I'd be quite pleased if City got Mangala. They were always going to spend big and Benatia is the far superior player.
I thought Guarin was being lined up as a possible replacement.
Paulinho seems a strange one.

Not after tonights game they won't.
Guarin's terrible. Not that Paulinho's much better.
Knowing Juve were looking at Guarin, it wouldn't surprise me if they are interested in Paulinho. Similar uninspring footballer.
Nope, we actually have to name less home-grown players in our Champions League squad this season (5 compared to the standard 8 IIRC)
Neither are great, but it seems no one really knows what is happening. Too many conflicting reports coming out every hour, journalists just want clicks.
By all accounts he had an excellent season for Malaga in the 12/13 season, he has just played regularly in the team that won the Premier League and is now set to start in a World Cup final. But yeah, you're right, he must be shit.
He's damn underrated in England.
Really struggle to see the hype with Paulinho. Prior to his Spurs move he was being branded as the new big thing in midfield. Not sure I've ever seen him play well though - I'd go as far as to say that Kleberson was a significantly better player.
Demichelis was shite for a few months but in the last 2-3 months of the season he was City's best CB.
Imagine getting 35m for Vidal and wasting 20m of it on Paulinho. I'm definitely not going to be the one to tell Juve though...
Ahhh right, looked it up, smaller 21 man squad, but smaller HG to match.
Yep he took a lot of the blame when really it was Kompany who was really poor(Barc game at home)
Van Gaal is officially done now. Preparation for next season starts now.
There's been no hype on here or in the media from what I've seen.
Scolari seemed to prefer him to Fernandinho.
How are the two linked?
Paulinho is awful.
Demechellis isnt bad at all.

No you don't, you can register 21 players instead of 25 and the number of homegrown players is still 8.
Whats the smilie for Adnan?, i very much doubt we would be able to get both Vidal and Di Maria although we could really of done with both of them.
If we do lose out on Di Maria, i hope we are looking at some other creative wide player (like Lucas Moura who isn't exactly 'flavor of the month' at PSG apparently) because we are lacking on that front imo.
I don't understand how us signing Vidal would mean we're not signing Di Maria. How is there a link between the two? Kind of implies that we are limited financially doesn't it? Having said that if we get Vidal and a half decent CB it'd be a better summer than I would have expected.
No, definitely only need to register 5 home-grown players.

Well the Mirror article linked on the side panel of the Caf says we have resigned ourselves to Hummels staying in Dortmund and that Vidal and Di Maria are too expensive.
Won't reach Vidal fee for all of those combined.
Cheers i missed that one, it's a fair decision.
Suprised Howard Nurse is coming out with a line like ''Not sure. All I can say though, is that the next few days will be interesting ''
Hate that cock teaser
'' Hate that cock teaser
I'd cream. He won't leave Bayern but that actually would make me jizz. For me, one of the top 5 players in the world.
Why?

If we came out with the cringeworthy 'no value in the transfer market' shite again, i could imagine riots on here!.
Possibly means we're limited to one big money purchase, possibly that the demands for di Maria were getting too high and we pulled out, possibly that di Maria prefers to go to PSG and we're leaking that to save face, probably just a heap of guesswork bullshit.
Encouraging though that the person who broke the Mata to United story for the Telegraph in January is reporting the Vidal link. Fingers crossed it gathers pace now van Gaal is about to join up fully.
So good you're spending £32mil to replace him.
He's 33 years old.
