    Probably what we paid for him 5m Euros. Would be nice to get £5m or more but I can't see it.

    In light of the agents' fees revelation and, at present, his bench warming I can see the club letting him go and him wanting out unless he gets regular first eleven selection.

    The difference in exchange rate means getting 5m euro's back now would represent a significant loss.

    We can certainly manage without him. Kind of depends if we have any serious aspirations of getting to the PL. If we have he should be retained. If we're settling in the Championship and regarding promotion as very much a bonus if we find a way he should be sold.

    Therefore he should be sold......

    If Ben Turner is proved fit at last and he signs a new contract then we should cash in on Manga.

    Promotion is looking like a lost cause so let's reduce the wage bill further.

    We also have Ajayi, or is he 'one for the future'.

    Dunno really I personally feel he,s a good asset, however it all depends on the ambitions of this management team and club owner. Perhaps his heart / commitment is not with this club, it cant be easy considering the thinking of our management?

    What is the great problem? City don't really need him. In fact is he that good? He has some qualiity and pace, but he did make some major slips last season. What is needed at this level is one big stopper (Morrison) and one with some quality and good reading of the game (Connelly).

    This is one area where City have some depth. Morrison & Connelly are a good partnership, plus there are Turner, Tamas and that one from Arsenal on loan somewhere.

    If there is an offer then he will surely go given Tan's mandate to Slade to cut the wages bill.
