Who was the last world class signing and how long ago was it?

[clevblue]

Who do you think was the last world class signing and how long ago was it? Was it FFP that stopped us or bad judgement?

[gavin]

A combination of both. The last World Class signing was Sergio in July 2011.

Be nice if Bony turned out to be world class, wouldn't it... can't really see it, though.

We may as well not of bothered in 12/13

In a lone striker set-up yes. In a 4-4-2 I would put him ahead of Dzeko or Jovetic

[bry the guy]

I would put Bony ahead of them two in any formation.

[Tricky Trev]

Oh how quickly we forget about dzeko's contribution. He played a crucial part in both titles. Bony has done fuck all.

[goat]

thats my line for fucks sake

but how long do you let players hang around because they did something years ago? colin bell did a lot for city but wouldnt want him playing now... probably still fitter than yaya tho

[bry the guy]

I wasnt having a go at them i was saying i think Bony is a better player and Goat is also right.

[Swiss]

The thing about dzeko is that he's not a good footballer. He can s ore goals but his passing and hold up play is awful. He tends to slow play down when we're going forward n'all

[goat]

cant really get away with just being a goal scorer for some reason

two strikers i loved, the goat and pippo inzaghi wouldnt make a good player between them

[Swiss]

If you're gonna be a 6 yard poacher then that's fine, but Dzeko gets involved in the play.
