If he doesn't fancy WBA i can't see him fancying Palace, despite having some very decent players and nowhere near the worst team in the league they'll be in big trouble this year. Plus if Mangala goes it all but confirms the nightmare scenario of us actually signing Jonny fucking Evans. Sign Sanchez, Arsenal bring in Evans, we keep Mangala and we sign a left back out of nowhere. That's the ideal deadline day for us.

Mangala would be a good signing for WBA.
The only good games Mangala had for us were hen he was asked to mark a target man or when we were defending deep.
At Palace, with the way they want to play now, his touch and habit of vacating his position will be exposed.
But if anyone from CPFC is reading this... ignore the above, he'd be brilliant, 23m is a bargain!

If it's true it's a very good offer. Only made a few hours ago apparently.
The only reason I can see for us delaying an answer is if Arsenal are adamant on wanting a player, then Mangala is probably the best we can offer them.
why the fuck would arsenal want mangala haha

London might draw him there, and the manager.
I'd gladly swap Mangala + 7m for Evans. Evans is decent. Mangala is a trainwreck

I literally can't believe we are contemplating shipping him out and then buying Evans. If Pep is such a great coach, coach him to be a decent fill-in! He played him all pre-season and he didn't look out of place. Yes, he doesn't have world class touch and will never be mistaken for David Silva, but the notion that even a back-up defender has to have world class touch is ridiculous.
City are literally spending hundreds of millions shuffling players through the squad because Pep wants every single player to be the finished article when they show up. He appears to believe his job is just showing them how to enact his tactics. Seriously, the money being spent at this point is obscene!
Sanchez and Evans for £100M on deadline day? Absolute bollocks and only plays into the hands of fans complaining they are being priced out by £50 for a ticket!

"finished article"
Ederson, 23
Mendy, 22
Bernardo, 22
Stones, 21
Sane, 20
G.Jesus, 19
Pep is a great coach but Mangala is unworkable and he certainly did look out of place in preseason.
Stop worrying about money. Oxlade Chamberlain with 1 yr on his contract just went for £40m. Coutinho is going for £120+m
