Five CBs always seemed like too many for me, but JJ indicated that was the plan. I am hoping this is an indication that Wimmer is further along than they originally thought making Fazio expendable.
I would normally say 5 CB is more than is needed but....
It seems like every November (and then again around early March) we have a "defensive injury crisis" and we seem to find ourselves having debates along the lines of "Can we move Walker to CB and have Andros play RB?" or "What about Dembele/Bentaleb/Lennon at CB?". We seem to end up with 1 fewer CB than we actually need every season.
Not particularly fussed if Fazio goes. I guess if we are willing to let Fazio go then CCV has really been impressive, or maybe we keep Milos around (wasn't there ITK that Leeds wanted him on loan?) to pick up that lesser used depth through youth
