do we need to buy another CB???!!

Think Alonso is pushing for Ramon if we sell another CB.

Sarr I just don't have a full opinion on from my limited viewing. Seems he like lacks the aggressiveness you want in a CB in the Prem. 6'4 and has a worse aerial % than the midget Lisandro Martinez.

Anselmino the same. Looks very soft.

Badiashile can just f**k off.

Disasi will likely go.

Tosin is 50/50.

A player from the french side that i do also really like is Kone and i think he is having a decent tournament as well. Plays for Roma, and i think could be reasonably priced. I just think that the has the mobility, strength and technical ability to fit in with Caicedo in the middle.

seen a few Roma games, as i do have a bit of a soft spot but i'll be the first to admit that i have not seen loads. What i have seen from Kone always seems to impress me.

Funniest thing was when Bayern genuinely thought clubs wanted him.

Hang on; always though he was sh*t, but he has been brilliant this season

He’ll be coming to the Premier League this window I reckon but I think he goes to a club in the Champions League.

He’s a player for sure.

I saw a lot of comparison to Fofana who is more of of a rcb than a ccb and just a quick goggle and lacroiz played mostly as ccb last season which mean Colwill will probably will play as lcb.

Lacroix is a fantastic player and we were stupid not to sign him from Wolfsburg when the club identified him as a replacement for Christensen. He has been scouted by Chelsea for years.

Man City smacked 6 past them this season and Lacroix was the only defender who looked like he belonged on the pitch.

I very much see this as an early barometer of the relationship Alonso will have with the club. Lacroix could be our most important signing and this mob having been briefing about getting a ready made PL quality CB for the last 3 months.

I have absolutely no faith or trust in the two Bob tinpot clowns we have here, so I would be amazed if this actually happened. Fail with this and it would be an early indication that this isn't going to work for Alonso.

And it's already starting to go very quiet.

To be fair. They are very good at keeping things quiet, they don't seem to leak a running update on their movements like other clubs.

Feels like we need to off load at least one of our 500 centre backs before we buy, and possibly Palace want a replacement in place too.

The rumour I heard was just that. The other part of the rumour was that they wanted Chalobah even though there are noises coming out of Italy it is quite possible that his final destination will indeed be Palace .

Dont be at all surprised if 2 or 3 of our current bunch are gone come matchday1
