Transfer Rumour Eliaquim Mangala

[VentureBrosEFC]

...my fear with this deal is that his wages might be dependent on both Sandro and Klaassen leaving. The Klaassen deal looks to have collapsed and it might be difficult moving him on any time soon.

I'd be surprised, if we we're as confident as it sounds, if we weren't willing to pick up 100% of his contract. We have already shipped out Barkley, Lennon, Mirallas, and Sandro so I doubt it would be budgetary concerns. Who knows with us though.

I see that you have been infracted for saying this as you should be.

Correct grammar is not a joke and should not be trivialised in any way you flumping marshmallow.

Oh you mother trucker!

Probably best that I report both of these.

Pair of dipshits.

 

[Bungle]

Oh no.

I actually think Siggurdson should reinvent himself as a deep lying playmaker like a Carrick type. He’s got a great right foot but no pace or agility to play up top at all.

I agree mate..............................................if only!

Eliaquim Mangala is currently in discussions with Everton regarding personal terms, so at the moment the French centre-back’s favoured move is to Goodison Park. However he seemed likely to go to Crystal Palace in the summer and decided against that so he may, again, decide to stay at Manchester City to the end of the season. West Ham United and Newcastle United remain options, too.

Really hope this falls through, this guy plays like bambi on ice when has the ball at his feet.

Walking present to any forward who bothers to press him, and I know this is a stretch but he is no better than what we got......seriously

Actually defending he looked ok it was when he was asked to be franz beckenbauer he looked awful, so in summary in BFS hoof it team he will be a world beater...

Pretty much spot on. In the right system he's a beast. In our team he's asked to do stuff he isn't comfortable with and it affects his confidence. I think he'll look solid in a fat Sam team.

Would be interesting to know what the loan fee is if Newcastle baulked at it.

Consensus seems to be that if you want a no nonsense defender who just puts it into row Z, then he's your man, if you want him to bring the ball out and play a bit, then he's gash. He should be okay then under Sam because he'll want the former.

But mate do you realize who are our CB? Williams Jags...all past it and old.

I can't agree that he is an upgrade, going off what I have seen of him at his time at City, he has no composure which is what we are crying out for, I honestly can't see how this lad is such an upgrade on our carthorses, he's just a younger carthorse, he's a liability and disaster waiting to happen, so not needed in our panic stricken team if you ask me.

I sincerely hope he proves me wrong and needed the loan move to find his feet and hopefully will be better for it in our League, I really hope, fingers crossed.

The last lad who had composure we booed and sold to City.

Not one player in that team who can pass the ball further than 5 yards. Dear lord

Sigurdsson ?

Doesn't have the skill, composure,or passing ability

Mate ?

Have you watched this kid play ?

No upgrade at all

There's composure and then there's over confidence and playing in the wrong areas and your bad decisions cost a lot of goals, but I see what you are saying.

 

[Nymzee]

Lots of secret Man City fans in this thread it seems.

Yes prone to error sometimes due to his inability to pass it out but do did all the CB we have they are all making mistakes in turn.
