    No doubt he is regretting that move. Can't believe he is not getting game time over there.

    I can.

    He’s not suited to playing for a team who’ll likely be in a relegation battle - see Girona last year.

    He was playing well for Girona but then got injured for a while and never really got a look in afterwards. It’s a long season and we’re in September. Way too early to tell if this has been a failed move yet. Plus Norwich play attacking football.

    We should be in for him in January and looking to sign him permentant next summer. Elyounoussi will cost too much and be on too much wages for us to keep, wouldn't be surprising if an Ajax or Porto or a German team sign Elyounoussi after this loan spell.

    He's only made 3 sub appearances for Norwich and has no chance of getting a game. We should be on to him now for January as Sinclair will leave, we can put Morgan out on loan and will have Roberts to use to rest Forrest and even use him as a back-up striker. Wee bit of extra quality like him could be vital in doing another Treble.

    Things haven't really worked out well for him since he left don't think he will get first team game time at Man City just needs to get a team that will play him regularly to show what he can do

    No followed him closely but I wonder if he became a bit big for his boots and thought he'd made it..

    Would still take the chance on him but has to be a reason he can't get a look in at Norwich or in Spain before..

    Hmm. He's made zero impact anywhere since leaving us. And even with us he was injury prone and not always consistent. On his game he's an unreal talent, and I'd definitely have him back. But he would still have a lot to prove.

    Loan bid in January? Don’t think he’s actually started a game for Norwich but we all know what he can do. We need competition for Forrest on the right and Shved isn’t getting a look in

    At this point I’d take him back. On his game he’s as good as Forrest, but he’s not shown that since leaving us. I reckon we’d get him back to form though, another one of those players that just seems to fit here.

    I'd take him back actually I'd try and sign him full stop, like they did with Kent. Mind you maybe Dembele and Frimpong could be an option.

    If there was a remote chance he could come back then I would take him 100%

    I'd definitely take him back. At his best he could be devastating, and his value will have plummeted since he left us. Is he out of contract in the summer? He signed for City in 2015, so he can'y have long left on his contract either way.

    He's still only 22 so still has loads off time to improve here.

    I'd take him back but we lack physicality in the side as it is. I'd be looking at the DM and CB positions first.

    I'd like us to try and find a tall, pacey and physical winger if that's not too much to ask cheers.

    He signed an extension before going on loan, another 2.5 years to go

    That Bruno Henrique from Flamengo who played against Liverpool looked the bees knees, was Samaras like able to pull down a long ball and skin * cutting in from the left, tore Arnold apart.

    Guy like him would be perfect. Cost Flamengo £8million last January though but there must be some other players like him about in Europe and South America.

    We don't need fukin Patrick Roberts :56:
    We need another striker and a couple of players who can get stuck in and don't hide playing against a bunch of fukin animals.

    Play the * at there own game...we have too many lightweights.
