Re: Eliaquim Mangala

Is it normal that City haven't released a single photo of the group training session? If he's there it could mean an embargo on said photos... I thought we would have seen something by now.

inb4 the the news he hasn't even flown into Manchester yet.

Normally first day is covered with thousand of photos and movies.

Re: Eliaquim Mangala

If he hasn't been training with us today or at the latest tomorrow its time to pull the plug and walk away we have a nightmare start to the season and we need him to be comfortable with the other CB's and have the foundations of a solid partnership started before our season starts plus he needs the training for fitness Im assuming he hasn't returned to Porto, its not like we a signing him for a bargain price or anything and we already have Kompany, MDM, Nastasic, Rekik and Boyata. We can try again in January but would rather start with Kompany and MDM then a player who missed most of pre season, will be lack fitness and match sharpness. Im not bothered if he comes or not think they are plenty of solid CB's out there and IMHO Rekik is a step up on Lescott. Just worried if we leave it much later he could cost us points as he is trying to settle in.

The flap is strong in this one.

I had a girlfriend who used to play hard to get, too. Drove me mad. But it works, I never even used to know about Mangala, and now I feel like sobbing into my pillow if he's not announced today.

You should seek help.

I'm just attention seeking, ignore me.

Not looking likely that he will sign today. The flapping continues.

Birds of a feather...
