Today another prime example of why FBs are in desperate need of upgrading. Much like against Wolves we got dominated down the flanks. Chilwell and Perriera too athletic and quick for Rose and Trippier.

Rose is great, he just struggles with his fitness so we need someone of equal talent because he is likely to miss lots of games. RB 100% agree. If we really wanted to make a statement and reclaim the best fullbacks in the league we'd go get Chilwell & Wan Bissaka.

Completely agree, Rose when fit is great and easily competes with Chillwell and Perriera tbh on form and fit he surpasses these guys but how often will he be fit, Trippier on the other hand. I loathe to see him in the starting 11. Today showed how having two dominate full backs can change the whole team dynamic, this is the area Leicester showed their strength today.

I think Chilwell is very over rated just because he is HG. AWB is very good but do we know he is any better than KWP ? What we do know is that we need to sell Trippier and Aurier.

We won’t sell trippier and aurier, it will be sell one and buy one imo.
My money is on aurier leaving as he is probably on s bigger wage and is not home grown

I think Chilwell is pretty good, thought he was dangerous today against us. Wan Bissaka is better defensively than KWP from what I've seen thus far.

I roll my eyes big time at the overrating of HG prospects on here so no need to worry about any sort of bias from me!

AWB is definitely better than KWP. I’d say he’s likely to go to City though

I like Chilwell too, but again, I’m not sure we could afford him - that is to say, our limited money needs to be prioritised elsewhere. Rose and Davies are fine, it’s RB that needs sorting. It’s becoming the weakest part of the first XI

AWB I think would be gettable for us (although pricey) but I can't see Leicester selling to us. At LB I think we should look to bring in someone like Guerreiro, F. Mendy, or Tierney.

I agree, but a man can dream.

Chillwell is pretty much earmarked for Man City. Plus they'll overpay for him so that always helps.

I can't see both Aurier and Trippier being sold this summer so I would like to let one of them go and bring in Aarons with one eye on the future. On the left I would have Rose, Davies and try to bring in Sessegnon. Would give us good versatility and we could use Davies as a Jan understudy and Sessegnon as a wing option. The way we play I think it's important to have 3 players who can at full back on each side to allow for injuries as we are at our best when we can rotate and keep our full backs fresh.

Rose has been in very good form this season, One of our most consistent performers.

Im personally not sure kwp is ready to be 2nd choice RB next season, think a premier league loan would be more beneficial.

Trippier or aurier should be upgraded, that one is up to poch. If we go for Aarons or wan bissake I suppose we could afford to lose trippier's HG status.

Rose has had some poor performances and some good ones. He looks like he’ll go off injured at any moment. He’s been a brilliant player, but if anyone offered us decent money in the summer I’d bite their hands off. His career is only going one way - more injuries and less physical capabilities.

Cheeky bid for Tielemans when Monaco get relegated wouldn’t be a bad shout, going off today’s performance.

Already rated him, but he basically created everything Leicester did, and I doubt Wembley is the easiest stage on which to make your PL debut. Took it in his stride and looked shit hot.

I disagree completely! Would be ridiculous selling him IMO.

We have much more pressing issues in the squad that need addressing, selling rose would just add to it unnecessarily.

Honestly, he looks like someone who’s struggling to get through each game in the way Dembele was at the end of last season. His injuries aren’t going to get better. The prudent thing to do would be sell if we can find a buyer - say Leeds if they came up, be nice for him to go home. If not, I’m fine to keep him too.

Sell one of the top 3 left backs in the league, at 28 years old-his prime, to a newly promoted club? Not to mention he's homegrown and our longest serving player.

He's had one injury this season, a groin strain


Batshit crazy
