Rumoured Gregory van der Wiel

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Mind you, Gareth Bale left him for dead at times last night!

All Bale did was go faster down the wing than him. One-on-one he isn't that great again defenders, not to mention he's started diving now (just ask Xabi Alonso)

£40million, Harry? You must be mad.

Still top in my list a long with Sanchez and creative midfield.

Should sell Bosingwa and get this guy in the summer.

What about Ivanovic as our regular right back, then we would have 3 CBs, and Bosingwa as a back-up for Ivanovic?

Or that young Brazilian Wallace, who we partially own.

I think Bosingwa will be sold. Ivan is good defender, but he is better as CB then RB. We need some explosiveness on that downside, and Van der Wiel makes sense. It is why if we sell Bosingwa he should be our top priority along with Sanchez and a creative player.

Tbf I don't know anything about van der Weil.

Ivanovic was good last season and I like the idea of one attacking fullback and other much defensive one.That would even allow Luiz to go forward.

Well here is the thing. If we sell Bosingwa, and Paulo goes, we are left with Ivan who is not a RB to begin with.

I don't think that's a risk we want to take.

Ivan is good defender, but he was not as good as Bosingwa when he was at his peak. Now we have to look elsewhere, and i don't see a better option then Van der Wiel.

reports in Germany suggest that Bayern have pulled out of race for Ajax RB Gregory van der Wiel. might well mean that CFC deal is done

That's good, cause we need this guy.

[J.F. 1,484]

no, we don't.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Overrated and out-of-form.

Paulo Ferreira's a better option at this moment in time...

Just like some people say the same thing about Torres?

Even then we all know he is a good buy, just like this guy will be.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Touché, but with van der Wiel, he isn't world class. Unlike Torres.

As right backs go, we could do a lot worse, but I'd rather see Todd Kane be given a chance there.

That is a risk we have to take. Same as when we bought Bosingwa, Ivan, and such.

If he cost us 5milion ok.We have Paulo,Bosingwa and Ivanovic.These 3 players are better than van der Wiel.

Ivan is not a RB. He is a good defender, but he is not an explosive RB. We need one.

If Bosingwa is sold, then we will get Van Der Wiel. Otherwise it's a waste getting Van der Wiel with Paulo and Bosingwa.

Good point. Plus this lad is 23. He's got plenty of years..

[St Abramovich 175]

Rather have Contrao and maybe we could strike another deal with Benfica.

I have to say that I do think we need a right back, Paolo is getting old and Bosingwa hasn't really made the grade since his injury.

Ivanovic can't attack and we need a player who can take advantage of the freedom our right back is given and whip good balls in regularly with them all focusing on Ashley.
