He's a good player, with a lot of potential, but I guess a lot depends on what happens with Toby in the summer - really hope he stays.
Be nice to get a player or two in early this summer instead of Levy playing chicken with deadline day.

Don't need him, we have Jan.
You are right we've got Vertonghen, but you are not right that we don't need more CBs. We are actually dangerously close to being light in senior players with CB as predominant position. This is an example of a very smart move and completely aligned with the type of signings I'd expect us to be pursuing moving forward.

Really? Foyth Toby Davison Jan Eric and Ben (for emergencies). CCV on loan.
If someone leaves yeah but I'm not sure when a new signing would play otherwise.

I expressly said senior players with CB as predominant position of whom we've only got four. You are listing junior players or players without CB as their predominant position.

Yeah sorry but I still count 5 in that as Foyth is now a senior player in my eyes (if he's starting CL KO games) and Eric is prominant in two positions.

You may think that Dier should or could be playing CB and I might be inclined to agree. However, in this context, it doesn't matter where we think that a player should play. Fact is Dier isn't playing a lot at CB, and objectively speaking we have to take that into account. We also seem to want to be able to field 3 CBs at a time, something I'm more than happy with. Adding to that the questionable status of Alderweireld. We are clearly close to being light when it comes to senior CBs.

22million seems like a really good price for him. Seems to be a strong prospect.

In a year's time we could easily be without Jan and Toby. There's every need.

Ah yes you are right. My initial comment about everything fine once we have superJan was more of a jokey compliment to the man. If we're gonna play 3 CBs then we look short.
