It's Quiet - a new dawn

no he bloody ain't. Not even close.

He is, You might not think so, but the general consensus is that he is. Our manager thinks he's the best CB in the world and so do his fellow professionals who put him in the world team of the year, and the journalists in germany who made him POTY there last season.

He's also nailed down a starting spot in one of the 3 best teams in the world for 5 years, and won everything trophy possible for club and country.

So when you do that, and coaches, journalists and fellow players think you're one of the best in the world...you are.

How much to bribe him mate? ;-)

Have tried but not having it. Would only say not a bench warmer and is a lovely player

Who isn't a defender? Crazy.

Transfer window isn't open yet, but if it's a bench warmer then it's unlikely to be someone out of contract...

I'd say Boateng lived up to the hype. He is World Class.

no he bloody ain't. Not even close.

As hes been the main defensive lynch pin of sides that have won the Champions league , World cup, Club World cup and numerous Bundesliga titles , I'd say you have a pretty tight definition of world class if you don't think he has been.

i agree that team looks very defensively weak in midfield.

How does it look weak in midfield?

Doh! Hopefully Fabinho

It can surely only be Fabinho then if your mate is correct.

Or Ederson the goalkeeper.

nope, it's just popular opinion. It's not backed up by his own performances, as Bayern's CL woes in recent years highlight.

NOT a bench warmer

That's what I'm saying. The transfer window isn't open yet, so it's probably not a transfer of a player in contract with another club. Thus it's more likely to be someone out of contract, but there aren't many (any?) of those players who are better than bench warmer levels available.

If it is a contracted player, then it's either Fabinho or Ederson of the players we are linked to, most likely.
