Yes, particularly when neither Romero nor Dier is particularly good in the air.
On a side note, Argentina's maybe best CB ever, Daniel Passarella, was only 173 cm. He was actually fairly good in the air and a tough and "feared" tackler.

Do I think there will occasionally be someone who gets info they shouldn't from someone within the club running their mouth? Yes
Are most "itk"s full of shit? Yes
Both can be true. Your position seems to be he is a chancer what has he ever got before the press. Then when given examples you say but it was too long ago. The bloke doesn't even post anymore. I'm not really sure what your point is but anyway even I'm finding this boring
You get embarrassed by ITK? Seriously?
Lisandro Martinez is only 1.75m. That’s very very short for a center back. And passarella was the exception that assures the rule
Yeah people aren't supposed to take it seriously, always makes me laugh when people get angry at ITK
Levy has had no choice. Reached an impasse whether he is serious or happy to be also rans. Two league cups (the lowest trophy to go for btw) in 23 years). I do agree that hes balanced the books and sanitised the club. Great but the objective is to win titles.
City making an attempt to obey FFP.
Right so my point is people need to keep the same energy for him on all the deals we are doing, you can't blame Levy for 'haggling' on the Spence deal (if he's even the one doing that) and praise him for signing Richarlison at the same time.
Maybe just maybe it's Middlesbrough taking the piss here...
I'm not stupid. You just repeated that you get embarrassed by ITK. I think that is pretty stupid TBH.
How long have we been tantalised with this ownership? Conte to his credit is handling every facet of club impeccably. Short-term contract. Basically back me and I will deliver. If not I'm off. Great management in every aspect by conte.
Is it just me that's not even slightly worried by Chelsea's links.
not linked to a no. 9 so playing Havertz there.
Sterling doesn't improve them, Rudiger and Christenson gone.
Couldn't get Rapinha, chasing De Ligt who apparently prefers Bayern.
Nathan Ake is pretty average.
I dunno..... I think they'll struggle this season.

I have never gotten the Radiohead love. My current most favourite-est band is BMTH. I can just listen to them on shuffle and not get tired of it.
OK, we're both a little...biased..but I agree that the Chelsea defence will be worse not better next season. Azpi likely out as well.
If I was being charitable, I'd say some of these guys have had 1 good bit of info, possibly by pure chance and then used it for their own shits and giggles.
The logical way of looking at it is;
If these people are privy to inside information then why are they sharing it on silly Internet forums? It would be career suicide if they're affiliated with the club and could cause their club contact serious trouble if they have one. My job involves things nowhere near as sensitive as huge money deals, yet written in my contract is a clause saying I cannot discuss work related matters outside of work. And I've seen people pulled up on it even when it's harmless.
If they're in the media, why are they hiding their real identity and not taking the glory for it?
Realistically, what is there to gain from posting this stuff anonymously on a forum full of people who talk to eachother like shit?
Sodoku has pics of Paul O Keefe and masterbates 3 times a day
For what its worth the story from the 'Boro forum ITK on Spence is 'Deals finalised its just a case of social media, first interviews etc to be wrapped up before its 'out'
Another poster also says Spence missed 'Boro training today.
No idea if info is correct of course.
But if true we might hear tomorrow (Thursday) or Friday ..........
