Stevan Jovetic

You're being naive if you think that's the end of it.

Meanwhile, you are pretty hopeful, eh ?

Do you think Manures are as stupid as Wenger & sell Roonski to Chelsea ?

[Pizy 18,368]

That side Skipper posted does look insane to be fair.

Great defense, immense central midfield, top class attacking midfield, and a world class striker.

Still think City will be our bogey side. That is unless we make those two additions I mentioned above. If the season started tomorrow without us making any more signings I think we'd still be behind City slightly. Roo loves playing against them though and I'd love to see De Rossi own Yaya.

[OneMoSalah 8,776]

We add Rooney and DDR and I think we'll be seeing one hell of a 3 way title race.

Also may see 3 english sides make very deep CL runs.

Pellegrini has a superb record in Europe so I wouldn't be surprised if City make it to the last 16 in the CL at least with these new additions.

Anyway based on what you said I pretty much agree, if we get Rooney and another DM to fill the void Romeu left to compete with Mikel (if its not De Rossi then Gustavo would be a good back up) then we'd have a very much complete squad and competition in every place. The title race could be very good this year along with Champions League but I feel we'll see Bayern in the final again.

Aguero Jovetic - Silva - Navas Y. Toure - Fernandinho Clichy - Kompany - Nastasic - Zabaleta Hart

Dear. lord.

Well...you know if you stare at those names long enough, they begin to look a whole lot less threatening. Just saying...

[nadavTKL 1,787]

I realy dont see City's new side as "insane" or anything like that. It will sound harsh but thats realy what i think about their squad... first, for me their only real addition in quality is Fernandinho. Jovetic is very talented but he isnt a 30m player for me, and i think it will take time for him to get to his Seria A level (and btw he didnt have a good season), Tevez right now is the better player, for PL at least. Navas isnt a starting player for this level, and Silva is overrated, i easily see him going to another poor season like the last one. I dont know, i thought CIty are going to have a better transfer window than that. Negredo, Navas, Jovetic, Fernandinho is just not that frightening when you look at what other teams in Europe are doing.

I think PSG built a far better side, and i think our side will look better if we'll sign Rooney and DDR.

[Bosnian Blue 2,471]

Go for Dzeko now.

[zolayes 14,489]

Im so happy Tevez has gone ,,,he really was dangerous

May I remind you how they kicked our ass last season?

Add Navas and Fernandinho...

I don't rate Jovetic very highly and feel he's been grossly overhyped. Fernandinho I feel will be great for them and make their midfield even more formidable. Navas is the one who I think will surprise everyone. If he settles nicely I think he'll be a real handful for most teams.

Their back 4 is probably the best in the league. Also can't see Aguero having another down year.

City are the team to beat currently.

[nadavTKL 1,787]

Thats just my opinion about those players. No i dont think Navas is that good and Negredo+Jovetic<Balo+Tevez.

yuvala, may I remind you that now we have a real manager, and its Jose? and i said IF we'll get our players (Roo and DDR or someone else).

Thats true, but still they had a better squad IMO.

If we do get Rooney and DDR then yea they should look out.

[nadavTKL 1,787]

Thats true, but still they had a better squad IMO.

I think too, but i dont think they made any real progress except bringing Fernandinho. Thats why we can imo pass them by bringing Rooney and DDR. If they would have got Isco and Cavani like they wanted it would have been alot harder.

[Toli 977]

dont get the fuss here. navas is mediocre and one-dimensional as hell. decent player, but nothing to be afraid of. fernandinho is really a good addition, but we still have to see how he adapts to EPL. negredo is worse than tevez and balotelli, so a clear downgrade. jovetic is decent, but still just a talent and quite injury-prone. so we'll have to wait and see. if we sing rooney+ de rossi, we clearly had the better summer.

[Mufassir08 2,400]

For me personally i think city are favourites right now although if we add rooney and De Rossi then it will be very close.

[Bir_CFC 3,455]

We've improved our squad but not our first eleven, especially not the areas we were weak in.

[zolayes 14,489]

Add Navas and Fernandinho...

in Jose's first season they beat us with an Anelka goal and we won the PL

[BlueLyon 9,359]

We have to wait and see new City and our players play in PL. Then we can tell who made better deals...could happen that Navas, Fernandinho etc will flop or Negredo scores 25 goals..

Like us, City's biggest signing is Pelegrini, not players.

Realisticaly we dont have team to win PL next year, but we are building squad for next 5-10 years. I think City will fear us in couple seasons more than we fear them now. So far we brought quantity, but no Quality and exprience. Get Rooney and DDR and we start dancing.
