Yup.
I posted in the CB thread 2/3 weeks ago that the signing of Inigo Martinez was put on a priority after the Girona/Sociedad game. It's going to happen early Jan, no doubt in my mind
Wouldn’t that be dependant on if Mangala wants to leave and if we can find a buyer for him?

It wouldn't surprise me Mangala going on loan until the end of the season.
He will want to give himself an opportunity to go to the World Cup.

Pep says he is staying,we won't be letting anyone go in jan even if we buy imo,CB's are notorious for taking time to settleIt wouldn't surprise me Mangala going on loan until the end of the season.

Thats the problem though mateNo chance we'll pay that. Offer them 10-15m, or wait for the summer and pick him up for free
If we wait for summer and AS is on a free, the big boys in Spain can lure him over there with the carrot of playing for the worlds biggest clubs and guaranteed silverware (and better weather)
My prediction is that he will join us in Jan for a fee of 40 million.

My understanding is that we are his preferred option, as he wants to play for Pep. But if he's swayed by something like the weather, perhaps he's not right for us.Thats the problem though mate

I meant the weather as an added bonus not a primary reasonDid you move to Australia for better weather?

80% is understandable if the weather is so important to you, and you don’t like a temperate climate. Why do people assume that this matters to anyone but themselves? We’re all different. Some people like our climate (especially to play football in) to others it’s a long way down their pecking order in terms of importance and lifestyle choices.I meant the weather as an added bonus not a primary reason

Blimey, talk about knit picking !180% is understandable if the weather is so important to you, and you don’t like a temperate climate. Why do people assume that this matters to anyone but themselves?

I mentioned the weather as a possible side issue ffs, I mentioned the chance to play for the biggest clubs in the world as the primary reason, and the guaranteed silverware.
And yes he may prefer cold weather, but he was born in a hot place (Northern Chile) so one may assume he would prefer a Barcelona or Madrid climate.

Get this lad in! He is at the level of Silva and De Bruyne and just a little step up from Sane, Aguero and Sterling. We need him. Also Can is a step up on Gundolan and I would go for him in January too.
You must be kidding about Can, Gundo is easily twice the player Can will ever be. Let him find his rhythm. #NeverForget the barca game. Although, I would love to have Can as an option (for free).

Sanchez is about as versatile as they come. I'd have absolutely no issues with him playing in central midfield.Playing Sanchez in a central midfield role will settle minds... not sure on that mate.
After the reports today that Silva is a doubt for the Derby, let's say Sanchez was already at City, could you thing of a better replacement for Silva with the squad we have?
I can't.

Come on now, he isn't comparable to Silva in any way.

Someone listened to the interview with Marti in the 93:20 pod ? He said something about Sanchez ?

Barcelona maybe, it's 3 degrees in Madrid today and colder than here. It's regularly cool in Madrid through winter. Probably doesn't piss it down as much and summer, well they have one.

I never said he was. What I said was outside of our perceived first 11, if Sanchez was at City now and Silva needed to be replaced, can anyone think of a better replacement for him?He'd probably replace Stones, too!

I notice his knit picking all the time. Tiresome.
