Eliaquim Mangala

LOL incredible :lol:

But I don't see us splashing out £30-35million on a new defender yet. Though the fact they held discussions with City suggests they'll negotiate under his release clause.. Even then, it's one hefty fee to pay for a 23-year old.

I think he's worth the cash. Would be a star player at either United or City so I hope he doesn't go to one of them.

He'd become a monster under José. Maybe if Luiz is sold and he feels we need another CB to replace him.

No... WE DON'T NEED HIM.

Should Luiz leave, MAYBE we might go after another CB either Varane or Mangala...but I dont realy see need to get CB. Both frenchies are great defenders and I would like to see them here, but they are not required. We have Cahill and Terry who will hold for another season and then Zouma, Kalas, Iva to fill Terry departure.

Overrated athlete, almost shocked he's not English. Let City buy this expensive French NT bench warmer who wont ever develop brain, judgining by his comments through years

I hope we actually start getting linked to players we need. Once the market is officially opened, we have to do our business as swiftly as possible for a world-class CM and a good, young LB. I also wouldn't mind another winger or number 10 as I'm yet to be convinced by the quality of Schurrle, Willan or Salah.

It's good that the Costa deal already seems sorted, so that's a +1 for our board.

BUT if we start dragging our feet, another 3rd place finish is on the cards. The summer is the most important part of next season.

He's a liability in defence. He's very fast and can recover some mistakes, but he keeps flying everywhere to get the ball, vacating his spot.

But a top manager might make him calm down a bit.

Tbh if we do sell Luiz, I'd rather someone like Phil Jones or even Varane who have proven themselves in leagues better than the Portuguese. Also we don't need 2 new CBs, just the one if Luiz goes. Kalas looks more than ready to play a lot more based on the Liverpool performance.

Despite Mangala's comments that he preferred Chelsea to City because of their London location, it is understood José Mourinho is not interested in the £35m-rated defender, clearing the way for City to buy him.

I bet he ends up going for less than the insane prices rumored.

Don't even think City are going to spend that much on a CB this summer. If he really pushes for a move I think he goes for significantly less than £35m. He'll be very good when surrounded by other top players too.

I heard that there have been discussions with Manchester City about Mangala, but the clubs did not reach an agreement.

With Luiz leave, if, if and if Jose think we need CB replacement. I think we should go for Mangala. There is better chance we could get Mangala than Varane, I think.
