    Looked him up a bit, and it seems that City fans couldn't rate the poor man worse. :56:
    Hoping that Deila knows what he's doing, but this is the type of signing that he used to do at Strømsgodset. Signing an unwanted player who no one really has an interest in, and then turning them into decent players.

    A lot of City fans don't rate him but see what they wrote when he actually got to play a game in the PL:

    http://forums.bluemoon-mcfc.co.uk/threads/player-thread-dedryck-boyata-2013-14.308261/page-3

    It's funny, if you go to the first page to that thread they're all worried because he's starting, but a couple of pages in he's doing well. How they can really judge him when he never got a run of games for them is beyond me. A lot of people will just make up their mind on a player and never re-evaluate their positions. Like with Forrest or Stokes :fear:

    Think he'll be solid enough. Just glad to see is not wasting time with transfers. Best to get them sorted soon as possible

    Indeed.

    I have a good feeling about this one.

    Let's be honest, if he was the type of player that City rated as a real prospect I doubt we'd be getting him for £1.5 million.

    He'll undoubtedly have his shortcomings, but if Deila has seen enough in his strengths to believe he can work with him and turn him into a player then he's worth a punt.

    Wouldn't take much notice of what the fannies on blue moon are saying. If it was before they won the lottery I'm sure they'd rate him but now they think they should have a team of world class stars

    This I think. Kinda feel like they've only kept him around to fill the quota for the CL. Might have been a good prospect for them 3/4 years ago, but not anymore.

    Conversely, if they didn't rate him at City why was he on their books from the age of 15 until 24.

    He was due a Testimonial next year :56:

    Very happy with this considering the quality of player we are getting for the reported price.

    Spoke to my mate who's a city fan earlier and he reckons this bloke is absolutely hopeless, bad attitude and clumsy as *

    Hope Ronny can turn him into a player

    Sounds like their 35 million quid signing from Porto TBH.

    Only difference being Mangala has shown he is hopeless full stop whereas Boyata hasn't had a chance.

    He played 6 games for Man City this season, which means he's immediately better than 99% of SPFL players. And let's not forget, they wanted to extend him contract apparently. If true this is an absolutely huge feather in his cap.
    .
    City fans, with their rich Sheik pumping gazillions are just a spoiled bloated bunch of classless * now. Lets face it, if it doesn't cost £35m they aren't interested.

    Even with their Rupert Murdoch and multi-billoinaire Arab's spunking constant money down their throats, they still won the square root of * all this season :bbpd:

    EDIT: Just seen G&W's response, honestly, our * "supporters" at times :31:

    We make legends and city just hope that if they throw enough * at the wall some will stick
