I'll be honest and say I haven't seen much of him since his Villa days but his transfer to City always had the same feel as Rodwell's (he was basically Rodwell's replacement as a homegrown player who could do a job and signed for cheap).

At Villa when he played every week I remember him as a player with a bit of skill, the odd good long shot, and an alright passing range.

I remember when we were first linked to him before he signed for Villa as well and for the first two or three years I never felt like we missed out and was fairly surprised he ended up at City and has stayed as long as he did.

He's an alright player but at the end of his career and doesn't seem to show some of the long-term thought we've seen from Brands and Silva with their signings so far. I'm guessing they both like the idea of getting him for 8 million and throwing what we get for Gueye at another position.
