Not many good right backs available in the market.Should keep Iva as our first choice for right back,Paulo as our second and gradually play Hutchinson in that role.

A very risky move. IF Ivanovic gets injured, suspended or is used in CB because of injuries like now, we'll be stucked with Ferreira only. He's already 33 and can't expect him to still perform well everytime we play him. Regarding Hutchinson, we all do want to see him play in the starting XI but it all depends on whether he can recover fully from his injury problems. Until that happens, we definitely need a new RB in the summer.

He had one good season. He thinks he can play like Dani Alves but he is more akin to Dani Alves not playing for Brazil or Barcelona. The Bosingwa comparisons are too harsh, he isn't at that level...yet.

Wow, at people saying he's another Bosingwa. Just watch him at the European Championship this summer, maybe you'll turn around. He's way better defensively than Bosingwa could ever hope to be.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. We only bought Bosingwa because he impressed at Euros 2008 and look what has happened since then!

Remember, Bosingwa was a heck of a RB in his first season with Chelsea, but ever since those injuries he has never been the same :(

He was good under Scolari but even after the injuries he has had, there is still no excuses for his pathetic defending every time!

I think you're too harsh on that. His 1-on-1 defending is quite okay, but it's true that he isn't a defensive monster like Ivanovic.

its shocking how there are only a handful of quality full-backs across Europe

Yea, there's been a major decline. I'm actually of the belief the best right-back in the world is Sagna.
