Nogbad the Bad Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/12691/8671104/Transfer-news-Bristol-City-defender-Lewin-Nyatanga-attracting-interest Didn't see that coming! Indeed, Nyatanga might well be in the 'SO'D would like to keep, but player decides to move on' camp. As opposed to 'the club desperate to get rid of, but can't' which may end up being a larger contingent. He's certainly been impressive recently and might well be worth retaining alongside a new no nonsense ball winning colossus in the McFadzean mould. If he goes he goes, if he stays so be it. I've got strong feelings about many of the players but I'm fairly indifferent to his future really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorset_Cider Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 So much negative talk about a Bristol City player. Very disappointing. Who do people think we are? Barcelona? No we're better than that, but I get your point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bristolcitysweden Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 We are bouncing for the PL and don't need piss poor Nyatanga or his equally piss poor partner Fontaine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WellRedPhil Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 Some of the comments on this thread are laughable. "One of the worst defenders I've ever seen in a City shirt", you're having a laugh aren't you?! I think we'll offer him a new deal but whether or not he takes it is anyone's guess. I wouldn't be surprised to see him playing for a Championship team next year. He's not amazing by any means but he always received far too much stick. He's a reasonable defender who was always better than James Wilson. He'd be more than adequate for us in League One next season but as I've said it wouldn't surprise me to see him sign a Championship contract.

City1970 Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 "Sky Sports understands a host of clubs are keeping tabs on Bristol City centre-half Lewin Nyatanga, who is out of contract this summer." Good, one of the deadwood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciderbeans Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 For so long people have wanted rid of him. Now we have the chance I say ta da! We can do better. He's never lived up to his promise so nothing lost there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric04 Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 All sky do is talk to agents who tell them clubs are interested in the hope of a) getting a better deal with current club b) sparking an auction. Truth is probably no one has made any firm enquiry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
City fan 1982 Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 i will drive him anywhere he wants to go, flattered to decieve a couple of good games here and there nowt special time to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sglosbcfc Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 I've said this before but I'll repeat it again, in centre back terms Nyatanga is a baby, he is 24 not 34 and will only get better. If we can keep him without paying silly money we should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Casual Connoisseur Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 He's been playing league football since he was 16 and hasn't got any better, if he was any good he'd have showed consistent ability, the fact that as fans we are split on his ability and worth at the club speaks volumes. I'll be glad to see the back of him, the fact that he hasn't been able to cement a place in what's been an awful defence for far too long is enough to make me wish him well for the future.

Red_Mat Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/12691/8671104/Transfer-news-Bristol-City-defender-Lewin-Nyatanga-attracting-interest Didn't see that coming! "Ball-playing defender". Epic fail, Sky Sports. All credibility is lost in that story the moment he was described as ball-playing: only if you describe hoofing the ball 50 yards up field, onto the heads of the opposing fullbacks as 'playing the ball'.

real_bristol Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 I think we should try and keep him on the basis of his performance against Wednesday. I know thats one game, but as I said before central defenders develop late (for us) and he looked like he was running the back four that day agaist a very tall side. But we shouldn't pay over the odds on his salary. Chances are he will go as a championship club will take a punt on him - although you never know with FFP If we get a RCB to replace him, a decent one, next season could be an interesting one for Fonts.
