What we need is 4 excellent centre backs with 2 being top notch, we have 1 top notch centre back who could quite easily miss large parts of the season. If people think relying on kompany, hoping stones improves and otamendi gets more consistent is great then fair enough. Adding an average defender to the mix is not a solution.

We should have been trying our utmost to find a replacement for kompany not a third rate back up to him. Unless we get lucky the centre back situation will turn into the mess that was our fullback fiasco.
I don't disagree with that although I suspect Evans will turn out to be a better than you think i.e. second rate not third rate.
 
My anger about this is nothing to do with him being a rag. The point is, he clearly isn't good enough to justify spending that money on him and alienating the entire academy. We can keep Mangala (who is a better player than him) and use Tosin as backup. If he wasn't good enough for united, why would he be good enough for City? He''s playing for West Brom for goodness sake.

Txiki has got to leave the club in my opinion. Complete disregard for us fans when it comes to transfers. First signing Walker (who has criticised the club in the past) and then trying to sign a through and through united player when there are hundreds of better centre backs around.

"Nothing to do with being a rag" in first line then Txiki must go for trying to sign an out and out rag in the last part. Do you argue with yourself much?
 
Anything in life is possible but when you look at the simple facts that he wasn't good enough for the rags, has ended up at wba and in the last decade no big club apart from Arsenals brief attempt no top club has ever tried to sign him. I don't even remember any poster on here even mentioning his name so it seems a bit silly some are now of the opinion this is good.

Happy clapping big blue at its finest.

He wasnt good enough for Van Gaal
 
Every single one of those players is better than Johnny Evans.

You will never ever be able to convince me Mangala is a better defender than Evans.
Having the raw pace and athleticism to make you potentially a beast is great; but he is an utterly abysmal footballer.
Backs to the wall I will take Evans over that disaster every time without fail

That second part is about Txiki, not Johnny Evans.

I don't want City to sign him because he isn't good enough. I don't like Txiki because he doesn't give a shit about City fans.
 
Pep thought chygryskiy would be a great signing. He does make mistakes.

This kind of crap is plain boring: every fucking manager and DoF gets it wrong in the transfer market: players quite often don't work out for all sorts of reasons. And club's like our rarely buy players based on one person's opinion. Pep and Txiki don't just sit in a room and pull players' names out of the air.
 
IF we can get him for £25m and is not on silly wages, then fair enough it could work out in our favour (even with Evans' United connections).

I think peoples opinions of evans as a player are clouded by the fact that he is/was a rag. We always look at them as worse than they actually are.

He wasn't good enough for a crap rag team a few years ago so do you honestly think he's improved by playing for the mackems and baggies and is good enough for us?

In all seriousness and being honest and removing the fact that he's a rag I honestly don't think he's anywhere near the standard we require.
