Yep, can't wait to see him play more games and grow as a player. Still convinced this lad has got a huge future once he is truly bedded in here and adapted to our league.

As much as I'd rather MYM be in the middle, I think our strongest back four is probably Debuchy, Taylor, Colo, MYM.

 

We have two very capable LBs though, not to use either would be a mistake I think. Having all of our 3 acceptable CBs on the pitch at once is also not a good idea.

Completely agree to be honest, but if we're fielding a strongest possible defence, at this time I think that's it and wouldn't be surprised to see Pardew use it. I do also think that MYM will be in the team more often than he's not, wherever it be across the back four (regardless of Taylor's fitnees).

 

I'm also leaning towards Haidara over Santon as well to be honest. I like Santon but can't help but feel he's a bit of a liability defensively and he's also becoming predictable going forward.

Big season ahead and i think he's going to be immense for us.

 

Agree.  I think all the January signings are going to look totally different for us this year.  They did not arrive into a good situation in Jan.

I do think Taylor and Colo are our best bet, but Taylor's not the long term answer and I've said that on here since 2005. I'd happily see him sold if we got someone else in.

 

You can't still be pro Taylor over MYM, howay man.
