Agreed. A break from the team mightn't be bad thing for Vinnie at the moment, who looks a pale imitation of the 11/12 player. Taking Hart out of the team in 13/14 did him no harm. Denayer and Mangala to start at the Hawthorns

Looks like such a complete player considering his age. No surprise he's already broken into the international team.
 
Kompany and Mangala are too similar for me. Both play better with Demi but Denayer is the future. Calm, composed on the ball and crucially doesn't dive in at every opportunity.
 
I think he should be in the starting 11 v the baggies.
It would be a huge call for Pellegrini to drop VK so expect Mangala to be the one to miss out.
 
I thought he looked pretty poor against Madrid and had a bad first half hour against Vietnam, but he looked a lot more settled today. Him and Mangala looked to have a much better understanding, switching sides and filling in for each other pretty seemlessly. As long as the ball is on the floor I think he's excellent, his marking and positioning from crosses looks like it still needs a lot of improvement (not needed today)
 
Alongside Sterling, Denayer was our best player today, maybe Denayer was THE best. So calm and collective in defence, hardly ever makes a mistake, very impressive for a 20-year old. If Pellegrini doesn't play Denayer against West Brom, he's absolutely deluded, Denayer is by far our best defender at the moment.
 
Will he look assured next to VK? That's the big problem.

It'll be telling if our defence is a shambles against WBA and Vinny's in the starting lineup because last season we looked more assure without him and today Mangala and Denayer looked a lot better.

If he looks assured next to Mangala then he'll look assured next to Kompany.
