I think you're going to be in for a nasty surprise next season if you think pep's going to be able to play the same style of football he's been successful with previously. The premier league is the most competitive league for a reason, and it's not because all the teams want to play pretty football.

Its always been the most competitive league , and we have won the league twice playing football by dominating possesion, he wont change his style of play because its the PL.

I would take mangala against an Andy Carroll, Costa type of forward all day over stones.
Mangala is a defender stones is a football player

Which is why Mangala might still be around for the next few years even if most seem to think he is toast. Also I expect us to play 3 at the back at least part of the time so our CD's will have plenty of work.

I think why Nolito is done this quickly is because there was not any negotiations with Celta Vigo, just triggering clause. Negotiating a fee with Everton.... could take a while

No,Stones is better in every department IMO,positionally,defensively,technically and physically - he also has a bigger heart,something that was lacking in Nastasic.

Yish! Where were you when I had to defend Stones against the anti-Stones Brigade. ( just had to use that phrase :p) Anyway. I agree wholeheartedly with the above.

For this reason, ID take Stones over Mangala in against any opponent. Footballer first, every time. Thank God we have Pep, I think he shares that view too. :)

I think it will happen, but wouldn't like to say when. Think it's just a case of agreeing a fee with Everton.

I like Mangala,he's been given a rough ride. He's made mistakes but young enough to improve under a proper coach. Stones though is different class. Where others get caught out he chests it down on to a knee and plays it to one of his own men. If vinny stays fit alongside him we will be awesome at the back.
 
Not having the Bony story because I don't think Lukaku's going anywhere. However wouldn't surprise me in the least if they asked for Hart as part of the Stones deal.
 
Wouldn'T believe anything I ever read in the SIN, even if they were to said that it is set to either rain or get dark before morning.
