Would be Kompany if he wasn't made of glass. I'd like to see how good Mangala can become under pep, so Mangala for me.

Without injuries Vinny shits all over every other defender in the world, bar none. But, and it's a big but, (but not as big as my butt) I would go with the Mangler. Superb athlete, great attitude, dominates big centre forwards (anyone see the mighty Zlatan go within 20 yards of him over the 2 games?) and he will improve a lot over the next few years if the new manager shows confidence in him.

Otamendi.
Kompany is either a first team player or nothing. He leaves too much of an organisational void when he's unavailable. If he's not going to be able to play 30+ PL games and all CL games then I think it would sadly be time to say farewell.
If Kompany cannot play 30+ Pl games and all CL games then we need to bring in someone who can organise the back 4. Neither Mangala or Otamendi can do that. It would be expecting too much of possible signings such as Stones or Laporte to do it in their first season. Ditto Denayer.
My preference would be to keep Otamendi rather than Mangala. But it would depend on what type of player we brought in to replace Kompany. If its a player of similar size and physique as Kompany then definitely keep Otamendi. If its a smaller, less physical player then keep Mangala.

Or we could just buy Phil Jones to make all the other centre halves look better?
I made the mistake of writing something similar for one of my first posts.
Get Jones, get Micah back and we'll have our defence sorted for the next ten years.

I would like to see how Otamendi plays at right back, same with Mangala on the left. Maybe would not offer much offensively, however could offer a solid robust defence.
