marveax looks likely as does downing so it looks like it's a decision between mata and johnson... so who would you choose? mata or johnson.... i'd go johnson everyday of the week

Agree with you on that. Would have love to get both but that would be getting greedy and players sulking reven before the end of the season. Mata is a star already shining because he play first team football week in week out. But Johnson does not enjoy that prviliges right now but with the promise of first team football in Liverpool FC , I believe he can be even better than Mata...

Mata over Johnson. Johnson was inconsistent as heck per man city fans if I remember. Give me class every moment versus "Highlight" flashes.

Mata hands down, absolute class.

Johnson for me aswell, buy buy buy.

all due due respect to newcastle and sunderland but they are not in the same planet as city ( in terms of funds ). we bid double the money what carroll was worth so we got him, we probably did the same thing for henderson. those club cant afford to turn down offers like that but with city its a different story. city can buy a player for 50m and offer him a 10yr contract of 150k a week and just leave him in the reserve. i can see them giving johnson a option of rooting in the reserves until his contract runs out or moving to a club like newcastle (non rival). i know the fair play rule comes in but i think clubs will find a loop hole in the system.
would be pleasantly surprised ( biggest understatement of the day) if we signed him but wont be holding my breath

I think the Bundesliga is very similar to the EPL. If we sign anyone from there they should adapt easier than others.

How about getting all 3? Juan Mata , Adam Johnson and also Stewart Downing. Maybe having all 3 of these names plus the potential arrival of Sylvain Marveaux will benefit us all through the season. All these 4 wingers can will be used in a rotation system throughout the season with the main 2 to be Mata and Johnson. Downing and Marveaux will act as cover for injuries and in those cup matches.

I know it's going to be expensive to get these 3 players but we can sweeten up some deals to make it more attractive by offering some of our players.

For Aston Villa ( Stewart Downing ) , maybe we can offer cash plus players such as Joe Cole(out of favour), Christian Poulsen(out of favour)and maybe some more deadwoods like Nabil El-zhar , Emiliano Insua and even Paul Konchesky.

For Valencia(Juan Mata) , cash plus Alberto Aquilani(wants to get out of England) , Raul Meireles(unsettled due to transfer rumours) or Daniel Pacheco(return back to Spain).

For Man City(Adam Johnson) , cash plus add ons because I don't think they want any of our players apart from Luis Suarez at the current moment.


So if King Kenny , Damien Comolli and John W Henry can do this shrewd business then we will be in for a very good time. I know it sounds a little exxagerated and impossible but like what people say NEVER SAY NEVER...


YNWA...

Four wingers, now we're talking, be like Chelsea back in the day when they had cole, wright-Phillips, robben and duff and look what happened, they won the league a few times. ( although we still knocked them out the champions league haha the mugs)

Theres as much chance of us getting johnson as messi city wont sell to a top 10 premier league team yet alone one with ambition and credentials to challenge next season. Id love him but whats the point talking about him other than with regard to a dream team.
