Great player. good height, right age, and as you said, experienced in the league....Lomas has a lob on said:I'd prefer us to go all out for Vertonghen than Mangala or the Dutch lad from Celtic.
He knows the league, not only that but he is one of the best defenders playing in it already, he knows Kompany from the national team too.
Levy like normal would demand top dollar, but not as much were rumoured to be happy to pay Porto for Mangala.

Vertongen
Skrtel
Agger
Vermaelen
All excellent defenders, all experienced. All still got quite a few seasons left in them.

Would get a penalty/red every other game for us

I know he's looked vulnerable alongside Terry and Cahill but with a top world class partner he might be okay - certainly has the ball playing skills we need - just a matter of whether we could coach him to be more disciplined and whether Chelsea would sell to us. He has bags of potential and some of the criticism he gets from the likes of Hansen isn't always fair or justified. .. Just a thought - with our high line and pressing this might be ideal for Luiz.

I always thought Sideshow was far better at DM, but then we kind of need cover there as well.
Chavs would never sell to an actual rival, though ;)
