new defensive signings (self.reddevils)

bapeimpala が 投稿

While I'm elated at the thought of Pogba signing, is it just me who thinks our defense still needs some work? With Rojo and/or Jones potentially departing, who would you like to see arrive?

Seems like an underrated mention whenever this question gets asked lately...But I really would be satisfied with Miranda, he's experienced, and he's 31 so he'd be a good short term signing. Bonucci straight up won't happen and just I get the feeling Manolas won't leave. Koulibaly hasn't proven me enough yet for the type of calibre we need. Someone who's a leader and is experienced, Miranda fits that bill

Back in March when Di Marzio linked Miranda with us... I kinda could see this happening even though he's on a 2 year loan deal at Inter, maybe could force a buy

I'd really like Mustafi. It's a shame he seems to be Arsenal bound and that for an absolute bargain.

Is he?

It's only been really unreliable links so far hasn't it? And I keep reading about FFP balancing but Valencia fans are pretty adamant that the Gomes deal was enough for that. So all in all, I don't see Mustafi leaving for £21m.

You might be right. I can only remember reports linking him to arsenal for like £25m, but I don't remember the reliability.

No, I believe he's definitely on the market, but when I think of him, all I have are visions of Pogba sending him back to bed in the semis.

I've also seen a few Valencia fans on /r/soccer saying that he hasn't been that good since Otamendi left.

I don't think Rojo and Jones will leave. In terms of CB's there are none available that would be an improvement on what we have. I posted this yesterday which somes up what I think:

I'd be just as happy with one of Jones/Bailly/Blind/TFM/Tuanzebe partnering Smalling as I would be with any of Manolas/Toprak/Koulibaly/Mustafi/Murillo

We're lucky we got Bailly early in the window because now we're seeing Chelsea, City and Arsenal struggling to find a good CB for a good price and being forced to bid £38m on Koulibaly and £50m on Stones

there are none available

miranda

I'm not sure who we should sign but I do think we should sign a proven CB and maybe a RB.

[–]GourangaPlusPlusPartial to Martial 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

What sources do you have for Jones leaving?

[–]deathlohk 0ポイント1ポイント  (5子コメント)

I hope we sign Fabinho

[–]Launch_a_poo 4ポイント5ポイント  (2子コメント)

I'm happy with Valencia and Darmian personally

[–]sylheti27Schneiderlin 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

He can also play CDM. I remember Monaco using him there for their European games.

If Schweini leaves and depending on Blind, he's very young and might be a good buy.

[–]cm2683 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I can't see us selling a multifunctional player who can cover fullback and DM in Blind only to replace him with a multifunctional player who can cover fullback and DM in Fabinho. If we sell Blind, there won't be a replacement, based on Mourinho's comments.

[–]Yeahthatsnotright5Herrera 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

I hope not. We signed four starters (including Pogba). There's no more room for first year starters on the team. We need to do with what we have. Darmian is excellent on his day and I have no doubt he will be one of the best RBs under Mourinho and with a natural RW in Miki supporting him. Valencia is a more than capable backup. Mourinho put Varela on a loan who will hopefully also come back next season when Valencia drops

[–]cristiano10sMartial 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I feel we need a CB a lot more than we need a RB. Darmian showed promising signs last year and deserves a second chance as much as anyone

[–]spoofexKing Cantona 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I'd say with Bailly and Smalling we've got our dedicated back two with Jones and Rojo as backups. We don't need anymore full backs as we have 2/3 in each spot that can play there.

Think we're done after Pogba apart from a few exits.

[–]amayes94Mayes 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

Ashley Williams Or Benedikt Höwedes would be perfect complementation to smalling

[–]bapeimpalaDe Gea[S] 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

yes, Howedes would be great!

[–]digitagCarrick 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I actually think we're pretty set in defence. That is, if Bailly lives up to expectations and turns into a top level CB. We've got good back up across the back 4.

I'd like to keep hold of Blind for his versatility as an intelligent fill-in in almost all defensive positions and I'd like to keep Rojo and Jones if they are happy to stay.

There's still a part of me that thinks Jones has what it takes to be a starting CB, he's just been so long out of regular football.
