It's a shame Laporte bottled it. If we got both him and Stones we'd be set at CB for years.
Looking at our injury record and him needing a long term strategy for his current injury is stay well clear of City as well. I don't think he bottled it, I think he made a very wise existing on our injury staff for such a young lad.
 
I would probably play the two Ferns at centre back next week if Otamendi is injured. At least they have experience of playing together and I actually thought Fernando did alright tonight. It's hardly surprising we shipped three with Santa Claus in the middle of defence and a goalie who has a bigger problem with his left than the Labour party.
 
I see. You were serious? That's worse

For once mate I agree with Dave! We have signed future world class potential but as it stands failed besides gundogan to sign the now world class potential that we all thought we would be getting?
 
If this deal doesn't get done in the next few days then we've seriously fucked up.

We are DESPERATE for a first choice centre back that we can rely on, get Stones and then it doesn't really matter who we stick alongside him, whether it's Ota, Dinho, Vince etc, don't are, just get fucking Stones, quick stylee.

Should this conversation at least wait till the window closes?. Not a lot of time, but still time for business to be done

That will give ua a cb who is confident with the ball at his feet. A lot of issues that I saw tonight were not necessarily to do with ball control . Yes, we need him, but alone, he will not be a panacea IMO
 
The game against Arsenal didn't say we needed Stones. It said we need a central defence. If we buy a central defender it should be because they have a long term future in the team, not as short term cover for injured defenders. I assume that Kompany, Otamendi and Mangala are just short term absentees?

Yes it did and if you cant see it now then you will never see it.
