fernando was brought in because the Fernandinho-Yaya combo wasn't offering enough protection to the back four. Fernando can't replace Yaya. He's purely a holding midfielder who doesn't offer anything in attack.

And I'm glad we didn't shell out 30M plus on Fernandinho. He's good defensively and good going forward but not great in either of those aspects. He's very much living off the hype of his performance against us in the champions league, a performance that I haven't seen him replicate in a City shirt. The times Yaya was out injured and Fernandinho had to step up and play that role, City's attack was sterile.

Yaya played 35/38 games for city in the epl this season.

When City didn't have fernandinho and played with garcia/demichellis, there was a huge difference in play from City. City looked like shit without fernandinho.

Also, fernando coming in allows the option of yaya to be sold and fernandinho to take over his role.

Fernandinho is very good at what he does but in no way if Yaya Toure was sold would they let Fernandinho take over his role. They probably would go all out to get Pogba. Fernandinho is nothing like Toure going forward so he would not be able to take that role. Anyway don't think City will sell Toure at whatever cost anyway. However in games where City don't want to play with 2 strikers they sometimes will have Fernando and Fernandinho as a partnership with Toure further advanced in the no.10 role.

Watch Yaya at Barcelona. He was nothing like Yaya at City. In 3 years, Toure scored 4 league goals.... Now, is it because he got substantially better at City? or because his role was restricted at barcelona. Fernandinho is very good Cm. Long, athletic, technical, good stamina, good vision, etc.

In addition, they already have creative players in Silva, Nasri and Aguero. Yaya can produce moments of magic, however, these days he is also a liability to his CM partner and doesnt play full gear a lot of matches.... Fernandinho can control the tempo of the team better and probably help the team as much.
