when it comes to the transfer market... we are in dire need of a top class R/B but we have dithered on that all season we sell Tomkins to palace for ten million keep ginge in the twilight of his career now on the verge of signing fonte for eight million who is 33 a good player but we have oxford/burke who both could of done with a run in the team now we are out of the cups but are either loaned or on the bench....it just mystifies me somewhat as to how such deals are done....a lot more work needs to be done in this area of the club as there seems to be no direction or thought into what we actually require.

"crackle crackle crackle change the record son I think this one's broke!" We've got two right backs, Ginge is off to Palace so we need cover. F***ing RB this all the time, we need someone to score goals and create them, maybe the odd set piece!!!

Now Fonte has arrived Ogbona will finally be able to have the Op he has needed all season, no wonder he looked off the pace so much! Was playing through the pain barrier, unlike some!

ginge off to palace then why not get rid of him last august instead of Tomkins? and oxford/burke cover enough...two right backs mmm one had long term injury other one is injured and wanted out so your happy to have that position like that fair play......Antonio/lanzini create goals

All hindsight mate. Do we just keep buying rbs till one clicks. We could end up with 8 rbs. Tomkins isn't up to it mate. West Ham through and through he's average and nowhere near Fonte. Oxford is injured and Burke isn't ready imo, if he ever will be

We can quote 2 right backs as much as we like, infact why not mention our u23s right back or even the u18s? So that four right backs! In reality that's just crap isn't it. It holds no water at all. No one thinks we are gona throw in the kids and anyone who cites arbeloa.is living in a dream world. Bilic isn't gonna play him, he isn't good enough either and we are looking to get rid. If you count someone who isn't gona be considered then we don't need a striker. We have Carroll, sakho, fletcher, calleri, Martinez. That is five specialist strikers, that should be enough! Of course that's not an arguement because it's not just bodies we count its its what use are they to us! It's the same arguement. The only right back any use to us is byram, and he is unproven, inexperienced and always one booking away from being down to 10 men and one injury away from playing without a realistic defender in that position. Bilic isn't gonna play arbeloa get over it.

wasn't at Palace then mate, but know he's there apparently he wants one of his old men, it's a wonder Nolan's not there to. I think Fonte is a pretty good replacement for ginge as he has the experience that we need and being a winning international, the confidence we need along with Winnie to teach the young boys what will be needed when they are needed.

Rumour going around that ogbonna might be out for the season. And has been playing through injury for weeks, and needs surgery. Dunno how true it is though. Also how anyone can complain about signing southamptons captain is beyond me. We've been shipping goals, and as much as people will say right back is a dearer situation havent watched the last few batterings where most of the goals actually came down ogbonnas side... For all the praise Virgin van dijk gets for southampton its well known that the euro 2016 winner is a big reason they were so solid and havent looked as solid since he handed in a transfer request. Also Byram can be our 1st choice right back for years to come. The boy is quality.
