He would be a good buy, could replace Obertan and also offer cover if Janmaat gets injured Sadly I think Squidward and Tiote have been given a reprieve from the transfer list because of their previous association with Schteve. Haidara suffered from a distinct lack of help from huge head playing in front of him and imho he'd probably make a better winger than LB but another CB and a winger has to be a higher priority than another LB.

CB, sure, but I think we're more stocked on the wing than we are at LB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LB - Haidara, Dummett, Colback or Anita. LW - Cabella, Aarons, at a push Perez but that would be criminal Squidward, Gouffran and Marveaux would be better in the Villandry Amateur Theatre company's next production of Le Magicien d'Oz than our squad.

So, 1 actual leftback and 3 players out of position then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See you logged in with your comedy account again. Two LBs and out of those that can play LW only one has a left foot they can kick with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the point is that we have 1 (one) Left back and options for the left wing, so the latter is further down the list, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it's not you dippy Skippy. We've some options on the left and less (be it 1 or 2) at Leftback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 37707 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I would guess Dummett's played more at LB than in any other position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 11410 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Your point was that getting a left winger was more of a priority than getting a left back. But way to steer the conversation away from me proving you wrong. Kudos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kudos See that's how comedy is performed ;-) Either way Davey boy, we're average in both departments and we will be stuck with what we have for another season. *sorry cannot type for shite this evening.

Anorthernsoul 1222 Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 (edited) The thing is Mcclaren rates Haidara so the chance of us buying another Left Back is slim to none. In fact I doubt we'll make anymore signings now. Edited August 12, 2015 by Anorthernsoul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't it widely accepted that Dummett was much better at CB, so much so that people (including me) see it as his natural position and his games at Left Back were a symptom of a small squad?
