Unless Di Natale signs for 100k he can fuck off. No more players 1 hamstring pull away from retirement.
A 37 year old DiNatale? Oh please no.
Now on the other hand a 23 year old Yeni is intriguing. And besides, he fits the pattern.........

This kid looks so promising, he reminds me of how yaya toure plays in the fact that he seems to take most of his shots (that looked gorgeous by the way) from right outside the box, but he also seems to be a great poacher as well. He just seems to have that natural ability to be in the perfect spot in the box. If we were to get him I think his signing could possibly even over shadow giovinco on fact of being "good for the mls signing stars who are in their prime." He is even younger than giovinco, hasn't even hit his prime yet, and he is much more built for the physical style of the MLS than what giovinco is IMO.A 37 year old DiNatale? Oh please no.

Sidenote: for someone who is listed as liking to play as a winger and some times as a striker, he spends a lot of time hanging around in the middle like a CAM from what I've seen
this is where a partnership with mcfc can be beneficial.. you can have arsenal recruiting him selling him idea of playing for reserves/possibly being loaned out who knows where... when you have mcfc recruiting him to play in NEW YORK CITY on a nice payday with the benefit of a potential move to Manchester City in a year or two if he thrives... thats a big in my opinion
I'll take Di Natale. He's scored 12 goals this season. The money just has to be right. Marvo Di Vaio was a hell of a player at this age. This guy isn't Marvo Di Vaio, but you can score goals here at age 37.
Could Man City sign Yeni and then loan him here? Does that make sense? The wages would have to be low.

No disrespect to DiNatale, but I would rather not sign him and keep pursuing Daniel De Rossi instead. DDR is much more useful to us, especially with Kreis's diamond formation. We need DDR's world class CDM ability
You're right, given a diamond, but Kreis himself has said that they're not totally tied to the diamond.
Yes he did say that. I'm just going off of a hunch from his past history. He multiple times would switch to a different formation if it was better suited against the team they were playing. But he would revert back to his trusty daimond. I'm kinda reading into his statements that it will be something like that. He isn't gonna come out and say, "We will be doing the daimond formation and it will be our standard formation." It would just make him sound one dimensional as a coach
Di Natale is a far better player than Di Vaio
Di Natale's recent record:
2010/11: 28 goals in 37 games
2011/12: 29 in 43
2012/13: 26 in 42
2013/14: 20 in 38
2014/15: 12 in 15
Di Natale is still a quality player and just an all around great person. But I'd have to also pass because of his age unless he's willing to play for a non-DP contract.
1) I don't think they are mutually exclusive. They play two different positions.
2) I think we should dial back the De Rossi rhetoric. He mentioned in one interview that he would consider heading over here if Roma was the league. Consider and if - both in the same sentence. This isn't like a Xavi situation where we seem to be actively negotiating with the player.
