Otamendi

That probably did the trick, kippaxman.

That was mild compared to what I said to Collymore but then again I am sure they both aren't losing any sleep over it :-)

All summer long just sucking on a bitter lemon and needlessly sounding like a big fanny.

I told you not to bother replying to me . Just fuck right off. Please.

i am thinking that maybe MDM is going back to Argentina sooner than later, also Kompany could suffer an injury, he is doing great this season though and hope does not happen. The whole Denayer discussion is a bit over the top, he is a very young talent and will have plenty of chances to play, with the cup games and he is part of the squad. he could leave on a loan to a premier league team. Thats what we need at the moment, a team in the premier league where we can send our best prospects and get them warranteed game time.

Awesome.

Ok who has already started growing a beard?

Anyone else think if Stones goes to chelsea. Everton would be perfect to send Denayer on loan too.

 

[CC1]

Bizzare move. He is class but this will destroy the confidence of both Mangala and denayer.

Might have opposite effect as the pressure is off them. They've got support and can learn from more experienced CBs

 

[Blue Budgie]

Not shy of a tackle is our Nic.A fookin beast!

 

[ninjamonkey]

I predict he will be suspended quite a bit with the way he likes to dive in so plenty of chances for the other centre backs to play.

The other side of this window...:

"Manchester City has spent in a year 85m Euro in two central defenders (and supposed to be only one of the two, who will alternate with Kompany")



:/

I'm predicting quite a few reds.

Fristly we don't want to take tips on youth development from Chelsea.

Secondly, Varane does play regularly and he's THIRD choice behind a 33 y/o Pepe, who will retire soon.

Denayer is at best 4th choice behind 3 guys in their 20's.

I also disagree about Demichelis. The only reason he's coming on at the end of games is because Fernando and Delph are injured.

Agree with this

Might be wrong but what top club in world football has more than three senior centre backs

Madrid - ramos (who can play rb), varane and pepe

munich - dante, boateng, benatia

barce - mashcerano, pique, bartra

chelsea - terry, zouma ( who can muliple positions), cahill

Such a strange deal this considering how Denayer performed last season at places the san siro and away to france.

from Ragcafe, lol:


Who do I blame for this?

UEFA/Platini/whoever for being too lenient?
Otamendi for being a glory-hunting cock?
Woodward for not trying?
LVG for not wanting?
Redcafe transfer thread for getting my hopes up?
FM2013 for even alerting me to this guy?

Actually I'm going to vent it all towards Johnny Evans

 

[RS7]

So we have lost Denayer (his agents comments basically confirm we have taken the piss out of him). I am fuming, he is the best young CB in europe for me.
We also risk losing Mangala, if we drop him for Otamendi which i expect will happen.
Stupid deal for me (and no im not a fucking rag).

Welcome to the Beardgang lads ;)

I think what would damage Denayer more would be if due to injury or suspension, he was given a run of games and made a few high profile mistakes. He played exceptional last season in a team that dominates the rest of the division.
A 20 year old wouldn't be able to shake it off like an experienced international pro. He needs easing into the first team set up, not given a baptism of fire.
I think a loan move until January might do him good but it has to be in a competitive league. Then he can return in time for the inevitable injuries and suspensions of the second half of the season, with first team experience.

You do a fucking great impression.

I'm predicting quite a few reds.

Looks to have very good timing, though, all in all. Vinny can be the same sometimes.
