Well, he hasn't played for a bit because the Ukrainian league finished at the start of December so he'll be way off match fitness.

At a guess, this weekend in the FA cup

International clearence came through this morning so could e tomorrow. He lacks match fittness but has been trainingwith us since he signed in December. Cant wait to see him play.

I know he is more of a striker, but his game is not too different from Elano... I am really interested to see how he, Elano and Petrov will fit in together. But in either case, it gives Sven the option to rotate his key players.

think they might play like this:

petrov----ST------castillo
-------------Elano
-----Hamman----Johnson

2 away wins so far is not good enough for a team with ambitions to finish top 4, I think finishing in a UEFA Cup spot would be great considering last season.

Milan are yet to win a game at home this season in Serie A, and yet they have top 4 ambitions.... so I don't see how City can't have these ambitions... their win against Newcastle gives great hope, maybe things are finally changing.... maybe, just maybe....

Tho I agree, even a UEFA Cup spot will be a great achievement this season.

Well considering out of the 10 away games we have played 7 have been against the top 10 teams in the league (not including City ) and another was Spurs. Bearing that in mind we have got 10 points out of 10 games which is the 11th best away from which is pretty good.
