And the 45 or more players they have on loan, there is very little space for young players to break through in these big "money miss Road" clubs.

And when the money miss Road do you think it goes back to Abramovich.

goldfish80:
Seriously if goalkeepers must be ball jugglers, I wonder why Guardiola didn't play Ronaldinho or Deco in goal so they can play from the back.
They were the 2 best players with the ball at their feet at Barca.

TheGoodJoe:

You call a man who created one of the best artworks, if not the best ever artwork in football a dull coach. It is his art. HE WHO CONTROLS THE BALL CONTROLS THE GAME. Alex Ferguson and Beckenbauer do not think Guardiola is dull.

komekn:
If you know the politics of money settlements and arrangement that goes on in most academies you will understand why.

City really don't have time to wait for you to develop they need success now not tomorrow.

safarigirl:
well.Alex Ferguson recommended David Moyes as a good successor for him when he retired and we all saw how rhat decision went, so, not to yab Fergie the Great, but sometiminiom isn't so precise

And what is "He who Controls the ball controls the game"? Is it football or yoga we're talking of? For all of Bravo's control, City has been losing control of the game a lot

komekn:
The first thing to do is check who his agents are that may give you some insight.

Green is very true but what makes him worth £10milla what's his unique selling point or outstanding ability.

Two feet is not enough

According to his club (ADO Den Haag) website, Tyronne Ebuehi has accepted an invite for a game against Senegal in March.

TheGoodJoe:

There are numerous players and not all of them will make it at their parent club. However, it is different at City because those working at City worked at Barcelona and they have in mind to grow players from the academy into the team.

Iheanacho broke in. Dennis Suarez would have if not that he had personal issues and decided to return to Spain. With time, we will have some quality home grown players.

Money did not miss road because there is also plans to give back through the academy. These academies give these boys better lives.

onirugbon:
Which team are you guys supporting in afcon2017?

As for me I go with Senegal. They have such a yummy squad (better than us by miles). Infact they are the best team on paper.

Still waiting for your invite

Don't be decieved prior to Guardiola the academy coaches are about 95% British even now there isn't much change. First team level yes not at the academy.

I could probably name at least 8/9 people in that academy who I know Well, wellu, well all are running deal, chop clean mouth and go. At one stage you had Father and son as coaches in the same academy.

What you see are the guys who were allowed to make it not the guys who were not allowed to make it or made to make way for the big money youth players acquired.

NUFF SAID I could say a lot more but what's the point I an not here to win a debate but to share experiences.

komekn:
I haven't watched him so I don't know how good he is and if he has enough quality for the National team.

Now compare him to Aina at Chelsea who is competing against international and world class players for a position.

Who is better

onirugbon:
Lol Nacho is on many levels above yeboah. Nacho will get games and perform on loan move.

Remember the pre season games when Nacho was dominating teams in USA. That is the kind of player he is. City under Pep is tinkering with his confidence.

He needs to move.

tbaba1234:
I agree that he is overpriced..

Can you elaborate on the agent angle?

tbaba1234:
He is a solid player but i rate Aina higher.

I think we have very good options for right back, now.

Has Aina agreed to play for Nigeria yet?

komekn:
Aina another Naija boy born in small Lagos (Peckham) Southwark. It shouldn't be hard the Naija link up in Chelsea is strong.

The question is do we want him?

"I keep asking him: 'When are you going to come and play for Nigeria?' and he jokes: 'Whenever you come and invite me I will play!" Mikel told Goal. "I think it is something that we would have to discuss.

"If he wants to play, we would have to speak to the federation and make sure that he really wants to play for Nigeria. If he is ready, we can talk about, but in the few times we have talked about it, he hasn’t given me a very positive, decisive answer to take back to the FA.

"I need a positive answer for me to take the case forward to the FA. We will see what happens."

safarigirl:
has he finally reasoned his life?

Did he watch the game against Algeria and thought "oh boy, true true these people fit qualify for World Cup and I go make the squad"?

Did he look through a list of Europe's best players and come to the conclusion that he's a small fish in a big pond?

Did he read the big moves our players are making and feel, "this could be me, but I no dey play international football"?

Or did he finally decide that his agent is talking bullocks and shouldn't be taken seriously if he wants a great career?


Anyway whatever it was, I'm happy he made this decision on time, before he would have become another Onuorah singing the blues

He should go and collect junior boys form from Iwobi and Kelechi

daveP:
Okay, Enyeama is beginning to piss me off now.



This is not a way to do stuff man!

tweeby:
Waiting for your reply

enomakos:
idemudia?i think you means bright igbinadolor?

TheGoodJoe:
LOLS.

Boss, you can be done. See this point, form wins. That was why Hierro took a free kick and our experience Peter Rufai thought it was going out and failed to cover. Then he escorted the ball into the net.

Bia Nu, why did experience not help him dia.
