Mehdi Benatia

[TonyM]

Chatted to a long-standing friend from Turin (Juventus fan) yesterday and asked him about Benatia, his reply: 'Absolutely fantastic, very hard, skilful, a very, very good player'.

Good enough for me!

This excites me more than Fabregas. Seems like a Fernandinho type signing.

how come my posts never go through on this forum?

Because posts for new users have to be manually approved by us mods. And your username makes us very nervous as it's a word the rags use to taunt us with. So you came very close to being banned and we're still not sure about you as we reckon no real Blue would use that name.

If you want to change it (and I'd strongly advise it) then pm Ric.

I find the underscore disturbing...

Disturbing?

I find that disturbing. ;-)

And consider branching out instead of solely and obsessively posting in the Benatia thread trying to convince everyone that he doesn't want to join "Citeh".

Citeh is Roman for The Greatest Club on Earth

I thought it was Salfordese for "The ONLY football club in Manchester."

Amended for truth.

25m offer at most no more.We could get Lovren for around 15-20m. There isnt 10-15m price difference based on skills between them. Also Lovren younger a bit.

If Roma really wants a 35-40-45m offer then move on...

That was implicit in the statement but you've certainly made it more obvious—do you work for Mr. Cameron?

I've never really got that. Most blues I know say "Ci y" (without a T).

'Citeh' sounds more Yorkshire to me.

When you look at the origins of us being called Citeh (which as far as I am aware was Danny Kelly cockney twat taking the piss out of the Mancunian accent) then it is hilarious that united fans use it as a piss take name for us. They really are thick twats.

The thing is that other defenders should be thrilled over perhaps playing with vinne not only to learn but evolve together as him and Joleon did. Our team is perfect as it is and we just need to sell out the less good and bring in the necessary like sagna. Fernando and ONLY benatia. I think benatia is the one we perhaps need the most otherwise we get some1 like garay, godin or any of the hundreds of defenders out there whos price isnt over 40m. As we need to progress in CL we do need à defender as good as vinnie or at the same level and we have the depth. CTID
