Which CB would you sell? (self.reddevils)

scv87 が 投稿

I think it's a given that we need a new strong possibly world class central defender.

If this means selling one of our existing central defenders, who'd you sell? And why?

The options being: Rojo Bailly Jones Smalling

None of them tbh, Rojo has shown how good he truly is this season, and Jones has shown that, if he cuts out those silly mistakes, he can be a top class defender, and footballer in general. Smalling has been poor this season but it would be incredibly dumb just to sell someone for one bad season, especially after how well he's played the last two. If one had to go I'd probably pick him, but hopefully that isn't the case and he'll find his form again.

TBH smalling and jones neither have the ability to be class due to jones recurring injuries and smalling is great at defending but so bad on the ball and passing the ball. Rojo may be rash but at cb he is solid would rather us try get tuanzabe into the team and sign a proven 26 year old plus with experience like howedes or manolas (just examples)

Jones has had a pretty decent season ..

[–]VanWilder91 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Ya but he's more to injury than Ledley King

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

his current injury is unlucky, but not similar to the reoccurring injury he has.

since he took himself seriously this season and started doing pilates he was practically injury free.

I never said he hasn't but look how much football he has played since we signed him and he might even be out for the rest of the season. You can say you want him as your first choice?

He had a few good weeks in feb and then back to normal with the mistake and injuries

Smalling

[–]scv87[S] 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (4子コメント)

Why?

[–]Eight_Two 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Because he's been the worst out of all our Center Backs. Appallingly poor on the ball and nowhere near as solid as last season defensively. Doesn't look like a defender that you'd want in a team chasing titles. He'd be a good backup I suppose but we have backups who have been better than him so he has to go.

Because he's been most poor this season

So, if Bailly plays poor next season you want us to sell him the summer after that? Smalling has performed better for the longest time(1.5 seasons) for us among the defenders we have. Just putting this out there.

I just typed what his reason would be. My own personal viewpoint on the matter is closer to what you said

[–]northernseoulSmalling 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (1子コメント)

My flair will probably show my bias but the amount of people here willing to get rid of Smalling after one poor season is surprising. He was the most solid CB for the best part of 2 seasons (whether that's due to lvg's tactics is beside the point) and don't forget he missed a lot of the start of the season through injury.

The fact that he's both England and United vice captain must mean that management see something in him as well.

If I had to choose between the above it would be Jones. Too injury prone for me.

honestly he had one good season, the good season is the anomaly and not the mediocre seasons he had.

[–]stats193Martial 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Jones and Smalling since they have both been here neither has shown long term consistency with there form on the pitch or there physical robustness to be relied upon almost every season since they have been here they leave us short handed for one reason or another.

Out of all areas on the pitch centre backs should not be chopped and changed and these two have proven they can't be relied upon.

[–]labtecozaFellaini 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

None of them. We haven't seen enough of Bailly to see if he's good or bad. Jones and Rojo are having good seasons. Smalling is the poorest currently but he was the best the previous two seasons imo.

[–]danskzwag 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Jones and Smalling both havent stepped up in the time required, both are way too poor on the ball for a modern cb and both are injury prone .

[–]treytakzona 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Smalling because he's too antsy with the ball. I'm not a big fan of Rojo either but he's stepped it up the past few weeks.

Bailly was showing top class form in the beginning of the season but hasnt looked the same since AFCON/injury. He's still young with huge potential though. Jones is handy to have around because he's quality when he's fit.

Jose should try to pair Bailly/Jones/Rojo with a ball playing CB that's also great in the air. I would also like to see Tuanzebe given a proper chance. Look at Michael Keane! He's been one of the best CBs in the league for Burnley. Don't know what we got if we don't give our youngsters a chance

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

Rojo has been great this season and let's hope it continues. Our strongest CB.

Bailly has potential but also looks great when he plays, he has had a few off games but overall everyone agrees for a first season in the league he's settled well.

Jones is injury prone but defends like his life is on the line. He had a great run defensively with Rojo in our unbeaten run.

Smalling is our captain and is great in the air but he does invite pressure with his terrible passing range/ back passing and isn't great at tackling when the ball is on the ground.

Personally I'd pick Smalling even if he is our captain.

None of them at the moment. With the consistent injuries on pretty much all fronts squad depth is something that needs to be addressed before selling anyone else. I would very much prefer to see at least 1 CB and 1 CM brought in over the summer.

[–]jorgelucas7 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Smalling and Jones. I'm not sure what is your expectations, but mine is to have United winning the cl, and no cl winning side would have Smalling and Jones as their cb pair. Bailly has gigantic potential and Rojo is a good cb who can cover lb and never gets injured.

Rojo

[–]Hxc_mike 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Why would you sell rojo when he has probably been our best cb bar bailly?

[–]scv87[S] 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Just my question, why?
