I don't look at it as a pair of fullbacks, more a foursome, the way we play now the fullbacks do more work than any other players, so change more or less every game, i don't worry about who plays fullback these days cos they're all great, not allways been like that!lol
This is the bit that concerns me. With this system the full-backs work like dogs for the full 90mins and we're likely to see a full season being involved in every competition for most of it (I hope). Throw in the odd suspension or injury and we may find ourselves short at full-back and then lose our width in attack.
Maybe we need three top players for each full-back position.
Short at fullback? Richards, Clichy, Zaba, Kolarov, Onuoha, Lescott, Barry, Milner, Savic....I am pretty sure we can find a pair of those on any given weekend or tues/wed night this season mate.
