I'd rather we spunked this money on a right back
I'd be happy waiting a year, let Johnson run his contract down, let him and Flannel Again fight for the place, with some serious competition and needing to play for a contract, Johnson might go back to good again.I'd rather we spunked this money on a right back

Exactly.If that's Johnson's attitude - turning up for work only when the contract's on the line, I hope Rodgers strings him along, gets the best year out of him and then cuts him loose.
Urgh.

Wait so Enrique is leaving?
Yeah I'm with you there but both Davies and Moreno?We need a back up

Every left back is a potential Bale nowadaysWe are getting both now?
Maybe we are getting Ben Davies because the stats people reckon we can move him up the pitch then sell him to Real Madrid.
Every left back is a potential Bale nowadays
Laudrup said last season that he didn't see Davies being a Bale in future.
He did go on to say that he thought he'd develop into a solid left-footed centre back. All 170cm of him in the EPL.
I'm on team Moreno.
Davies looks solid enough, but I can't see him improving the side massively. If we are going to put the extra body in CM and revert to one striker then the fullbacks we buy need to be able to support and contribute to the attack.
Davies doesn't have the pace to beat a man.
But does he like green eggs and ham?Beat a man he most certainly can.
Did you watch that Davies video above ? Beat a man he most certainly can. It's in defence I'm concerned about - whether it's Davies or Moreno - and between the two Davies seems the better option there.
totally depressing signing.
That does it! That's the last time I'm looking up stuff on whoscored. He's probably only 18 too. Everywhere else says 180cm like you guys said. The data entry clerk must've been thinking of Allen.

I've seen him a lot last year as I wanted to see how Shelvey was getting on at Swansea so watched a fair few of their games. Davies is a good, young player, but he's never going to progress into a world-class fullback, which is what we should be aspiring for.
Flanagan and an injury free Enrique already offer us a solid base.
Yeah but not every left back is welsh so it must be true.Every left back is a potential Bale nowadays
totally depressing signing.
Well those stats posted don't inspire confidence for Davies.
If he can stay fit I'm still relatively happy with Enrique, but RB now that's a whole other story.
Is McLaughlin ready to step up yet?
He wasn't in Brondby and doesn't appear to be in the USA squad either. He's a great prospect but unfortunately he seems to suffer from a lot of injuries
He may well grow out of that. There are loads of kids that struggle with injury and then become less susceptible when they're all grown up. Let's hope he's one of those, because the boy's got potential.
