Touched a nerve yesterday clearly! (The one I have mentioned in detail once in ten years you mean?)

Watching the Dortmund vs Bayern game tonight, Borussia Dortmund's young right back Felix Passlack had a terrific game. He's lighning quick, had Ribery in his pocket all night & threatened going forward.

The more I think about it, someone like Angelino would be right at home if we used the inverted fullback system.
Considering the EDS often play like that, he should be!

Alright blues. I'm a new user, been creeping this forum for years and never got round to making an account for the fear of being called a plastic fan or a rag.
Any news on full backs? The lack of any rumours besides Grimaldo is a bit concerning considering all 4 of ours are past 30 and don't seem to fit Pep's system. Kolarov has had his moments at centre half and might be a good rotational squad player but besides that Clichy, Sagna and Zaba (although part of me wants him to stay despite his legs going) are out of contact in the summer. Bellerin signed a new contract so he's out of the question and that leaves us with Fabinho as the only realistic right back we've been linked to.
Another thing that concerns me is we could've done with replacing at least one of each of our full backs over the past few years and anyone we've been linked to hasn't came for one reason or another. Kurzawa went for under £20m and seems to be doing well at PSG, Alex Sandro went for a similar price and is tearing up the left flank for Juve, even Vrsaljko (Croatian right back we were interested in signing in the summer) went for pennies and could've improved us. Maffeo looked promising last month against the rags but he's still young and until he's earned Pep's trust we could really do with a consistent, energetic right back with time on his side.
Potential RB signings - Fabinho, Cancelo, Florenzi?
Potential LB signings - Grimaldo, Alex Sandro?
