Have to agree, not seen anything to justify a £30m price tag never mind £50M? His 2 biggest assets are he is young and he is English, but that's not enoughBang on.

Personally I think a decent coach would be able to get more out of the Otamendi/Mangala partnership.
Bring the young Belgian lad back and bring in an older more experienced CB as backup.
I'm of the opinion that if you've got talent and the right physical characteristics then a good coach should be able to coach a CB partnership - if not the manager then hire a specific coach and if you do neither your at the wrong club.

I think if that's your view then you haven't actually watched him enough, he is quick, reads the game well and is good at timing tackles, yes he is not worth £50 mill but I believe a deal could be done at around £35mill which is steep but at the same time he is better than Mangalafor a similar price!Have to agree, not seen anything to justify a £30m price tag never mind £50M?

As for shawcross he's not even as good as Lescott and he's a red ****

Yep. Chelsea bid £38m which was turned down and then they gave up. (someone can correct me if im wrong)Didnt they knock back more than £35m in the summer?
No that was what Chelsea offered but it was much about fucking Chelsea off because they were twats about the hole saga.Didnt they knock back more than £35m in the summer?

Reads like a copy and paste from the Sterling transfer thread ;)

We are his most obvious destination. He put a transfer request to try and force a move to Chelsea so there's every chance of him doing the same again for us. The deal could be done at the end of January for £40m, it depends how much we want him.
Ryan Shawcross if not Stones.
Good shout, always thought Shawcross could make it at a top 4 club. Look at Stokes defensive record this season, extremely impressive.
