Chambers wouldn't be coming as back up. He has played for England and spent his entire career in the Premier league. He is comfortable at right back too. Played there alot for Arsenal. Would be a huge signing for the club.

Ooh another one I’ve heard of, before our interest!

Zaroury is predominately a left winger but is right footed so I guess we're hoping to he can play on the right.

I do wonder if the links to some of the more unproven right wingers (Gordon, Goodrham, Esse) is that we're actually going for a third signing today and covering our backs on the right hand side and spending any spare pennies we have.

He does play on the right... last time Burnley were on TV thats exactly where he played.

Chambers story has to be bullshit.

He's 29, former England international at Villa. Wages wise, he'll be on more than the entire back four of our last match put together.

That would be ridiculous. But when we let Smith go out on loan, it suggested he would bring in a centre back. Why would he weaken any area of the squad if we are going for a promotion push? Unless he rates young Ashbee more?

Why would City allow us to send him back?

We can't just stop paying his wages because he got injured and we don't fancy paying him any more

Thought I'd read somewhere he was back at ManC to recover, not sent back as in end of loan.

The turk who reported Chambers has deleted the post! So who knows, but might not be happening

It would have been a great signing but his wages must be huge and I cannot see him coming here to sit on the bench, but could play right back though.

It would not look good just sending him back if you have any thoughts of trying to buy him in the next window, and Delap may appreciate being in and around the club especially as he played his part if we make the play offs.

This is why it's odd. We surely wouldn't go and sign someone of that profile when Jones is already one of our best players. Dropping him for a bigger name coming in would be bizarre, but so would Chambers sitting on the bench.

I think he's a right back more than a centre back, he can just play in both, sure majority of his games have been at full back.
