Re: Transfer News....
I don't get the hype of a 34 year old Alves. The only positive is we get him on a freebie as did Juventus, so it would have been a bloody rip off if their had been a fee.I just hope he still has enough about him to be of use to us. He is good going forward but his defending is well ordinary which to me is not solving our full backs problem, Which in turn as we have already said causes problems for our central defenders. That saisd I have heard the same about Mendy in terms of forward & defensive duties.

I think the idea, as usual, is we will be attacking so much we don't have to worry about defence so much.

Re: Transfer News....
That was detrimental to us last season. I think Pep would have learnt that whilst it is great to attack there are times when we have to show a bit of grit & dig in & that being the case would ensure we get some wing backs who have defensive qualities as well as offensive in.

I saw today we are to sell Fernando to Newcastle for 5m. They are supposedly ahead of Southampton & WBA in the race to sign him although City want 8 million for him. I would have used the fee to offset the cost of Van Dijk at least then we have a reason to negotiate with them & put saints ahead in the queue.

Re: Transfer News....
I think we just want some more players off the books. It's not just for the money but I guess it's hassle having them and not using them.

Re: Transfer News....
I agree dawg but surely if as widely reported we are looking for a centre back then use the opportunity placed at your disposal to get a deal which will be of benefit to both parties.
