I dont want him to sign but if he does he goes in ahead of stones for the short term for me. Stonew doesnt look fit to me doesnt look like he is running at full pelt.

Should we throw out Brian Kidd too?

You'd rather play the Mangler eh? After the last few matches. Bilmey we could lose the league yet.


Would rather play Tosin. Give the lad a run of games to show he can play at this level. I think he can do it and should be ahead of Mangala.


I admire the sentiment (no, I do), but at this part of the season one slip and we are out of any of 3 cups. Sometimes I think it's only me wants to win. There is a swell of opinion who would rather we lose but stick to certain dogmas.

But yes he should be ahead of Mangala after recent debacles.

The defensive record with Mangler in the team stands comparison to when he isn't. Stones has dropped more bollocks since he returned to the side than Mangala has

Its the current marketplace ... Mangala's price, for instance, has decrease x 5 since we shelled out £42mil for him

I know this isn't exactly a popular opinion, although I have heard and read some of our fans also think the same, but this will be a good signing for us right now.

Over Mangala every day at this point, and if Stones or Otamendi don't keep their form up or are injured Pep (nor quite a few of our fans) will not feel so worried about their backup getting game time.

Can JFE cover left back? Not sure I've seen him do that.

Tosin rather than Tosser any day of the week. This muppet is a downgrade on Mangala all things considered.

I actually think we should throw out Brian Kidd and get Maradona in to replace him once Aguero is sold in the summer.

He’s better than Mangala but you can’t help but think in the light of Delph getting injured it’s more important for us to buy someone who’s a centre back that can play left back. Like a Boateng (although that won’t happen).

Evans would be OK no frills and won’t be arsed when everyone is fit and he’s not playing.

We do need cover at centre back and left back though.

I reckon it might be better holding onto Kidd at the moment as he could provide some cover at left back. Maradona is never gonna come thou, you are just being silly with that one.

Do you think so mate?

Mee does some good things, some not so good. I'd be worried he got some stick if he came into our team.

Gotta be better than Mangala though. I used to have some sympathy and patience for him. Expiry date has passed!

Me too. He did well preseason and in most of his early games this season. I'm all for giving a player a second season as some need a whole season to get used to the league/country/language etc (otter is an example of this) but Mangala only had a brief happy spell and his price tag is now nothing short of a mugging in broad daylight

Mangala was given a lot of time by me, especially seeing how he plays against the physical players, he is decent. Not may Drogbas around these days though. His performance against Bristol City was so poor that I gave up hoping for him. I can't see him being here at the start of next season (hopefully).
