I dont doubt his fitness and condition Im trying to think like levy does and i cant see a deal but who knows.
In all honesty with how well we are doing i really dont see levy purchasing anyone he wont see the need.
Understandable, but it's a bit selective as I could point to the Saha and Nelson deals a few years ago. Older players for cheap, and only because they were cheap. Granted Milner wouldn't be quite as cheap, but he'd be considerably less so than he would otherwise (mind you City will not pass up several million pounds given their FFP restrictions, so I highly doubt they'd let him walk in the summer), and given his fitness level the value for what we pay would also be beyond your typical situation for an older player.
Still aren't doing that well IMO. No excuse for how many points we've dropped against weaker sides and how consistently we've struggled to find the way through. Without Eriksen and Kane's late goals, we'd easily be struggling midtable. Could use an experienced player such as Milner to inspire some belief, some will, and some aggression. Truly think he'd be a brilliant purchase for our young squad in such a physically demanding system.
