Isco?

I've seen that Malaga are doing quite well despite their financial problems that arrived during the summer where they had to sell some key players.

One player that I've heard who has been doing well is Isco. Apparently he is only 20-21 years old and I often see him on the scoresheet for Malaga playing as a midfielder(?)

Now I dont follow Malaga so i don't know much about this player but is he good enough to play for any of the bigger clubs?

He's got some flaws in his game like holding on the ball for too long and/or putting others under pressure with his passes but his close control,dribbling is out of this world. His finishing has improved a lot over the year too.

It may be only an indication but watch some clips of him on Youtube.
Expect him to be on the plane for Spain in 2014 in Brazil.

Plus, just look at him.(my sig) He's almost Arteta level in terms of attractiveness. NO HOMO

Yanited should be looking at this guy, he would bring in some flair and technique in to their midfield. Imagine Kagawa and Isco in midfield.

Quality, i would expect him to play for a big club at some point. My only reservation on him is the quality of his decision making, footballers have to make about 1000 decisions in a game and he too often makes the wrong ones, or the correct ones but not quickly enough. Atm thats the only thing stopping him being a top tier talent imo

One of my favorite spanish players. As Rev pointed out, he has phenomenal close control dribbling.

*bleep* him, hope he has a short injury-riddled career

i bought him on my fifa 13 career club team....(Zenit lol big transfer budget and lots of players i didnt care about selling off) and he's leading my team in scoring...best 19 million spent

Man Utd don't need him imo, they already have Kagawa.

Of course he is capable to start for a big team, have you seen some "big teams" midfields, not to mention he is a tremendous player.

Also, he had a great year last year as well especially at his age and this thread is probably a year overdue.

You would hope Malaga can hold on to him but that team is still a massive mystery to me. I thought they were loaded but I guess not as they sold Cazorla for pennies on the dollar.

For what it's worth I think he stays in Spain and it would be the best thing for him.

You're jealous.

If Sahin does return to Madrid, we would do well to sign him. Since we needed an attacking mid more than a CM.

so with Malaga banned from Europe next year where do we think he'll move to?

My bet is he'll go to one of the 3 big spanish clubs (Barca, Madrid or Atletico) and rot unless he goes to atletico. if not that he'll move to Bayern imo.

He's going to England i'm sure..There is going to be a bidding war for him between PL clubs.

Barca and Real Madrid don't need him and Atletico aren't really a step up.

Yeh, I think he'll join a Premier League team. Maybe Man City. Hopefully Liverpool sign him though.

Thats never stopped them buying players they didnt need before lol.

Atletico are a step up imo, another star player in Isco and maybe they will finish ahead of madrid.

Dont think he'll go to liverpool, Rogers seems to be interested in British players imo and i dont mean to put liverpool down but right now moving there would be a step backwards in his career. Chelsea wont sign him, United dont really need him at all and SAF doesnt often waste money on players he doesnt need.

City have been interested in him for a while but that would be silly for both parties, he wont start (unless they sell Dzeko and Balo) and if they dont leave Isco will just rot.

I hope he comes to Juve but its never going to happen.

Could possibly move to Arsenal and link up with Santi again??

United dont really need him at all and SAF doesnt often waste money on players he doesnt need.

Arsenal already have Cazorla and Wilshere for CM.

Wheelchair is turning out to be an injury prone player imo. bit of a liability.

I dont really see Isco being a CM for much longer, at a bigger club he'll move further forward up the field.

@Surag. whats so funny bro?

Man United not wasting money on unneeded players lol ? Thats unheard of.

Can you name some players that were unneeded?

Ofcourse there are players theu bought when other area's are in much need of reinforcement but i wouldnt say there are many players united have purchased that that didnt 'need' in one way or another.

So? It's not like they can't play in a formation lol

isco would be an upgrade to di maria imo.. would enable a pretty cool 4-2-2-2 with isco playing a 'left' AM role and ozil playing a 'right' AM role with ronaldo and benzema up top.

injury prone means getting injury many times......Wilshere as only been injured once which was the long term one, other then that he has never been injured....
