Full Backs?

Maximillion Aarons a right back at Norwich 19 showing promise Tottenham are looking at him could be a very good player
Boubacar Kamara a left back at Marseille 19 showing promise Chelsea are looking at him
two players at the right age and experience to get into our b team and eventually push for a first team spot

Little doubt Mendy and Ghoulan have produced the best 2 displays against us in the last 2 years but these 2 were available and cheaper when we went for Mendy i believe we will go for a back up not a replacement for Mendy

Unless Mendy is the new kit guy I don't see him as a long term option.

I share that fear and only Pep knows, all these twitter feeds to me seem like a player trying to talk up his importance to the team, still we will find out in the summer which way Pep moves?

one of the best out there I was gob smacked when we went for Mendy over him, but now I think that was Pep looking at a back three, as with all links out of the transfer window it is just gossip but plausible

He's had his injury problems in the past - he was out from October to April the season before we bought Mendy. But he missed a total of six games in all competitions due to injury last season, and this season he's missed just one. I for one would be fully on board with signing him.
 
I think we should stick with out current full backs for next 5 years.

Danilo & Walker for RB
Mendy, Zinchenko & Delph for LB

I remember at the time some folks arguing we must have wanted bigger and more athletic fullbacks. Hence Mwndy/Walker.

I was dissapointed at the time, but not so much now. My new analysis of any player's ability includes his injury history. Case in point:Mendy!

Grimaldo is just as injury prone, if not more so. For me that's a No!

Really not that bad mate. It's certainly not bad enough to make me think we should stay away.
