"I was looking at the situation regarding both Alexandre Song and Johan Djourou at The Emirates. However, I notice both played for Arsenal last night, so I know I was wasting my time about these two on loan. I can understand Arsene Wenger not wanting to let Denilson go either". - Kinnear

 

Are these some of the players he didn't think would come, but knew would join?

I wish he'd just shut the fuck up.

Linked with Kyle Naughton in this mornings papers.

 

I presume he's cover for Beye.

 

We could do with some cover at full-back mind. I know we have centre halves who can play there but I'd rather have specialist players if you know what I mean.

A good, up-and-coming RB would be ideal really. Obviously he needs to be capable enough to step in when needed and with the potential to be the full-time successor when Habib leaves/packs-in, though. Not much to ask...

I know it's not fashionable positions but the fullback areas are where we're really short of cover, there and another body in midfield.

 

Supposed to be pretty good although I don't remember ever seeing him, can play right wing too.

It was a bit of a crime we didn't get both a LB and a RB in the summer, to be honest, let alone one or the other.

Too right. It was a fucking joke. :angry:

I'm still not used to having actual first-team fullbacks, never mind backups.

 

So somehow it doesn't feel as bad as it should.

We haven't had natural cover in both full-back positions since the 1996-7 season though when we had Elliott, Beresford, Watson & Barton. I don't think Bassong as cover at left-back, and Taylor cover at right-back is particularly bad.

I'm sure we had at least 2 for each position back in 01/02. Weren't Griffin, Hughes, Barton, Elliott and Bernard all at the club at one stage then?

I wouldn't mind getting Joe Mattock in for cover at left back either if Enrique goes (which I think he will) and a different first choice player comes in.

most consistent player in my FM team, 3 seasons in - never had a lower rating than 6.5

That's it then, get him signed.
