Mangala joins Valencia on a Permanent deal

[TonyM]

Always liked him. I wish him the best.

Best of luck to the Mangler! For the lack of options he seemed to have I doubt he can complain about a CL side that he's played for before. Would be nice to get Valencia in the group stage!

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Valencia was probably where he had his most successful season from what I read. He always seemed like the sort of player we should have signed when Mancini was the manager, but never really fit into the style of football we were trying to play under Pellegrini and Pep. Anyway, nice to see him get a club.

We should have tried to convert him to a left back as he'd been great emergency cover.
But first we should have tried to convert him to a footballer.
Feel sorry for the lad, reminded me of a giraffe on rollerskates every time he played.

 

[pudge]

What a life he has lived

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

How much we get, surely 20-30 mil?

We paid Valencia 20 mil to sign him; )

Hope someone steals his passport after a day of arriving in Valencia

 

[FantasyIreland]

He gave and tried his best,it didn't work out.

Best wishes to him.

 

[BlueMojito]

Wish him all the best. He needs a fresh start. Just didn't work out for him here, he just seemed to have lost his confidence.

Good luck to Manga, genuinely horrific on the ball but seemed like a decent lad.
