Please no more Atletico defensive players. Obviously he is a very good player but for that amount of money it is risky to sign someone who only plays in a tight defensive unit where the responsibilities of a defender are completely different.

There is no way to be sure how he'd adapt to a completely different style where the most crucual part of the defending is done during a counter against speedy players.

I like Otamendi overall. I think he was a good signing.

I too think he has been a great servant.

Sign him and we make Rodri into a centre half like we did with vienne.

I was all for him until people started talking about his injury record. Not too sure now

to be fair pal they all become injury prone when they sign for us so what difference would it make!

I remember Vinnie being labelled injury-prone when he arrived at Etihad.

And so it (eventually) proved to be.

But when you have spunked as much as we have on CB’s this next signing has to be someone who is guaranteed to be a success.

No signing can be guaranteed to be a sucess, too many factors which can affect the outcome .

Obviously good scouting should result in the signing having all the right credentials to be capable of meeting the requirements , but there can be no guaratee that things will work out exactly as planned.

Couldn’t agree more

Great finsh. Wonderful improvisation.

Sign him and we make Rodri into a centre half like we did with vienne.

If we could do that, and Rodri become as great as Vincent was, then it would be a master stroke .
