It could be You for ManciniBy ANTONY KASTRINAKIS

NEW Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini is set to make Younes Kaboul his first signing in a shock £8million January swoop.
City are looking to bring in the much-improved Portsmouth star during next month's transfer window.

And it is believed a switch could be completed in the next few days. A source close to the deal said: "There is firm interest from Manchester City so we shall see how it develops in the next few days."

With £24m summer signing Joleon Lescott out until mid-February, Mancini desperately needs cover at the back.

And cash-strapped South Coast outfit Pompey are ready to offload their French centre-back.

Kaboul, 23, has adapted to the rigours of the Premier League at Fratton Park after an indifferent start to his career in England with Tottenham.

He has been one of the mainstays of Pompey's starting line-up this season and has even netted three times in 20 appearances, his last goal coming in a 1-1 draw at Sunderland on December 12.

The ex-France Under-21 international can also play as a defensive midfielder and can give Mancini different options.

His Pompey nickname is Useless Younes - remember Useless Eustace? Played for Sheff Wednesday.

Kaboul Shit.

You are under playing it there. Shocking shocking player, spuds offloaded him in less than a season. Hes much worse than any of the centre halves we curently have at the club, must surely be bollocks. Anyway they cant buy or sell any players at the moment anyway.

Would be a worse buy than Tal the Terrible but for more money!

 

[Tony - MCFC]

has to be a wind up, no way!

This really doesnt justify a responce. One of the worst players in the league by a big margin. We would be an even bigger laughing stock if we signed a terrible defender from bottom club in the league, its not going to happen.

Jesus wept! Kaboul is really scraping the barrell

After recent results I know what you mean, but think we are at least one step up from Pompey.
