it was followed by a comma, so I did pause for a second.Thanks Herc..... But did anyone else stop reading when he said the potential conclusion of NDombele
Given the role wing backs are given in this modern style, I think they require more time than most to adapt to match level intensity in their role. Even at Aurier’s age, Walker and Rose were still considered mediocre and all potential, and for that reason I think we should stay patient with KWP’s development.
Also Herc’s Toby update pairs nicely with the Joachim Andersen quotes, though we may miss that opportunity if it takes too long to move Toby out.
Right back?Does anyone know who “the RB” Herc is referring to is?
Or does he just mean the RB position in general?
Right back
Only if we sell Tripps or Serge!So it looks like our transfer targets for this window, based on the ITK for the last couple of weeks is as follows, have I missed anyone?
N'Dombele (likely), Celso (50/50), Clarke (likely), Sess (maybe?) RB (if we sell Trips, and KWP leaves) CB (if Toby goes)
Didn't think we would replace Toby, with Foyth and Sanchez around.
I’d be surprised if we didn’t.
If Toby leaves, that leaves us with Jan, Sanchez and Foyth, with potentially bit-part roles for Dier and CCV.
Not exactly an abundance of options, and with Jan not getting any younger, we’d be naïve to pass over the opportunity to sign a quality CB replacement for Toby if one came available IMO.

Good or bad?Thanks Herc..... But did anyone else stop reading when he said the potential conclusion of NDombele
Still find it incredible that we're apparently so keen to move Toby on. He should be the lynchpin of our defence for the next 3 years while we look for our long term Jan replacement.
