Ousmane Diomande makes a lot of sense with Viana coming in. Assuming one of Stones or Gvardiol will be going forward, either out wide or into midfield, Diomande would be perfect as a RCB in a back 3. Livramento would be my preferred choice for a more traditional RB now that Tiago Santos tore his ACL

No we need to actually sign four full backs.
Frimpong and Davies as first choice.
Kerkez and Livramento as back up.
This is before we lookat the rest of majorly ageing squad.
Rico is a superb midfield player, but not a full back.

If pep only signs a one year extension then we will plan for him going as we cannot build a team around a manager who isn’t staying . As someone posted pep needs to sign for at least 2 seasons or there is no point in signing for a season .pep will need to go for this, he's all into this system .

There's one or two outlets and Spurs sources linking us with Pedro Porro again today.

Spurs won't be easy to negotiate with, if the r rumour is correct, or cheap based upon previous history.

Not sure that matters as long as we have one defender that nullifies the transition.pity hes not right sided, im sure theres a few pacey right foot defenders about.

Well that's exactly right. It doesn't need to be the right-back.Not sure that matters as long as we have one defender that nullifies the transition.

i think LCB is jokso's spot going forward, dont see anyone coming in for it, think it'll be right side we buy for personally. Pep seems sold on pushing in one into CM, maybe if that becomes Josko down the line a LCB might be the way to go.Not sure that matters as long as we have one defender that nullifies the transition.

It may well be once Pep goes, but Josko is our second biggest goal threat at present.

Quite a few good free agents available next summer. Think we`re gonna need 2 RBs, but there are definitely a couple freebies good enough to be a backup. Walker should be off, and Rico should be moulded into a midfielder
KWP (27) - potentially the best one of them to me. Always plays well when I see him
Calabria (27) - solid defensively (which is why he occasionally has played CB too)
Rensch (only 21, and seems to have improved quite a bit for Ajax this season)
Dumfries (28) - not a fan personally, but decent option on a free
Then there`s also TAA, quite bad defensively (although he has improved), but could be worth it just for the piss boiling

I don't believe such a player exists.We need to go out and sign a 2017 Kyle Walker/current Gvardiol but for the right hand side.
Diomande for right sided "Gvardiol" for me. Josko is better but Diomande is the closest for me that can fit that bill. Big, quick, powerful, good on ball ability.We need to go out and sign a 2017 Kyle Walker/current Gvardiol but for the right hand side.
