But WHY leave City for us?
Well, City only sign proven class players nowadays, so what's the challenge for their scouts?

I think Liverpool had to sign scouts from a big club. Rodgers and his Swansea pals have probably scouted plenty of potential Swansea players, but a much bigger club like Liverpool need to look at a different market. For example, Fallows and Hunter should know all about Gaston Ramirez, while it's a waste of time for Swansea scouts to watch him.

Being from Northern Ireland and a bit familiar with Irish League Barry Hunter played Irish League for a team called Crusaders and went onto play for Northern Ireland in the 90's.  Think he may have played lower league in England too.  That's about it.  Didn't even know he'd moved into scouting or was at City until today.

I would guess they will be operating on much smaller budgets here so the mistakes will be smaller, but with that the chance of success also diminishes.
Odd. Unless there is something we don't know, they'll now be operating on a completely different level. Why??

Why do people think scouts were responsible for Balotelli? Looks a lot like Mancini's signing if you ask me, worked with him before and knows his qualities (and temperament). He's not been that bad for them either.

  This makes a lot of sense - access to high quality player knowledge at a bracket Swansea would not consider

If I had the faintest clue what you are on about or how it relates to my post that you've quoted then I'd reply.

So presumably this is the lad responsible for the likes of Jo, Balotelli, and Kolarov? Great.

No Balotelli played for Inter under Mancini. Mancini is the main reason for the Balotelli transfer.

He'll still have scouted him probably.
Pretty happy with Arse taking it.

Disappointing.

Did our scouts scout Konchesky before Roy signed him?

This thread is laughable, people attempting to attribute different signings at Man City to different people when in reality nobody has a fucking scooby who decided on Signing A or Signing B.
