Transfer Rumour Eliaquim Mangala

[TheBlueGibbon]

He can't do worse than Williams surely?

 

[Nymzee]

Holgate/Keane - Mangala/Funes Mori

It'll do.

Upgrade from Williams and Jags. But in the Sakho mode for me. Bit of a head case who switches off and thinks he can play football on the floor when he can't.

In fairness, that is not such a condemnation as it might first appear! If one side boasts Kompany and Zabaletta and the other boasts Clichy and Mangala, i know which side i wouls focus my attackers on too!

Probably to play the pair together, as the rest bar Holgate have been truly awful and Holgate will need a rest at some point.

..two left sided CBs together after having none for so long.

All this being said, if it reduces the chances of me watching Phil Jagielka play for Everton in the year 2018 I am all for this.

If he wasn't crap you could argue why have City bought Stones, Otamendi and Laporte since they signed him.

If he was crap you could argue why the richest team in the world bought him. Unless of course your barometer of crap is someone who is not world class?

He's not much of an upgrade though. We're proper gash at transfers

 

[Nymzee]

It's only a loan anyway what's everyone whinging about.

 

[Bebeto]

Underrated player...played quite a bit at city and played a lot last year at Valencia...only 26 so room for improvement...hopefully we will have an option to buy at the end of the season.

 

[Bebeto]

What' the point with Mori nearly back?

So that Funes can play left back maybe? Anyhow Funes still some way off full training according to big Sam...

 

[Milkman]

He's actually pretty good, but whatever, let's just whinge about it. I for one would love nothing more than the end of watching Jagielka and Williams.

He's an upgrade on Jagielka in the sense that he's got functioning limbs and no beer gut.

Have you actually watched him play in this league?

We should have been in for Marc Bartra, with a few to a permanent deal. He’s signed for Real Betis, I know sams football doesn’t suit the lads style but a few months and a decent manager in the summer we should have tried to get that one done, mangala is dreadful, big lump if we are after that kind of player we’d be better looking down in the championship and buying someone who’s hungry and raw and deserves a move. Mangala will come here pick up his wages and not care as he will go back to city end of season, situation everton Are In we need a left back and CB that can actually defend and want it.
