Jonny Evans

This doesn't change anything for him. Evans is coming in and Mangala will be moved on either in January or the summer. So he'll still have the same number of players ahead of him in the pecking order

So which Italian club are we going to have to pay to take Mangala on loan then?

I suspect we'll get a top class CH in the summer assuming Komps stays that gives us Stones, Ota, Top class CH,Komps, Evans & Tosin.

Think he'll be off sadly without having had what I would say was a chance.

Personally would play Dinho at CB if we need to, and buy a DM. Has Walker ever played there? If so Danilo fills in at RB. I thought Pep was good at this sort of lateral thinking. Can't believe we are going to shellout so much unless Pep really thinks he can turn Evans into a star. Spending this much on a guy who will be 4th choice come the summer makes no sense.

He's cheap as chips and he covers Mangala who most claim isn't good enough. Possibly Pep thinks I could be without Stones or Otamendi in a Champions League game and be reliant on Mangala and he doesn't want to be in that situation.

I think it's a sensible but unexciting move.

Don't be so stupid, we have a plethora of top class clubs chasing him. Will end up going to Luton on loan no doubt haha.

F-ck me where do you buy your chips?

So is this the end of Tosin's City career?

It would seem he isn't rated by Pep

Mangala was £42m. Stones £50m. Full backs cost £50m. City don't want to rely on Mangala but if we buy another mangala from Portugal etc, it would take them a year to settle in, and cost a bomb. Evans could settle in with minimal trouble. It makes sense and minimises a risk.
