It's quiet 10, no apologies! (continued)

Is it just me that's not panicking about CB situation?

I agree we could do with cover but i wouldn't panic, Micah and Yaya are more than competent to fill in if needed

I'm the same and we still have Kolo and several younger players that can fill in during small emergencies. Longer term injury is a different matter, but that's not precisely something you can plan for as most high-class players don't like sitting on the bench just in case.

So no RVP untill one gets shipped out?

I agree, I don't think it is the priority that people are making it out to be. I wouldn't be surprised to see Rekik involved if necessary. He plays like he is 10 years older than his age and seems far more competent than Savic/Boyata. Richards was brilliant when he filled in as well.

we probably do need to sort before the window ends

fighting on 4 fronts pretty much demands it and the last thing we need is taking yaya out of midfield in a big cl game etc

I'm assuming the tick tick boom is related other players and not the Tevez/RVP merry go round

If we keep Kolo, I'm not panicking.

If Yaya is the possible solution, we are talking about using a bloke who has never played a game at centre back in our league & has been responsible for goals against, losing his man on set pieces, on quite a few occasions.

I don't trust Savic or Dedryk at all.

Kolo & Micah are decent short term solutions, if we get injuries.

 

[BoyBlue_1985]

So does Mancini have any money to spend or does he have to sell to buy?

Well he just got a new contract and i saw him in DFS the other day. Had a chat and he said he was just throwing is old sofa away so doesn't look like he has to sell to buy at the moment

 

[paulieb]

I think rekik is gonna feature in the squad a lot more this season

Disagree

Yaya is our key man time and time again last season he was pushed forward when things were not happening - Newcastle being a prime example

Putting Yaya as a centre back is ridiculas we lose far more than we gain

Sucess and failure is marginal - The error that Savic made against Spuds was almost terminal - only a shit pass from Bale? allolwed us to get away with it

Factor in the ACON we could lose Kolo and Yaya then sorry but we are short

Obviously it depends upon which games but i really really dont want to into a game of the significance of Spuds with a half cocked make do defence - Savic needs some oppportunities and normally he would get a chance but with Kolo whom could go to the ACON then one of them has to go and be replaced unless Kolo aint picked - unlikely i suspect
