Mangala

I hope your right lads he looked ok whenever i've watched him nothing special though, I'm sure our chief scouts know more than me!!

Not sure about Negredo one minute he looked set for Atletico Madrid but then Mandzukic signed...Hope he stays and recaptures his form of the first half of last season!

He really lived up to his nickname in that half a season. Unplayable.

Monaco seems like a nice option whoever you are. Expensive, but, and especially if the tax laws are still in place whereby they pay feck all, as we all know if you're a footballer ££ doesn't matter. And it seems like a good project they've got going. A well funded one anyway. Who's the new manager now?

Kind of City to allow us to sign Benatia.

"FFP my arsé!"

How do you work that out? We have a 50m spending cap this summer and are still inside it.

I feel a bit for Benatia to be honest, out of the two he was the one who really seemed to want to join the club.

Don't waste your time Grated explaining it to him. It's just a throwaway comment, made with no thought whatsoever, and thus isn't worth bothering about.

Well done Jose

Knowing that City target whoever we target he sent them down the garden path.

Manghala is nothing special at all. In fact he's looked quite clumsy when I've seen him play.

We can now target our real transfer target.

I have loads of time to waste though... These sausages are taking ages to cook

Sausages - mmm, good idea!

Wind up!

Back to Mangala though, I've not seen near enough of him to form an opinion, although I wasn't overly impressed when I watched him against Napoli in the Europa League this season.

Completely trust the club with transfers though, can't argue with any of the players brought in last summer, and they've taken a sensible approach this year too strengthening key areas.
