Kaboul - Vertonghen with Dawson & Caulker backing up seems pretty decent to me. Honestly don't think there's any tinkering needed with the back 4 & keeps, just wave cheerio to Old Bill Gallas.

Who starts the most over the whole season when both are fit. Long term injuries result in the bet being voided. :bae:Not a problem. What are we basing this on? How are we doing this?
First 5 games of the season? Or most starts for the whole season?
Is there going to be small print for injuries, etc?

Who's the crazy fool that thinksVertonghenDawson shouldn't be starting next year?.
You didn't read the post immediately preceding yours, apparently.I am shocked that quite a sizeable majority want him dropped in favour of someone who hasnt played all season, and when featured at U21 level got injured after a half.
Get a grip everyone.
I voted for Kaboul to join him but of course it all depends on how he recovers from being out so long. Hoping Caulker gets a chance to develop as well without starting to think about leaving for more first team action.

Kaboul had one great season, yes. But he is being hyped up on here though, as if he is the next Nesta or something...
Dawson has been consistantly good, a great servant to the club and captain. I will take a bet with anyone, that next season he will be in the starting XI and Kaboul will be benched & only played in the Europa.
I cant see Daws being dropped for any reason. Not at any stage this season did he suffer a dip in form to warrant it.
and give Daws a fair crack. My opinion is that Kaboul will do just that and take over from Daws.
He's not being hyped up like he's Nesta, only like he's better than Dawson.Kaboul had one great season, yes. But he is being hyped up on here though, as if he is the next Nesta or something...

And I'll happily take you up on that bet, provided Kaboul remains fit, of course. Loser donates £10 to the charity of the winner's choice.
I suspect Kaboul will also fill in at right back in the same way Vertonghen has at left back this season. We could in theory have all 4 players in the same starting XI
