    Agger who only played half a season would have been a better option to keep than Lovren or skrtl.

    Skrtl

    As he could score both ends :bandit:

    He was a half decent defender as well.

    Mourinho has admitted he can only win if he outspends his opponents by about 10 times

    We can all do that <doh>

    He was behind Vertonghen, Bailly and Alderweireld BEFORE his injury imo.

    He’s looked like a shadow of that player since, it remains to be seen whether he can regain that form

    I'd say he was definitely as good as Vertonghen. Not see enough of Bailly really.

    A shadow is also overstretching it, he hasn't been that bad this season.

    We could have hired pullis if that was our ambition.

    Klopp may be niave in how ****e we are at defending. But we certainly ain't boring to watch.

    He’s been little better than average when I’ve seen him, and certainly not someone who justifies smashing the World Record transfer fee for a defender by nearly 30% mate.

    It’s barmy money

    But our focus is on attacking. We have mentally weak defenders who crumble. Hoping our signing sorts this, but won't know until he plays and got a few games under his belt sadly.

    Rather be 4th with a ****e defence than where you are personally as we have something to build on.

    You say the same?

    There's been a couple of games where he's been very good but I agree that he's been a bit below par, probably down to fitness/attitude more than anything. I'd still say shadow bit strong though.

    Agreed it's barmy money, really wasn't expecting 70 upfront.

    I mis-judged the flight of a long punt in my final sunday league game. Ended up flicking it on and helping tge attacker. I was taken off at HT and never given a chance to make amends.

    There was a Bayern Brazilian defender called Dante. Vergil and Dante would have been able to navigate our hellish defence aptly.
