Centre back

Forget strikers for a while, what about the situation at centre-back. Apparantly Williamson is out for around 6 weeks, so what if Taylor or Collo get injured/suspended in that time?

We failed to get Situ, Tavernier is out on loan, and Kadar is not rated anymore.

So who would come in? Perch? Can Santon cover CB?

It would seem that if anything does happen to either of them we are screwed.

 

Tav can be recalled. Also Kadar can still play can't he - nothing against him playing.

 

The ever versatile Perch

Seriously though, we're ****ed

 

Also I wouldn't trust Tav as a CB - he is tall enough and if we end up playing Stoke/Blackburn - we need Saylor/Collo/Willo/Kadar playing. Hope Pards doesn't resign Sol

 

Santon can play anywhere across back 4 according to journalists in Italy.

 

Simmo and Santon can both play CB allegedly, we also have Kadar rotting in the reserves.

 

Something is clearly going to happen to either Taylor or Colo against QPR. It is just our luck, bound to happen

 

Coloccini very rarely gets injured, I think hes played almost every game since arriving so not worried too much about him but Taylor is the injury prone one, its only a matter of time before he gets his annual long term injury.

 

Hope them 2 can manage every game this season. If they do I can't see us finishing outside the top 10 but if one gets injured then yep, we are ****ed

 

According to Wiki Gosling has covered at the back before .. not sure whether he was poop or not though

 

RB though isnt it?

 

He can play right back - not sure how he could cope at centre back

Hasn't Simpson played centre back before? Despite being 5foot 8

 

so there we are .. shift Simmo inside and put Gosling on the right ... is there a <shudder> emoticon?

 

Imagine Simpson against Drogba :S

 

There is a one
nearly there.

 

I can see us signing a CB on a free, if not we're genuinely screwed!

Any ideas who though?

 

He probably couldn't handle Heskey never mind Drogba.

 

Apparently he not happy here and we tried to offload him yesterday to Aston Villa

Hope we get a couple defenders in January so the **** can **** off

 

It pisses me off that people are asking.. what if this this and this happens... when the situation you give ther is nothing we can do... what answers do you ****ing expect? honestly i think every ****er is aware of the situation so why are people asking what happens if this happens... honestly what answers are you ppl expecting?

YES WE KNOW WE ARE SHORT ATM.. NO THERE REALLY ISNT ANYTHING WE CAN DO... SHUT UP AND GET ON WITH SUPPORTING THE TEAM, FFS!!
(Caps for dramatic angry effect)

*rant over*

 

Not ideal but we have that many midfielders we could have a reshuffle and play tiote at cb,im sure he cud play there if needed!
