One of our few great pieces of business this side of the Toby transfer.Not sure you're right there BC, regarding Hojbjerg and KWP. My understanding was that PEH was £15M, whilst we sold KWP for £12M, so we effectively ended up with PEH for £3M actual cost.
With 3 CBs, you generally need 5 serviceable CBs at least.Dier can play on the left, he’s comfortable with his weaker foot unlike some players who can’t knock a ten yard pass. Need to be realistic, can’t have two players for every position like the fake oil conglomerates

Agree, so ideally we need to move two on loan and bring one in…. That player doesn’t have to be a leftieWith 3 CBs, you generally need 5 serviceable CBs at least.
With Rodon essentially out of the picture, and if you're being kind to Dav or loose with your interpretation of the word serviceable, we have 4.
Dier, Dav, Romero, Davies.
I guess Tanganga but we haven't really used him.
The theatrics from Alba are so cringeworthy

Oh this absolutely, mainly laziness on my part to just talk about Kane back up. What I more mean if forward back up. I’m not too concerned with what role someone is primarily used in currently, Conte is a good enough coach to help them adapt, but anyone who has the ability to be a target man but the pace to play off a target man will be most welcome.The only part of that I'd take big issue with is the Kane needs to be competed with more than Son. I think they both need to be competed with. Son's got some great qualities but also has some flaws and worst of them is that he can go awol for weeks on end. I'd like to buy a forward who can pay both roles preferably - down the middle and the wide forward, but failing that we need competition for both IMO.
This with bellsLazzari is a speed demon, one of the fastest players ive seen recently. The only reason he wants to leave is because he is a pure RWB and Sarri doesn't play a back 3 formation. I would definitely rather have him than one of the slowest players ive ever seen - Doherty.
I agree that it was bad acting involved but I have seen much worse acting than this for much less. Kounde throws a ball with full force into Alba's face with full force from 1 meter away. It was a clear red card.The theatrics from Alba are so cringeworthy
Are you referring to Gary Doherty?Lazzari is a speed demon, one of the fastest players ive seen recently.

After Alba rabbit punches him in the gut. Yellow each and move on...I agree that it was bad acting involved but I have seen much worse acting than this for much less. Kounde throws a ball with full force into Alba's face with full force from 1 meter away. It was a clear red card.

Ideally it would be a player comfortable playing either central CB or LCB. We need flexibility if we're using 3 CBs with only 5 on the squad.Conte doesn't seem to agree.
We have plenty of cover for the centre and the right but nothing for the left, haven't since Vertonghen left.
Rodon out on loan and a specialist LCB makes sense to me.
I like him but I can’t see us doing anything at that position till summer.Wonder if it’s worth taking a punt on Atal, now he’s back playing again. Don’t think he’d cost a bomb or big wages - he’d be pretty good as a rwb in Conte’s system - obviously the injuries would be a concern.
And Davies benched? He is a specialist LCBConte doesn't seem to agree.

Getting PEH further down the pecking order is the only way we get close to CL, be it current player progression or new signingQuite surprised a midfielder isn’t on the list? Lo celso and Ndombele clearly aren’t fancied. Skipp and Hoj can’t play every game.
Odd I’d say CM is in more need than the forward area.
