I like his goal celebration, hope to see it against the rags in front of the Stretford end.

Sooner we knock over the deal for a centre half ... the sooner we'll get an idea of what happens next. Fernando seems to be done. Sagna in a holding pattern. Benatia deal being struck I think will see us complete the obvious summer business.

More on Gazzetta's Benatia story: City and his agent have an 'iron clad' pact. Wages £3.25m/year net. Roma will accept no less than £28.5m.
Something happen soon..
So if we end up playing something like £25m for him and £12m for Fernando we have £12m for a sub keeper and anyone else before we hit our ceiling. Then it's about who will leave with Richards, Milner, Kolarov, Dzeko and Nasri all in the final year of their contracts and the Yaya situation.

He'd slot straight in on the left side, Prem proven, Belgium partnership, loves getting forward when opportunity arises, good at set pieces, can cover left back if required, what's not to like?
Before anyone says it, i'm not his agent, i just think he'd be a good fit
Vertonghen is good but he's a cart horse, I'm quicker than him after 10 pints of Stella

Atletico won la liga with Miranda and Godin, both right footed.
Real Madrid won the Champions League with a combination of Ramos, Pepe and Varane who are all right footed.
Having one right and one left footed CB is not "fundamental" at all.
MDM is right footed but has played a lot of his football as an LCB.
I am not familiar with Benatia so cannot comment on whether he can adapt quickly to playing on the left.

Haha.
Seriously though, I rated both Vertonghen and Cahill but I actually don't think either would suit the kind of defence we are playing.
Vertonghen is seriously slow, I reckon even Javi could have him over 50 yards....
