Centre back options

[Mike D]

Kone at sunderland would be decent back up strong and quick and can chip in with a few goals.

Scraping the barrel here lads

I'd have Mangala or Denya over either of those 2.

 

[Thenumber1blue]

Would rather have this one

And me he's wank, reminds me of the days people were recommending players like Le Fondre and Etherington

Anyone else think we should just keep Mangala as our 4th centre-back option?

not that it's relevant to his defensive ability, but had some fun watching this earlier: http://www.mcfcwatch.com/2017/08/10...erhead-kick-goal-in-manchester-city-training/

If Mangala was going to stay this season Pep would've come out and said so already imo

 

[Wolfkin]

Both midfielders ^^

Wrong thread. Moved to 'Balance sheet'.

I hope we keep him. And Nasri too. Unless we can get much better.

Me Too. I think he could do well if he stays.

Good news to me if true.

Would be pretty annoyed if Spurs got Davinson Sanchez for €35m in a summer where we want a CB, and we hadn't had a really good look at him.

Maybe we have. It just has not been made public.

De Ligt is better. If City want one of the Ajax CBs they should wait a year and buy De Ligt for around the same amount.

Lined up to replace alderwield next year I'd reckon

 

[Leech]

Yep, definitely has the talent to deserve a chance under Guardiola.

Dutch media now reporting that as of this afternoon Spurs has had no contact with Ajax they do so say there is an incredible amount of interest in Sanchez from all over Europe

De Ligt is a Mbappe level talent he has everything and the most impressive part of it all is his mentality and his maturity at the age of 17 (like Foden) he will most likely become one of if not the best defender in the world when he keeps developing like he has in his Ajax career in the youth teams and the first team

'If' he keeps developing. There's the rub.

I know this woulsnt fill many with confidence, but he is a lot like John Stones. A bit more defensive aggression. But similar brain, confidence and vision.

I like him a lot. Far more than I do Sanchez.
