Right back options

I know he’s eventually going to be a midfielder, but given how well Nico O’Reilly did on his wrong side at left back, he’d probably be even better at RB
Pace, size, power. And definitely more aggressive in the tackle than Nunes
I know it’s another square peg bit could potentially buy us a year maybe

He's left footed that is his natural side.
 
Aina & Wesley ? The HG and youth option in two instead of 1 in Livramento.

Loan Wesley and keep Aina
 
I've no idea what the market looks like.

Could we not deputize Khus there for a season like we did with Gvardiol on the left?

I know off current evidence he won't offer much going forward but

A: less of an issue if you've got RAN doing the bombing down the left

B: between him and Nunes at least we'd have some guaranteed pace in recovery

C: Cherki/Foden ahead of him won't live or die by their fullback overlapping.
 
With how wide open we are to the counter just get me someone quick who can defend.
I’m not arsed if he can’t cross a ball or he’s shit going forward, just get me someone quick who can stick in a crunching tackle in like NDJ or Zabba.
We’ve got plenty of attacking talent already.
I remember when we used to be proud to keep a clean sheet.
Not anymore.
Our clean sheets look like a dirty protest.
 
That seems incredible value for Dumfries but he's virtually a right winger, often Inter's most advanced player.

Not sure our issue of being easily countered would be helped.

I'd rather a right back that defends first and foremost, but at that value you couldn't argue.

We don't necessarilly need a long term answer this summer given where the market is with RB's.

At this price we can give him a 3-4 year deal, and find a long-term answer and address the need instantly.

He has pace, intelligent, and is an upgrade on what we have.

Could we potentially convert Walker to a center back for the season to address the HG issue and use him when necessary?
 
So people think we need fullbacks who can defend yet they want us to be in for Dumfries who makes TAA's defensive abilities look solid to add to Ait-Nouri on the opposite flank who also cannot defend?

Attack is best form of defence he can't be that bad if got to two CL finals in 3 years. Getting a world class GK in should be priority
