Only two pages today??? As roller coasters go it's more Alton Towers than Disneyworld.

Do your actually rate Fazio as a decent centre back? He's an accident waiting to happen in my opinion. He's cumbersome, not very good in the air (despite his size) and his passing is wayward. I hope we make an early decision to sell.

Yes.

So was metetsacker first season. Give players a chance to adjust.

Heisenberg uncertainty principle. By making your statement you interfered with the outcome. There are now three pages.

Lloris has said in the past that he does not want to move back to France. PSG will probably want an attacking player or someone like Pogba anyway, and they have FFP restrictions.

Pretty sure there was something on the news a few days ago that FFP is going to be "relaxed" soon: issue is that it actually favours the top clubs as they have the revenue so stops others from breaking into the top levels of each league.

Premier League is a league where speed is king. Fazio has been shown up time and again. It'll get worse.

On another matter, Jasper says that Lloris will not be sold to United. Does that mean that he could be sold to another team?

With the acquisition of Vorm last season was it always the plan to sell Lloris this summer?

Yet Mertesacker got better?

Don't rate Mertesacker either.

And he's still toilet




Dare you to defend him

The Toby Alderwield (sp.) ITK does seem that someone would be on the way out. I think Wimmer is ready and not a prospect buy being that he played most if not all games in his bundesliga season. His versatility is a plus, but especially if Trippier is a purchase, we will be in overload at the back. Dier and Fazio currently occupy the RCB options, Vertongen and wimmer LCB... Seems too much... As Wimmer, and Dier would be expecting game time... Odd. Would prefer Fazio to stay think he is criminally underrated on here.

John Terry has no pace and was the best centre half in the league last season.... again.

Sad to say but he is different class (hate him as I do)

I think he's just criminal

Doesn't exactly make his statement any less wrong.

No way he was going to be left in the team hotel was there?

Speaking of John Terry......

 

[Gaz_Gammon]

I think the internet was broken when @Bus-Conductor declared that Pritchard (no disrespect to him, seems a promising talent) would be a bigger loss to us than Lloris....

Winks as well........
















No seriously.

 

[Gaz_Gammon]

Cant see us buying another cb when we currently have 6 on the books

Not once you take into consideration the talents that are Kaboul and Fazio we don't.

Yeah, but Chelsea play with a very deep back line. We play on quite the opposite extreme, and I do think Fats struggles with the system.

Personally don't care one way or the other. If he stays, I take it to mean Poch is confident moving forward with Dier and Fats at RCB and I'm cool with it. If we choose to sell him to make way for a more athletic CB in the high line system, I'd certainly support that decision as well.

I don't think World Cup Winner Per Mertesacker needs anyone to defend him, he's quite capable of doing that himself on the biggest stage...
