If the right player doesn't exist there's no point spending a lot, plus I'm hoping Enrique will be fit and our main LB IF Bertrand could be rehabilitated from Antifootball FC like Sturridge was then I think he would be a good addition for £7m
I do like Bertrand, playing for Villa was only going to highlight his defensive capabilities as Villa are trash, he did well there tbh. Lack of game time is an issue, but it feel he will be a back up/competition for Enrique, he knows that if his fitness isn't up to scratch he's dropped so can only be a positive. No to Ben Davies.
well dury out for me, we have gone from looking at spending £20 mill on a LB to now £7 mill, yes i would like to see Enrique do well, but not going to happen is it and will get injured. i would rather the quality come in and Enrique rotates, which wont be much of an issue for WHEN, not if, he gets injured. we always go the cheap option, and hasn't got us any where, hope you are right and he could turn out good, but not convinced personally.
Just read a rumour on BBC Wals twitter that a Davies Sigurdsson swap could be on the cards. If so, we must be out of the picture.
Those stats make Shaw look pretty bad compared to the others. (as a full back) Worst Tackles Won. Worst Pass Completed. Worst Interceptions.... although decent at Aerial duels (not frequently a full back priority)- he only really shines at chances created.
"Meanwhile, Barcelona have allowed 22-year-old forward Cristian Tello to join Portuguese side Porto on a two-year loan deal." buried in middle of http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/28327201 interesting kind of deal yeah?
Thank you... tried to think about what would be appropriate... I had the Japan one during the world cup- and hurriedly replaced it with a random tile from a game I'm writing when Japan got knocked out... something neutral until I could think what I wanted. Now I know so that boring cave wall tile has gone!
