Raheem Sterling | Joins Chelsea for £50m

[The Goods]

Why would we want a third right back?

More options for Cancelo this season, need cover for walker’s injuries

Why would we want a third right back?

Because he’s better that at least 1 of the current 2…..

We'll have to agree to disagree and, even if he was, that's still not a good enough reason.

Improving our squad isn’t a good enough reason for buying someone?!????….. I’ll beg to differ mate!

Losing an attacker to sign a player who you think is better than the two excellent right backs we've already got would be stupid recruitment.

Unless you're severely undervaluing one of our players in that position, then its about as low down on our list of priorities as can possibly be.

Straight swap for Reece James, or is that too simple ?

I would snatch their hand off for that swap. James is one of the few players I think would improve the squad immensely.

We’re talking right backs mate and you’re talking about losing an attacker for him. I dont follow. And I never said getting James was any type of priority for us. Just responding to the question of why we would want a 3rd right back.

Ahh. I get it. You’re talking about a Sterling swap. We’ll he’s gone in a year anyway so if the swap was on (which i doubt it is because Chelsea aren’t stupid) I’d take the swap. I was talking about getting him because he improves our squad and nothing more.

I just don't see why that would suit anyone. He probably wouldn't want to come because there's not much chance of him getting the minutes he'd get at Chelsea, it would piss Cancelo and Walker off because it's even more competition on top of each other, Chelsea wouldn't want to do it because they could get Sterling on a free in a year's time anyway and we'd also be losing a winger right now and therefore would have to look at replacing him immediately rather than in twelve months.

He's a really good player but not at all needed right now.

Walker/James right back.........Cancelo/Zinchenko left back
