John P Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Chester is shorter than Mbemba. No thank you. So is Fabio Cannavaro... And Roberto Ayala... And I'm sure he's just as good in every other department as them isn't he? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 I hate this slow paced one transfer at a time crap. Need to sign another CB ASAP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley17 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 I don't think the point was entirely about his individual size, just that pairing two under 6 footers in the Premier League is asking to be sodomised Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxfree Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Advocating getting Chester to partner Mbemba. Must be illegal somehow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

relámpago blanco Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 If we are signing another centrw half its not a bad idea to sign one with some premier league experience. Not sure how it will work having 2 young foreign centebacks with no prem experience. That being said Id take 2 foreign centrebacks with no prem experience over the shower of shit we have now.

ExiledGeordie Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Need a left back and another CB on top of Mbemba. Defence just plainly isn't up to it with what's available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy84 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Need a left back and another CB on top of Mbemba. Defence just plainly isn't up to it with what's available. This is it. Another CB in addition to Mbemba is a must. No reason to suggest he won't do well and seems to have all the attributes for the PL but he needs a solid partner Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deckard 13 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 I don't think the point was entirely about his individual size, just that pairing two under 6 footers in the Premier League is asking to be sodomised Bingo. I don't think you have to be big to be a CB, but I think a back four with not a single player over 6 foot is asking for bother against a lot of teams. Regardless of the lads height he is 27 this season and his experience in the Premier League is getting relegated with Hull. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
henke Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Remember playing Danny Simspon at CB a few years back and getting absolutely bummed off Norwich, with that big gimp up front? With a back four of 5 footers even Arsenal would go route one against us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Spaceman Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Speaking of relegated Hull cast offs has no one been in for Huddlestone yet? If McLaren is wanting someone to sit and run the game I'd much rather have him than Carrick. Class Huddlestone has been atrocious for 2 season now.

nufc4eva Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 We have to make this a priority now, Williamson and Taylor just have to go. They are useless. We need at least one more cb with Mbemba otherwise we will just leak goals again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segun Oluwaniyi Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Shawcross is unattainable I am sure, but he is the exact model of the player this club needs to sign. As things stand (with the Congolais boy still being sorted out and Tiote seemingly diminished), there is not one physically imposing player in the back 7 (Krul is not a physically dominant keeper). Even further up the pitch, there is only really Sissoko, unless Mitrovic adjusts and starts immediately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
