5354 204 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 We should get a RB that is at around the age of 28-29... and just to provide cover. Until the dude reaches the age of 32, by that time Todd Kane, hopefully would be able to mature and grow to become part of the first team.

capriccioso 2,545 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 If all else fails, Ramires can play there for a game or two. Still, it would be nice to ship out Paulo, much as I love him, and bring in a new right back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulo is okay being 7th choice RB. so i dont mind having a decent back-up who wont make a fuss out of not playing regularly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike 12,049 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Paulo bossed against Benfica. He is good for cover, but I always worry when he is in the Starting XI.There really is a shortage of Fullbacks in the world right now.Mauricio IslaAzpilicuetaGregory van Der WielMathieu DebuchyThere isn't the luxury of choice, really.

Imperative that we snap one of them up ASAP before they are taken by others. If not, we might end up with a 2nd or even 3rd rate RB in the future.

Wavy Crockett 190 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 forgot we can't get rid of Paulo Ferreira now that there's another brazilian who's probably not that fluent in English on the waywhen someone called him a £90k/week translator I crydied Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdenHazard 163 Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I've seen Kane play live, He looks like a player for the future. Given the right treatment i'm sure he'll become a quality player... Hutchinson? I'm not sure we can really rely on him for back-up, Not that i don't want it. Just it's pretty risky seeing as he's already retired once. I think we do need a RB, Just who? I've never seen either Van Der Wiel or Cesar Azpilicueta play. Just from what i've heard, Van Der Wiel is like Bosingwa. He's apparently awful at defending and poor at going forward. Also Van Der Wiel won't want to be sitting on the bench watching Ivanovic play. So whoever we get, They're going to have to realise they won't be playing week in - week out.

VilBo 10 Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Stephan Lichtsteiner would be perfect for us, not sure if we could get him from Juve but it would be worth a try, He's the best right back in Europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Styles 9,790 Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 It would be good to have a development RB, somebody you can use here and there and provide OK cover for Branislav. I like Todd Kane but he's only 18 and has plenty of work still to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apexbbq 2 Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 I understand that everyone is optimistic about Todd Kane, but why is no one mentioning Tomas Kalas? The kid had an amazing season on loan in the Eredivisie. Personally, I rate him much higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushman 2,043 Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Since roman wants to spend his money, I do not understand why anyone would object to buying Wiel ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutcho 8,443 Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 i think the problem is that Ivan is a great defensive right back and bos is a great attacking right back and there is no balance. for example ashley Cole is amazing at both. i think if Roman wants to buy one then why not though if we are smart we could play Ivan in the tougher games then in the easier fixtures play someone like David Luiz there as it gives him a bit more license to roam forward and can still do a good job at the back as we saw through the progression of last season.

It was a disaster lol, he didn't know wtf to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apexbbq 2 Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Because he played CB and not RB. Great prospect though.You're right, he was primarily used as a center back for Vitesse, but he is equally competent at RB. Neil Bath, our academy manager, described him as a "right-sided center half who can play right-back". Personally, I think he has the versatility to succeed at both positions.

Hutcho 8,443 Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 RDM tried Luiz at RB for a half last season. It was a disaster lol, he didn't know wtf to do.Yeah but as with any position if he takes that and trains him for it in the summer then it could work. I dont think one half is enough to say he cant play there. obviously we dont know whether it was something they went through in training and he still couldnt do it in which case its fair enough and we will do something else. I would think David would work extra hard to learn it as it would mean a starting place in the team... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
