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

I rate him, saw him a few times last year and he impressed me every time. Confident on bringing the ball out of defence, which is what I assume Pep is attracted too.

I know someone close to this and it is going to happen.....it's all down to WBA agreeing to it he has an agreement with Pulis if a top 4 club come in for him as long as it suits WBA he can go

Does he want to come to us, given his history with the red shite?
 
I think he will surprise a few of you guys....he can play he's 2 footed good in the air can cover full back reads the game well and is very experienced and knows the prem
I don't think for one minute he is coming here to be 1st choice but added to the squad he looks a decent option to me
Take away the fact he played for the rags and view it objectively

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.

I bet you any money that we play 433 more often than we play 3 at the back this season.

For the record we created two absolutely glorious chances which Kun/Jesus fluffed in the first 20 minutes of the Brighton game. So I don't agree with your assessment at all. I also remember Pep saying often last season that we missed too many chances early in games and that made things more difficult later on.
 
I have spent the last 10yrs slagging this fella off to my Rag mates
If he comes to my club,that's it
I cannot embrace him as I would a new signing,as that would make me a hypocrite
Let's hope is not going to happen

Trying to view this as if he hadn't played for the scum.. this is very hard to do. But actually he's not that bad.. still only 29 which isn't ancient for a centre back and he's very experienced in the prem. could actually be decent but this has very much come out of the blue

Fair do's. And most will give him the chance to prove himself I'm sure. Just the one chance mind.
 
I homely can't believe I'm saying this but having calmed down Evans is a much better option than Mangala - and he's homegrown.
 
He's nowhere near as bad as people make out but he's always been a non-fashionable player who has received far more stick than he deserved.

Very similar to Richard Dunne or Gaz Baz in that sense. Proper professional players who seem to get the brunt end of it whilst others around them get off scot free.

He's better than Gibson who we've been linked with and IMO he's more reliable than Keane, both homegrown CBs who have been valued/sold for £25+ million.
 
OMG - embarrassing load of over indulged flappers some City fans have become! Interesting the posters I actually do listen to are NOT any of them thankfully.

Knew there was a reason put him on the bench in my lads fantasy team. Solid squad signing if he comes. Wil make the rags squirm even more when they see him celebrate end of season glory . . . hopefully
