Any one fancy being a gentleman or lady and give me a run down of his reputation, skillset and talent?
He's a ****.

But he's our ****..
He can room with that lad we got from Malaga last year for away trips. :)

Physically he's a beast, fast and super strong but he's raw makes mistakes, when I watched him a few times he would lunge in for challenges he can't win every now and them. I think he'll have to adjust the pace of the premier league but physically no problems and with our high line his pace is going to be a bonus.

Course we've not bought him yet, so lets see what happens!!

He's still sat on his arse in Madrid - presumably waiting for a flight.

No, he's waiting for city to send his dad a meal ticket

PORTO PAIR COULD COST MAN CITY €64M

Manchester City will have to stump up a combined €64 million to land long-term targets Eliaquim Mangala and Fernando from Porto.

The Premier League leaders made a move for both players in January, but the deal broke down.

Rivals Manchester United are also understood to have enquired about Mangala, but Porto believe the centre-back is bound for the Etihad Stadium.

Porto own 56.67 per cent of Mangala's rights, but 90% of Fernando's.

And, in what could prove to be a complicated transfer, City may be able to put together a cheaper deal for the pair by paying more for Fernando than Mangala - despite the defender being valued at €18m more than the midfielder - so Porto pocket more of the total fee, rather than a third party.

Mangala is valued at €46m but City could get him for €12m less, while Fernando is now seen to be worth €30m after signing a contract extension in January.

Monaco put together a similar deal last season for Porto pair Joao Moutinho and James Rodriguez, who moved to France in a combined €80m deal.

Re: Eliaquim Mangala

Those numbers are slightly out but the theory is right. Ive been told its £40m for the pair with a reduced fee for mangala and a better fee for fernando as it means porto get more for themselves. Porto really are geniuses in their scouting and selling networks but also the way they bring decent players to be top players worth alot of money!
