    showboating is fine when you're a couple of goals up, usually it's best to try and do the simple stuff well to get that lead.

    george is our best player at the moment, no doubt. but there are times when he does things the hard way when an easy ball is on. in the game against bohs a few weeks back he was our best player, but on a few occasions if he'd taken a simple ball to doyle instead of beating a player first we might have created a few more scoring chances.

    Sorry DolansWaistcoat - gotta disagree with you again bud.

    Flynny struggled big time this season when George was out suspended etc ( he is a pure goalscorer and, as with these type of players, depends a lot on good supply etc ) yet George has gone from strength to strength as the season has gone on.

    Don't get me wrong however, I am one of Flynny's biggest fans and we are a poorer side without him but your question was to pick between them and it is no contest I'm afraid .......... George is more important to the Club at this moment in time.

    George does need to work on his free kicks though - Beckham he is not I'm afraid.

    o flynn aint the same without george. and when john is in the team george passes the ball a lot more. i think george is more important coz he has created the goals which enables john to score. if u dont have the creativity u wont score the goals and dats why i go for george

    not a hope in hell

    if georgie doesnt perform(which is rarely), city dont perform

    its as simple as that

    georgie has been the one of the biggest talents in el over the past 2 seasons

    flynny is an excellent goalscorer but georgie is more important to the team

    GEORGIE FOR IRELAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    absolutely spot on.

    George bugs the crap outta me at times because he ignores the simple option, but if you took the showboating and the arrogance out of his game he wouldn't be half the player. Talent that great has its good and its bad sides, and i definitely think the good far outweighs the bad!

    me again!

    JOF or GOC?

    Whos more important for City?

    has to be jof everytime.Alright flynn did look a little lost at times when goc was out this season, but thats because they have built up a good understanding over the last 2 years and hes bound to miss george's great passes.I think flynn would adapt if he had to play without george all the time and would still score goals.Hes an unbelieable goalscorer and if he didnt get injured he would be miles ahead in the el goalscoring chart,no doubt about it.

    Ask yourself the question if it had been george out these last few months instead of flynny would we have the same amount of points?I think we would have and maybe more.City have been sh*t in front of goal without Jof.

    Anyway we need both lads playing to see the best out of City.Roll on next season when the title is coming back down south.It's been up around the pale far too long!

    JOF is a better player but cos city got like creativity with Geoge then he is more important to City.

    The skys the limit for JOFs eL scoring if he gets more chances...

    Got to say that Flynny is better, but without Georgie, he wouldn't look half as good as he does. Think of how he looked when playing without Georgie. However, Flynny is class, and would definetely adapt w/out GOC as he such a classy act.

    now take georgie out of the side and its a different story
    we would look very mediocore. we would struggle

    Exclamation .................................

    Doyle, Georgie and Flynn ............ Class

    Michael Nwánko could be very good too !!

    Dan Murray is very good, as are Hoggie and Bennett (if we played him )

    Woodie .... When on form is class too.

    Thing is we need a squad of all class players.

    I don't think you can compare George and Flynn in this way to be honest, both give their all but provide very different abilities. We miss both when they're not available. (We may miss George more since we lack creative options). What is certain is that together, their partnership adds even more to their individual worth to city.

    George is class, but is even better with Flynn alongside, converse holds true aswell.

    id like to see Flynny, when fit, up front with doyler with Georgie playing behind them in the 'hole'.this might work at home playing with wing backs,I know Hoggie would be able for it but would Billy be able to get up and down the wing as much as Hoggie.

    thats the key to it. We might not have looked as threatening since flynny got injured, but we haven't dropped down the table. Without Georgie we would have.
