Mangala/Otamendi/Kompany/Laporte.

Shit or old and past it.
Laporte looks the real deal but you never know.

So did Otamendi last season, even Mangala looked a lot better at Porto than he does now. Guardiola isn't known for improving his defenders but they can hardly get worse than they've been this year.

Klaus

I think Otamendi has been pretty good this season all things considered. He struggled for a bit when he arrived and people seem to be a little slow to adjust those initial impressions of him. He did a carrying job for City's defence while Kompany was out though. I'd expect him to be back to his old level next season.

Mangala is one of the worst players I have seen though. He's so fucking shit it drives me mad. Someone needs to investigate what happened to the money from that transfer. I bet there was some shady stuff going on there.

Oh no, I'm sure there was nothing dodgy about a transfer involving Qataris, two hedge funds, and Jorge Mendes.

How shit has mangala looked? Only about as rubbish as sterling who can't get a game over barge pole Jesus navas.

Point for city is that they will continue to buy players and get it wrong but will find the de bruyne and aguerontypes often enough to make it worthwhile. We are still waiting for our 2006 signings to match up to their potential.

Rex really rated Mangala

Mangala was very good in Portugal, but for whatever reason he hasn't worked out at City.

Told you, you make it easy for us 😉

Bild say Lepizig want Horn, Volland and Embolo.

I think a lot Citys player are going to look a lot better under Pep. Otamendi is a good player he'll improve next season.

It'll help that City will have 70% of the ball in every match.

Claudius

Ricky, they'll need to change all their central midfielders to achieve that. Gundogan will be a start in that direction. Toure and all the Fernando derivatives will not be able to play keep ball for 70% of the time. Silva, De Bruyne and maybe Sterling is a start, but that team doesn't scream tikki takka.

Higuain linked to Chelsea in this morning's papers. Rumor goes on to say Diego Costa could go to China 😆
If Higuain happens and we start with Giroud, I'll just quit watching.

jones

Higuain is on 33 goals now in the league, highest goals total in Italy since the 1950s. Still in with a good chance for both Golden Boot where he's behind only Suárez and the Serie A record of 36 goals from the 1920s. If Chelsea get him I'll definitely break something.

Cheer up. There's always the possibility of us starting with Walcott or Welbeck instead next season.

Sorry dude that's not even funny.

If Higuain moves and goes to a PL rival, then when he plays at Emirates the AFC fans should chant at AW "You fucked up".
