Maybe eriksson will give Bianchi more starts. Was his 30 minutes against Sunderland just coincidental after City fans had chanted his name against Bolton when Samaras was on? If eriksson senses City fans favour Bianchi and he's not that sure who to play anyway, as with the keeper situation, maybe he'll try and keep them sweet and give him some more starts. Something's going to change, it always does, apart from me having no money Anthony: maybe eriksson will have to change the system – other prem teams will have City sussed by now, and clearly Elano’s the man to stop, and if u curb him, and with an erratic Petrov, no real dangerous striker, City could have big problems scoring, and they’re not exactly prolific to start with.

He must have a bit of something about him, his goal at West Ham was a poacher's one while the one at Bristol City indicated something else, a touch of class. Can't really see him altering the system though, not on the league position attained so far anyway. I am not sold on 4-5-1, though I do think Hamann has done the simple things well and is a good shield for the back four. I'd like to see a little more of Gelson Fernandes too at some point.

I think potentially he could be a big hit at City (looked good when i saw him against Derby) but eriksson seemingly doesn't rate him or rather doesn't see him as a lone-striker, with 4-5-1 eriksson's obviously preferred system. I can only conclude he decided this during pre-season, assessing his frantically assembled squad, and choosing Elano as the fulcrum of the attack, playing him behind a sole striker. Unless he goes to 4-4-2, maybe when Bojinov is fit in Jan, can't see any future for Bianchi at City given he cost £9m Personally agree with Anthony re Bianchi.

Elano's already getting marked out of games, is Bianchi leaving? 4-4-2 instead of the endless one up-front? And Petrov, how many decent games out of 12 has he had - 4/6? All sorts could happen by the end of this season. I might win the lottery after which i just won't care Agree with Blue Moon about the £2m, but for City how will things change after Jan?

Also he's worth considerably more than 2M in today's market. You're just keeping him warm for us until he's enough experience to get into our squad.
