Staying at Forest until the end of the season: http://www.mcfc.co.uk/News/Team-news/2011/December/Greg-stays-on-at-Forest
Thought he might have some chance of getting into the City team. Despite having Kolorov, Clichy, Lescott and Bridge in the squad, there's still no recognised starting left full there.

=There is no way he is good enough for City let alone an EPL side (yet).
 
I watched him at Leicester and he was LB and got caught out of position a lot as he liked to get forward all the time.
A full year at this level will do him the world of good. Still a very young player with a promising future. Not sure LB is his best position though.

agreed....

he could easily do a Coleman on it and be converted into a winger imo

Was a striker at underage level and signed for City as a striker but they somehow City transferred him into a left back.
 
He 11/2 to be in the Euros squad, if he has a good second half to the season i wouldnt rule it out as we Know Trap really likes this guy.

100%. Not giving rise to a debate but the 4 aforementioned are long established PL players and 4 of the best in the division. Not to mention their spending power if they see it necessary to buy in January. 

There'll be very very few youngsters breaking through at City for the forseeable future, and to do so you'd have to be some superstar. I dont think Cunningham is that superstar, certainly not at LB. Id need to see him in a few more games to give a fair assessment which the player deserves but in what I have seen him he strikes me as being very naive positionally and is not fully comfortable with the role, yet anyway. The game time will be great for him. Ludicrous though to think he'd have a chance of polishing Mancini's shoes for the time being.

Good deal for him - next step he needs to take then is a permanent move away from City in the summer. Maybe to one of next season's promoted clubs or something if he's lucky.
 
As others have already pointed out, realistically speaking he hasn't a hope of breaking into City's side.

The pair that says that City don't have a settled left full this season, despite having the four players listed in the original post.

Championship level is perfect for him right now. Practically no chance of breaking into Man City's side. Expect him to move on in the summer so a good stint injury free in the championship could open up some options

The Championship has served us well in terms of options for the national team , theres nothing stopping Greg plugging away down there for this season and even next season then going on to get a place in our squad regularly Trap likes him as we all know....

Man City have links with a host of clubs now , i wouldnt be surprised to see him in Holland or somewhere on loan next season....

Looked a very good player at Leicester, but the injury seems to have knocked him back at bit. Has no chance of making the Euro squad. Will move on next season and should be a vital member of Noel King's squad at U/21 level.

great  move he has played every game since he went. he is one of the most advanced of his under 17 age group who played in the euros along with towell, brady and gunning with the likes of clifford and hourihane, henderson{injury} and doran{injury} not quite reaching their potential just yet.

Anyone know if he's playing well for Forest this year? I know he's in the team but I've seen very little reported about his performances. I see Forest are in the relegation zone so its a different experience to last year when Leicester we winning most weeks.

Forest were on tv a few weeks ago he played well tidy on ball and pacey. He was keeping elokobi and higgonbottom out who are quite experienced premier league full backs
