Jonny Evans

[BigOscar]

He can also play LB

For West Brom maybe, for a team who actually wants their fullbacks to be something more than another tall guy for set pieces, not a chance.

They've got a different view to here.

I can't bare to look. What do they say?

 

[Ruzzles]

this is a deadline day, last minute, grab anything, type of signing... there's 2 weeks left.

This doesn't make any sense at all.

 

[Dobsy]

Would prefer to just see tosin given games tbh.

 

[Nigel De Shlong]

city with the best smokescreen of all time, hopefully..

 

[johnmc]

I'd have him.

I'd dare say he's the best homegrown centre half we could get and that's likely a big factor.

 

[Ric]

For what it's worth, West Brom fans rate him highly.

Think you're gonna find most transfer windows equally uncomfortable then. ;) We've got a manager who clearly believes the best way to defend is to attack and score first and score quickly.

I think that is not a tactic of the side at all. The team, particularly with three at the back, is more likely to score when the opposition tires and fails to control the space. It happened at Bayern and is similar here. Great bet next year level half time - city full time.

 

[Lomas has a lob on]

Im not bowled over by this news but in my opinion he is better than Mangala!

which we don't do. Ever. 2013/14 away at the Rags is how we should be starting 99 games out of 100, in fact Liverpool v Arsenal that season is more apt as they scored enough goals in the first 20 minutes.

Which is precisely why Pep wants another world class forward and is happy to buy a cheap 4th choice centre back.
