I didn’t see the match - did he play dm or centre back?

He kind of played as a tucked in right back, basically man marked Mane. Aurier played ahead of him as a wingback. Then later on when subs were made went over and filled in at left back.

He was too agressive on their goal, but you can't blame him for it. He was brilliant considering he played against one of the best players in the world at the moment. Mane had a pretty quiet game and it was thanks to Japhet. Well played son.


Let him play from now on, even if he makes a mistake or two. It's obvious that he is a talented player. And I loved his interview after the game. He seems to be a down to earth lad with a great attitude.

What was Poch waiting for. I reckon we should through Skipp in now too.

Tanganga we all saw during pre season he was mightily impressive plus he is a Hackney boy lol.

I hope Mourinho uses him wisely and doesn't now park him off.

I know he was at fault for the goal, along with a couple of others, but that will be a hell of a lesson for him going forward.

Thought he dealt with Mane admirably. Aggressive and composed when needed to be, and quick also – a really good debut.
More game time from now on please – Sanchez too

Very good debut, but let's not overreact like we do with every young player with a good game.
Hope he gets more game time, but it's still early to tell. It's been only one game in which we parked the bus

Too late, I just got Japhet Manzambi Tanganga tattooed on my penis.

It's hard not to be excited when Vert has in comparison moves like he's one step away from his resting place in an Egyptian tomb
