We were linked with Moreno before he went to Liverpool and he certainly has the physical side of the Premier League sorted. I hate to see Clichy pull out of 50/50 challenges and want someone who is an improvement on Clichy. Rodriguez sounds like the finished article and would probably be a better buy but it all depends how much it would take to bring him over here. I like the two full backs at Chelsea, both are big strong physical players who can get up and down the pitch and Ivanovic scores goals too. If we can sign a left sided Ivanovic who is in his early twenty's then this would be ideal.
I haven't seen enough of Kurzawa and I hope our scouts have made sure he has all the attributes needed to succeed in the English game.
I never see Clichy pull out of 50/50 challenges.
I'd go as far as to say he's as committed to a tackle as Zabba.
Clichy is a front foot, all or nothing defender, and has been brilliant these last few months.
I do like Clichy this season but I must admit he keeps on retreating in the box far too often while defending.
Clichy backs out of challenges when I've watched him, in fact he did just that against Arsenal a few weeks ago.
