Eliaquim Mangala - now official

Re: Eliaquim Mangala

It's more than a little odd that another club could approach City for a player and a deal is signed, sealed and delivered inside a couple of days, yet when we attempt to recruit a player ourselves, it just drags on for week after week. Considering that we have released Lescott, and Rodwell too (assuming that he really could fill in at CB), then a little urgency from ourselves regarding a replacement would hardly go amiss.

Rodwell wasn't owned by 3rd parties, and how exactly do you know it was done in a couple of days? It could have been started weeks ago.

He wouldn't have been in America if that was the case.

You can't really compare a fringe player with the world class talent wanted by most teams on the planet.

When he's an injury prone player yet worth £10m to us, I'd be wanting him wrapped up in cotton wool!

How many minutes did he play in America?

I know it's Rodwell we're talking about but wouldn't you say that playing just 13 minutes was wrapping him in cotton wool?

Why the feck is everyone flapping?

We've got until the end of August and as long as DMD and Kompany are fit then why spazz out.
