If Tevez comes (& I think he will), it will be Robinho who sees the door in May.

The logic is simple: With Ibra playing as a SS lately, along with Tevez, Robinho & Cassano, we will only have Pato as a Box Striker. Inzaghi is as good as gone and therefore we will need to keep Pato for tactical reasons.

Cassano (injury aside) has been better than Robinho and it seems the Club (& Players) miss him. If he can return to 100% and Tevez comes, then say goodbye to Robinho. I think it's that simple.

After watching tonights game, it's been reaffirmed for the Umpteenth time that we need a LB & CDM/anchor. Ambrosini & Antonini can no longer play in this club. It's too risky. They are no longer (or never was in the case of Antonini) Scudetto-Challenging material. I would use Aquilani or Seedorf there until we manage to get Montolivo, DDR, or Casemiro.

I'm not sure who for LB, but we need someone. Lastly, but not least, we MUST bring Merkel back next season and have him compete with Boateng for the ACM spot. I do not think we need to buy an ACM, as we will very possibly have 2 excellent ACM's.

Well, I agree Robinho's finishing has been awful lately, but if the memory servers me right, our return to form after horrible start to the season somehow started around the time he returned from injury. So maybe he isn't clinical, but I think Robinho is very important for our game. He tends to keeps defenders on their toes with his speed, and he has great positioning for a forward. He creates a lot of chances, and I believe the finishing will come eventually. If it's between him and Tevez, I'd take Robinho "all day, every day and twice on sundays".

You guys know I'm a big big fan of Robinho, however (unlike some) I do know the difference between what is needed and what I want to see... Yea he's a much better player than Pato at the moment.... but Pato's potential is enormous....and if Pato reaches his potential, he should start ahead of Robinho........... actually, we all have been waiting for Pato to explode to be that certain type of player...... What if...... we buy that certain type of player we've been wanting Pato to be all along and make 40m cash out of Pato and avoid the long frustrating wait of injuries and waiting for him to develop?

We've all been waiting for Pato to be:

First video is of his time before he joined City, and second is last season. Truth must be said, I cannot see Pato escalating Tevez in terms of he he plays. Tevez is one of the most complete strikers out there, so similar to Sheva. I am so getting warmed up for the idea of him coming. Yes Fabregas the one I wanted but damn Tevez is such a good rebound!!! If we get him I am going to jizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

If we buy tevez, pato stays healthy,and cassano fully recover,robinho is most likely the one leaving.robinho transfer will give us 20 mln,that's a good start to get someone like gozte or erikssen.

As for LB,I'm still waiting on taiwo's adaption to serieA.cuz there is no good LB available out there.if taiwo fails,how about balzareti as temporary option?we get nocerino almost zero cost,maybe galliani can do it again.or we get back merkel,and try him there,merkel has shown great adaption ability, all-around skill and mind set so far,that's his quickest way to crack milan first 11.at least it's definitely a solution better than we go for maxwell.
