Reports emerging we are in the hunt for this 26yr old,Spanish,left sided centre half.

Plays for Sociedad and allegedly he has a 30m Euro release.

We discussed it last night and decided he was too small. Next.

There was talk about this the other day.

Maybe there is something in this.

FM 11/12 signing. Chelsea just got Rudiger so we need to get better.

Stuart Brennan said this on Talkshite about an hour ago

A left sided centre half! Might not be the worst idea

I'm not sure about his defending but he adds a lot in attack and sometimes can be found in the box. Not sure if this is what we need. I rather a reliable boring defender than a flair LCB. Not to say we can't have both types of players though.

We had so many problems dealing with big centre forwards in one on one situations last season, that the last thing I want to see is us being linked with yet another midget centre half. We need another Kompany, not another Otamendi, ie we need someone who can hold opponents up, win headers, dominate them physically as well as bring the ball out from the back comfortably. This isn't fucking Spain. Martinez is 5ft 11

Attacking fullbacks and now an attacking center half....Vinny will be knackered

This to me is VVD. He's not the finished article but he has been instrumental in bringing the ball out from the back. And he's 6ft 4 with a good leap and long arms to keep other players off his zone.
