lets hope for more dodgy nycfcabc deals

[goat]

apparently pirlo is joining to form a dynamic midfield with lampard

[BongoBlue]

Would probably work as long as they put a couple of willing runners in there with them...

Going to see my local team here (NE Revolution) play NY City in July. Hope Super Frank is with NYCFC by then. And if Pirlo rocks up too, all the better.

[Lekos]

Pirlo on loan, please.

[bluebrendan]

Pirlo on loan, please.

Maureen would no doubt moan like fuck about it so yes, please. 

[Swiss]

Why? He's a bit old now and we should be looking to the future. If we want someone to just stand in the middle of the park pinging balls about might as well stick with Toure!

[goat]

but toure cant ping it as well

[goat]

might even get a decent corner out of him

[Swiss]

I'm not doubting his quality, one of the great passers of the game. But what's the point at his age!?

[goat]

he can still play, should be enough
im a big fan of players like that around the youth team, i said it when we signed viera he will be more of a coach than actual player. if the youth cant learn anything about running a game or even how to be a pro from players like pirlo fuck them off

[Ludo]

Great players don't necessarily make great coaches.

You can't coach the innate talent that a player like Pirlo has; you either have it or or you don't.

[goat]

but they are more likely to learn something of use watching him in training than a fernando or navas

[nimrod]

things rub off on kids

Lampard was old but worth it

[Stephen Paul]

but they are more likely to learn something of use watching him in training than a fernando or navas

Very true , there is more to football than running straight for the corner fleg

[Swiss]

I'd still rather get pogba and schniederlin

[goat]

but more chance of pirlo than pogba wanting to join

[Swiss]

Vidal then!

[goat]

not sure any player that gets a game for a top club is realistic

milan want mario, we can hijack that deal

[Swiss]

Balotelli?

[Ludo]

Not too sure that's true, or at least I hope not.

Realistically there's only 4 or 5 teams in Europe that would be considered a better proposition than City at the minute. Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Juventus in Europe and maybe Chelsea or Utd here. Arsenal recently signed Ozil from Real and Sanchez from Barcelona both of whom were fairly regular starters.

[goat]

not sure sanchez was that regular at barcelona

wouldnt be surprised if london was a big reason they went to arsenal, lot of foreigners i know have this mad idea that london isnt a shithole
