Maguire
Bailly
Lindelof
Jones
Smalling
Rojo
TaunzebeI’d argue only max 2 of those could claim to actually be CBs Nine ?

I think all three of United, Chelsea and Arsenal might have a similar problem there Ed albeit Chelsea haven’t got quite as many.?

Ed, on his day and fully fit, Bailey is an excellent player in my opinion
He’s just never fully fit. He can’t get a run of games to get fully fit or stay fit
I’d rate a fully fit Bailly who was performing well better then maguire
Sorry it seems like I’m akways bashing maguire but just look at him on Sunday. What was he at for the 1st goal? Much bigger issues then him at the bsck and not fully to blame for the goals but it was poor at the front post and not looking at the ball. I just don’t get him at all
Maybe he needs someone like kulbailu beside him.Bailey first came to my intention when Villarreal beat us 1-0 in 2016.he was a beast that day. He fast, strong, can tackle and not to bad in the air. He’s just injured to much

Yeah I rate Bailly as well Sean. Not getting into a Maguire debate again ?. I really rate Tuanzebe too but, like Bailly, he’s barely been able to play because of injuries. The less said about the others the better. Smalling, to be fair, is a very good defender too.

Ye fair enough Ed . Utd winning, Sancho signing and maguire are not going to be mentioned by me for a while ?
Always rated Smalling aswell . I’d have him over lindolf
Think we agree on jones. Really looked very good in 2011 but had really gone backwards. His confidence is shot

Not sure of bailey… like some due time injuries will just be one of those that never lived up to his potential… coming back from injury as a defender means you get less chance to ease in and can look bad
I’d look elsewhere myself
Smallish easily best of a bad bunch but the one sent away… odd_____________________________

Is all this because the game has changed to more attack minded philosophies with bringing and passing it out from the back with less defined positions and more interchangeable options? All of the top clubs bar Liverpool have had problems defensively. Is it becoming a lost art?

The passing out from the back is not good for the heart ?

Especially when my little do it they are so bad and leads directly to so many goal but you even see the smaller clubs like Norwich do it and it did for them

And interesting Steveo that clubs aren’t turning to managers like Big Sam anymore to get them out of trouble. They’re seemingly happy to go down so long as they play the ‘right way’.

Room for many styles in football, it is just the way they are executed that matters. Managers should only play within capability of players he has or suffer the consequences, then he becomes the fall guy

Reinier: Borussia Dortmund sign Real Madrid’s Brazilian forward on loan For 2 years
With the wealth of attacking talent Dortmund have already could this be paving the way for a sale of sancho?

Steve…I think the way Dortmund look at it is, they paid 8 million to City, they improved the player so now theywant a clear 100 million, so that is 108 million plus maybe 2 million for expenses.!!! They are in no hurry
