    Well... who our 'best' centreback is is of course subjective.(I would say it's Vermaelen)

    My point is that Mertesacker may well be chosen not because he is better but because its a more balanced defensive pairing.

    I may be wrong but I've got a feeling this will be the case.

    Did you say this when Shawcross broke Ramseys leg, as from what i remember your fans acted like shawcross was some form of hitman when it was just an accident.

    Mert will possibly start on Saturday, Kossy has withdrawn from the french squad with a calf injury.

    We had Bould for a season, aged 35, and he was the best defender I've seen in a Sunderland shirt to this day, even way past his best.

    He made everyone else's job easy, hence we finished 7 in our first year up.

    Legend.

    Steve Bould for manager ?

    He has a perfect record - played two, won two.

    Not even Wenger can match that <whistle>

    On a serious note though, he should be one to consider when Wenger calls it a day.

    All thanks to UEFA, and Wenger not following the rules.

    Wenger knows.
