Fair enough, it just read a little that way with you saying a player who effectively makes your midfield worse would improve Hull's midfield.
Not hard to be better than Ashbee TBH, I'd agree there, but I don't actually think he should be a 1st pick for City. Nolan isn't actually all he's cracked up to be IMO, and I'm not convinced he'd be an improvement over Boateng in anything other than maybe being just a little bit more mobile. Hence why my preference would be for them to pursue Huddlestone.

Nolan isn't all he's cracked up to be. Boateng was an odd one I thought, sometimes held the ball up well and like you say, Hull had the ball more when he was playing. However, other times he seemed to give the ball away very often and very cheaply, in a similar fashion to Nicky Butt.
