Eric Bailly

Am a keen follower of the African Cup Of Nations(AFCON) and I don't know how Eric Bailly escaped my radar. From the his description Man United may have got themselves a good defender. Will be he in the mould of Rio Ferdinand or Nemanja Vidic or will he deceive to flatter like Eliakim Mangala at Man City? Those are the questions Jose Mourinho will be answering as he begins his managerial career at Man United.

So far I haven't commented about Mourinho at Man United because am not his fan. True he is a winner but contoversy always follow him. Will he galvanise Manchester United or will he be out to settle personal scores with Pep Guardiola? Only time will tell...
He has hit the ground running by signing Bailly, a defender which is good news for most Manchester United fans. Smalling started strongly last season but as the season entered the crucial period his weakness was exposed. Daley Blind height was his undoing in defence but he has an eye for a pass which may be good if he is played in the midfield.
So far everything seems to be going fine. What about the whispers going round that Ibrahimovic is about to sign?

Here is the bbc report on Bailly signing..Manchester United have completed the signing of Villarreal defender Eric Bailly, subject to a work permit.
