    Since we've got our own subbie, transfers like this deserves a new thread as it'll increase this section being active.

    Pretty much what Veri said, but only see.n him play the odd time so can't say much about him

    They overpaid quite a bit from what I can tell. However, that's normal for City so it's uninteresting news.

    He's a completely different type of player to Lucas and Sandro though. Much more like Yaya Toure.

    Where did I say otherwise?

    The comparison to those two is just irrelevant really. He's competing with Paulinho for a spot in the Brazillian team, not those two.

    I thought Paulihno was the same type of player as Sandro

    Granted iv literally seen nothing of him but thats what I heard from others

    Fucking hate Brazilians

    I'd say Lucas and Sandro are pretty similar. Pre-injury Lucas was miles better than Sandro's ever been, though.

    Fernandinho doesn't play that role at all. From what I've seen he's kind of like a very attacking CM.

    Don't think you can pigeon hole him at all tbf. He offers a lot offensively but he does a lot of his work from deep and wins the ball back quite often. Will add a lot to their midfield.

    Id say Lucas is more of a possesion defensive midfielder, not to take anything away from his defensive ability which is great, but I think his reading and ability to control the tempo is gives him that something extra

    Sandro is just like a destroyer of a DM

    I think theyd compliment each other playing for Brazil better than any other 2 deep CM pairing they have, wouldn't say they're the same type of player

    Not seen much of Fernandinho but any player that kicks Barry out is a good signing :p

    Is this like that time United created player profiles for Benzema and Oezil on their website?

    Fernandinho is basically Ramires with better passing.

    With their rumoured interest in Isco, City look incredible middle to front next season.

  16. Uppercut CB Faldo

    Yeah. I was going to compare him to Gundogan but he's a little bit more attacking/creative than that.
