Jose Gimenez

[Dax777]

There's no arguing with him @Dax777 — I've also watched him several times in the flesh, including recently in Phoenix where he was pretty poor against the side that went on to lose 7-nil to Chile in the Copa America (I'm in the US now, Santander be damned), and to me he is very much in the Puyol/Otamendi mould.

But, perhaps are eyes deceive us.

He is. I just don't have the interest in arguing with someone who doesn't know what he's talking about. Not worth the effort.

Because Stones has Smalling and Cahill in front of him. Arguably more solid players. Same thing with Gimenez, he was playing behind Savic and Godin. While Denayer is behind Ciman and Meuniere. I mean come on. If Denayer was behind Alderweireld and Vertonghen I understand.

I'm sorry. But Denayer for Belgium is only a CB. Wilmots don't see him as a RB. Never played there for Belgium. So Smalling is a better option than Stones for us? And wasn't Savic a City reject? But whatever mate. Just keep looking for the 50million players from other clubs. So much better ...

He played RB in the friendlies before the Euros I think. Some sort of trial for him I guess. He didn't pass.

It was only to sort out the CB position and the RB was not fit. So they used Denayer. But are we judging Denayer as a RB? We don't with the others ...

He played the whole season with Galatasaray as a RB. And if you want to be frank, that's where he will play at City. He is at the bottom of the CB totem pole at City unfortunately. Vinny Otamendi and Stones will be above him.

Wrong again mate. Started as RB. Injured. Finished (strongly) as CB. But if you want to compare him from a RB position than also do this with Stones and Giminez. Oh wait ... Denayer is also more versatile in your opinion.
Btw. When did we signed Stones?

I still think the best way for Denayer to get minutes for our club is to play RB. He's not gonna leapfrog Kompany, Otamendi, Stones (if we sign him of course), and definitely not Gimenez (if we sign him too).

Who would Gimenez (or Stones) replace if Mangala, Kompany, Ota and Denayer are in the squad??

Eliaquim Mangala is now set to stay at City this summer, after they failed to sign Aymeric Laporte. [Star]

If we buy a CB and he's not better than Mangala then whoever identifies 'that' player needs to be instantly sacked.... including the manager if its him ;)

Good, i would love to see him given a chance in a side coached by Pep, why spunk £50 million on another centre half without giving him a go unless Pep feels he is totally wank.

I still think he will come good in the right system ala Savic.
