Carrick was exactly that type of player.

He genuinely confuses me, I tried to summarize what I saw from him over the years and there is no way for me to pinpoint a role or a position.More confused than when I entered his threads!
Well, that lasted long.
Would be pretty weird, they signed two CMs this window already, didn't they?
This clearly means we're signing Verratti
The same DOF that mourinho wanted Utd to appoint and woodward refused to interview him.
We can't sign anyone
If I don't laugh, I'll cry
If I don't laugh, I'll cry
Or Parades
Battleship sunk.
And that’s the end of that chapter!
Going by how people react to news in the FDJ thread: “It’s in the bag
“Good while it lasted
Looks like it’s already put to bed. I can go back to not knowing who is, like the last hour never happened.
Wow a Tier 4 journalist was just pulling shit out of thin air....colour me shocked. 
James Robson....Christ. Whose next? Mark Goldbridge?

Hard to be disappointed when we never looked we were signing him.
Mourinho didn't want any DOF.

Its like this parking botch-up
I suggest we have a survey and vote on what sort of player we think he is. Crumbles but at least there is some data otherwise we have NOTHING.

Yep, this is Ruiz's agent putting pressure on us. It's in the bag.
James Robson knows nothing.
PSG have signed 3 midfielders which would have improved us this window
You will now be attacked by the ‘signing just for the sake of it ‘ brigade
He's the only journo keeping the FDJ thread alive. He's been steadfast in his reporting that we're calm about the situation. Until now.
These journalists that pretend to know our transfer business
Who else have they signed in midfield?
Check their DoF and you know why. See ours and you know why as well
tbh, and being a FDJ muppet myself, the only thing keeping the FDJ thread alive is Stone/Ducker haven't updated. If either one of those two update we've opened up and looking to other signings, the FDJ thread is dead.
Renato Sanches and Vitinha
It's gazump time, John.
Their owners care about winning trophies. Ours don't
Their owners are an oil state. Ours aren't
PSG will have Verratti and Ruiz and we're playing Fred out of position. That's just depressing.
That has nothing to do with ambition
Someone's means have nothing to do with their ambitions and their targets?
How tall is he? Is his dad fat?
They didn’t pay a big fee for any of them. Infact less than what we laid for Martinez for the 2 combined
Ah yeah, forgot about vitinha. Thought he looked a good alternative to FDJ. Didn't realize they'd signed RS.
His head is too big for his body unfortunately.
Eh? I can have all the ambitions in the world but if I can't afford an education and barely get by on subsistence living, all the ambitions won't help me get there unless I turn to crime or be lucky as hell.
If you think a state-funded organisation owning a football club doesn't make a difference then I have a bridge I can sell you. Where would City be now without their state-funded resources? Yo-yo club.
Sanches was going nowhere outside of PSG, even though PSG struggled for that deal he was willing to to put Milan aside until PSG were completely out. Regarding Vitinha he seems to be pretty good but he doesn't fit with the profile of players we need. To some extent the presence of Bruno limits our options, there are players that could help us in a different set up but that likely excludes Bruno.
