I would rather someone else. Maybe I'm being 'lower league-ist'.

Charlie Austin would have been better but only moved to Burnley recently so thats a no go. Targeting the English league isn't a brilliant idea imo, overinflated even League 1 and 2 .

Man City agree deal to sell young winger

 

Manchester City have agreed a �£3million deal to sell Slovakian winger Vladimir Weiss to *Dynamo Kiev.

 

Weiss, 21, has been told by *Roberto *Mancini that his chances will be *limited this *season, *despite *playing a *prominent role during City’s pre-season tour of the *United States and Canada. The winger spent last season on loan with Rangers after a spell at Bolton the previous year.

 

Weiss – whose father Vladimir is Slovakia’s coach – was part of the City team that won the FA Youth Cup in 2008, but has found his first-team *opportunities *limited.

Trial by youtube...............he looks a decent wee striker

(A bit strange with Weiss, but I do assume that 3m is just a part of the affair. It could well be that we were never offered a chance and playing for his father was a decent enough pull. He's still young though.

 

EDIT: Mistook that. It ain't his father who manages Kiev. He manages that Slovak team linked with a swoop for Weiss earlier.)

I've made it a rule never to watch YouTube videos where I can help it. They always make players like Nuno Capucho look like Arjen Robben.

And Sebo look like Gabriel Batistuta.

That sounds a bit disparaging.
