Agree with @Bus-Conductor that Vertonghen is our best CB by a long way.
Assuming Fazio joins, that gives us Vertonghen, Fazio, Dawson, Kaboul, Chirches and Dier (6 cb's) with Dawson heavily linked to Hull so probably 5 cb's
Now Fazio has not played more than about 35 competitive matches in any of the last 3 years as far as I understand it due to a combination of injuries and suspensiions (lots of yellow cards fom being a full on in your face cb), so if Kaboul stays (with his dodgy injury record) and Chirches seems to want out then we might well think it sensible to bring in Schar to replace Chirches and run with 5 cb's (Dier also coverung rb) if Kaboul will not leave.
