kingfox Posted 23 May 2019 Share Posted 23 May 2019 One of my favourite players growing up, if we can get Cambiasso then we can get Arjen Robben. If we somehow get him and he only joins for a year, he'll still be going on the back of my shirt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted 23 May 2019 Share Posted 23 May 2019 Would be a great signing! However I think it would be sensible to sign 2 wingers not just Robben, as he is prone to injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGLCFC Posted 23 May 2019 Share Posted 23 May 2019 Would be happy with Robbin and Bowen in, Gray, Ghezzal and Diabate out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dayday Posted 23 May 2019 Share Posted 23 May 2019 Mate went to a Bayern Munich v Bayern Leverkusen game last season, said he was brilliant, and scored a cracker , Also said in the club shop they have one bit dedicated just to Robben shirts as he was that popular.

car1os Posted 23 May 2019 Share Posted 23 May 2019 I'm just worried that he will be Robben a living if he signs here and finished up injured for most of the season... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good squad player, yes. Nailed on starter? If we don't have better options than him as a starter then we've failed in the window. James miller is one dimensional. Yet he starts games and ahead of shakiri (apologies for spelling). Managers love work rate and tactical know how in players sadly it seems fans don't.

Albrighton is absolutely mustard and has ended up being a nailed on starter under the last 5 managers. Albrighton has just contributed two goals and two assists in 27 league games this season. I get that people like him because he’s a good, honest lad who cares, but mustard? Never in contention for an England cap, never linked with a move to a bigger club, there is a good reason for that.

I rate this post. Albrighton work rate is good but in terms of Goals and Assists what does he actually do? He has to have an awful pass completion rate too. Hes scored some very very important goals for us however other players get worse abuse than Albrighton actually does. ?♂️ 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanSP Posted 23 May 2019 Share Posted 23 May 2019 Robben won't sign if Tielemans does. Not as in because they don't like each other, but Robben's wages would be ridiculously high and it wouldn't leave much in the bank for Tielemans (unless we sell someone).

A left-footed right winger--a skillful one at that--is exactly what City need. BR seems to prefer inverted wingers. -Barnes is used primarily on the left, -Albrighton is (paradoxically) much more effective on the left than he is on the right, -Gray struggled in a RW role this year, -and our only left-footed winger, Ghezzal, really couldn't handle this level this season. Even at this age, Robben could be awesome in a team that has the other 9 outfield players doing all the running. However, this link does look like a whole lot of nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambert09 Posted 23 May 2019 Share Posted 23 May 2019 Im pretty sure all of this has been picked up from a Sean from Enderby tweet... which the bookies seemed to run off and now people are jumping on it and making stories. Either that or Sean is actually a ITK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he is a defensive minded winger. In a 4-3-3, your wingers need to be attack minded and provide goals/assists... Regularly. Especially if we want to get into Europe. Even if we don’t play a 4-3-3, Brendan has said we need more goals from the wings. Albrighton isn’t going to give you that. He does however have a specific skill set which will be useful in certain games. For me, we should be signing two wingers to compete with Barnes. Marc’s new role will be on the bench, coming on for his experience when we need to protect a lead/play defensive/counter attack. The wings would then go from being our weakest position to one of our strongest.. (Providing we don’t sign two duds of course).
