I’d be worried about the whole defender part if tanganga hadn’t came in the scene and proved to be quality at both right back and cb maybe Jose is right more pressing matters defence can be sorted in the summer
until we have a DM who can run and tackle the choices in defence are akin to the layout of the deckchairs on the titanic!I don’t mind not signing any defenders until the summer, as long as we get a CDM. Any decent CDM will help the existing defence massively.
If no new defenders this window is the price for signing a quality DM then that seems a sensible trade-off
Do you mean now or in the summer? Because we aren't really getting linked with any DMs
Yes quite. But we are looking at a West Brom player who plays against championship players every week. What's the difference?Not to discredit Tanganga at all, as he's been really good, but surely we aren't really abandoning plans to buy a right back because he did a decent job there against a poor Championship side.
It must be that our RB target/s aren't available until the summer, and we've taken the decision to wait rather than bring in plan B/C/D.
DM does now seem to be the biggest priority along with a CF.
Told this morning not looking at defenders this window. Jose thinks he can improve them through training, and the money would be better spent elsewhere
It's probably more that he did a decent job at RB against Mane and an excellent Liverpool team
He played as the RCB against Liverpool, with Aurier in front/alongside him.Yes quite. But we are looking at a West Brom player who plays against championship players every week. What's the difference?
dragon1 on rb: ship sailed on arrons, wba not selling right now, we are in talks with another rb
on only getting loans: not true
All perfectly plausibly. I’m at a point where I’d happily see the season out with Tanganga and Aurier at RV, I’d go as far to say I’d only want to sign an established RB and sell Aurier than any young options as big picture is developing someone like Tanganga, and he’s more likely to learn the game playing regularly at RB than by not playing as 4th or 5th choice CB, even if that ultimately is his position.Told this morning not looking at defenders this window.

Don’t we all love Tanganga? Good news on defenders too. Thanks doc, tricks and all ITKs.dragon1 on not talking to defenders (trix' info):

I assume Dragon meant to add a full stop between 'absolute nonsense' and 'we are in talks with defenders'?dragon1 on not talking to defenders (trix' info):

It doesn’t necessarily go against Trix’s info. We may be talking to defenders, but may also not be pushing hard to being them in THIS window.dragon1 on not talking to defenders (trix' info):
