Crucial positions;

GK because we need a keeper who play in a high line and start quick attacks

RCB for obvious reasons

DM/CM to protect the defence and provide more quality on the ball in the midfield

Wide forward/Striker to add pace and dynamism to the front line.

 

I don't disagree, spend properly on a couple positions. Just the positions I think need improving are CB cm and wide forward rather than a GK and CF. Mig takes a lot of stick but he's not a bad keeper and has kept us in countless games.

 

Absolutely, he's not getting the credit he's due. Another keeper shouldn't be a priority for us.

 

Shot stopping should be bread and butter for a keeper. It's things like commanding the area, distribution, leadership which sets keepers apart.

I think it is a priority because we need a keeper who is used to starting in a higher position and start attacks quickly - it's crucial.

 

And yet a lot of keepers aren't very good at it... His reactions are second to none and that's what makes him a better keeper than average at shot stopping.

 

Not disputing his shot stopping - it's brilliant. But that's only one element of goalkeeping. We need to upgrade.

I suppose the priority of upgrading that position is subjective, but he Deffo needs replacing.

 

Agree on this, when collecting the ball he often looks to release early but rarely does

 

I remember when we had Reina and we scored white a few goals because of his ability to spot a player quickly.

 

Exactly. Mugs gets the ball and half the time when he kicks it out it goes straight back to the opposition. That's when he clears the back line.

 

Glad you can remember dude, would be concerned if you couldn't since it was only a few years ago

 

The only really good keeper we've had this century I think... he was such a relief after Dudek.

Have you forgotten the mighty Brad Jones already?

 

Pegguy Arphexad was the best keeper we (n)ever had

 

Intange?

 

How many (none) medals has he got ?? I rest my case

 

At least baby Lovren is expected to be good.

 

I drink to forget but it doesn't work. I need something stronger.

 

Keep searching for the answer dude

 

Is it April 1st already? A Laurel and Vardy piece:

Real Madrid are interested in a January transfer move for Leicester City forward Jamie Vardy, according to reports in Spain.

The Spanish giants are set to enter the market for a new forward and Vardy’s form has not escaped their attention.

The England international, 28, has scored 10 goals in 10 Premier League matches this season and his sensational form has not gone unnoticed.

And Fichajes have astonishingly reported that Real are considering signing Vardy to provide competition to Karim Benzema.

They believe he would be an excellent second striker to challenge Benzema for a starting spot.

And as he’s not played in Europe, they could register him for the Champions League in January.
