Who do you think will be our first choice back 4 next season? I think it may all depend on whether Bardsley plays LB or RB.

The first choice i would go for is;

Bardsley--- Bramble---Turner---- O'Shea

Second Choice

Brown----Turner----O'Shea-----Bardlsey

Its a hard one as you have got our player of the season who gives a 110% every game, two centre half's who played so well together last season up until injuries and finally two new signings who wont have come up to warm the bench. I think the one who may miss out is Titan (as there is always that doubt he may do a clanger) or Brown (the amount of injuries he has may disrupt the team).
 
Brown----Turner----O'Shea-----Bardlsey < this one for me weve got good cover aswell except LB it might be time to have a look at one of the young lads to provide cover
 
I too worry about the lack of pace and in particular, Turner's. For that reason I don't think he will be first choice, except those games when we thimk we will be bombarded with high balls.
My choice is O'Shea, Brown, Bramble, Bardsley.
 
Bardo is not a LB

Bardo Bramble OShea Ricco

Or

OShea Bramble Turner Ricco

Or

Bardo Brown Bramble OShea

We need pace in the side, the back 4 is not looking bad, lots of option and quality.

bardo seems like a prity good left back to me, probs the best defender at the club and is starting to get more involved with the attack now,
also he has added goals to his game what more do you want??
 
From what we have now I would personally go

Brown O'Shea Turner Bardsley

although I am really keen for us to sign an actual left back.

Would be harsh on Bardsley I know but you have to make big calls as you progress. I love his commitment to bits and he had a great year, and even if we do sign a left back he would play 20 games with our injury jinxes but he wouldnt make my 1st choice team.
