I think 2 from each position is plenty but to be fair if we stay in all the comps and have 3 games and week then you're right that we are one injury away from saying 4 isn't enough so yea good point.

Issue is more the size of the squad we can register so who drops out?

I'm no expert but i thought 25 players is max that can be registered and we have a lot of good players now:

1. Lloris
2. Hart
3. Gazzaniga

4.Doherty
5.Aurier

6.Sanchez
7.Dier
8.Toby
9.Tanganga
10.Roden* assuming he signs

11.Regullion
12.Davies

13.PEH
14.Sissoko

15.Ndombele
16. Winks
17.G.Fernandes

18.Lo Celso
19.Dele

20.Son
21.Bergwijn

22.Bale
23.Lucas
24.Lamela

25.Kane
26.Vinicus

So does G.Fernandes or Gazzaniga miss out?

Either way squad is looking incredible now, this is the kind of squad depth which can compete on multiple fronts.

Roden signing would be very astute indeed to complete the puzzle especially if Tanganga has some injury concerns.

Agree though Skiniar would the final "missing" puzzle i reckon.

Great to get a promising cb like Joe to booster our ranks though

Levy thought I've bent this transfer window over and creamed all over it but it's not fun without a very last minute signing oh the rush its what i live for as he pushes that fax button one last time and takes a big deep sigh and strokes his bond villain cat and smiles at his genius.

Gedson and Tanganga were both born after 01/01/1999 so do not need to be registered for the PL this season.

Mabye next summer we could look to sell Toby and buy Skrinjar perhaps, but if Roden and Tanganga step up big time we might not need him. That 5 we would now have have a bit of everything and this Roden does look a real talent.

Oh is that how it works, good to know.
Ok then we have the squad to win it all, keep Lo Celso, Bale, Son and Kane fit for most the season and sky is the limit.
Roden has made this an 11/10 window.

BREAKING NEWS

Bournemouth are in advanced talks with Tottenham to sign defender Cameron Carter-Vickers on loan for the season.

It’s a deal that is going right to the wire but the first part of the paperwork is complete.

Basing on my exceptional Football Manager expirience, Tanganga may be considered as u-21 so he wouln't take that spot, at last for Premier League

Never seen him play but it is another body at the back where I felt we needed something - im up for a good old fashioned defender and hope he is.

Could leave us light in the EL groups with potentially only 3 fit and available CBs, unless Jose believes Davies can fill in.

The fact that CCV is going is pretty much confirmation that Roden is done. Don't think they would have let him go especially with Tanganga injury concerns.

5 CBs isn’t too many - we’ve got 3 games a week from now as standard and in some games we may go with a back 3. One injury and suddenly 4 CBs wouldn’t seem enough.

It’s too many. If we’re serious about giving Tanganga opportunities then signing a 22 year old is going to limit those chances. We’re not going to have 3 matches a week for the whole season.

The ‘one injury away from...’ argument is ridiculous as well.

Just looking at a Swansea forum to read their views on the deal and an admin said this about his medical:
Thing is he had a medical on Wednesday whilst with Wales, not for spurs, but pending a transfer. So I assume he is on his way,

Take it or leave it (y)

When Dier & Tanganga are fit, it’ll be 5 and 6 with Davies. Dier’s injury doesnt seem to be a long term thing and he’s only a doubt for this Sunday. Tanganga’s is clearly a bit different. But Sunday is the only day we have an issue with 2 fit recognized CB’s and Davies who could play there. Hopefully Dier is back for Thursday as Rodon is out for Europe until January at the earliest.
