Fofana, Soyuncu, Evans, Kabak and Cahill. That's a lot of CB's to keep happy, especially if Rodgers returns to 4 at the back (think he will) Momentum seems to be building for Kabak, so I think he will be the CB and then as others have suggested maybe a RW on loan if we are already spent up!

Just play Kabak in League cup/early stages of Europa. Soyuncu managed it and he seemed more mature at the same age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After watching him during the latter part of last season, I feel more confident in Cahill's fitness. Has Evans had an operation to fix things? Haven't heard anything. If not we're playing roulette with our defence. Good question about Evans, not sure. I wonder if we feel experience is/has been gained in both Cags and Wes to not warrant getting a Morgan/Evans replacement in. Wes cetainly seems more stable? reliable? than Cags, but maybe that is because Cags is so very exciting at times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really not a lot at all. 5?? You do know there's potentially 50 to 60 games to ply next year if we go far in the cups. Even if we don't play 3 CBs we have to rotate and account for injuries. Evans fitness is unreliable and Soyuncu and Fofana all missed spells last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Sionnach Posted 14 July 2021 Share Posted 14 July 2021 Its should be Soyuncu, Evans at the back , if Soumaré plays with Wilf, then Wilf can always drop back if necessary. No need for a fixed three CBs. I am hoping Jonny stays fit the whole season otherwise could be some serious wobbles at the back. With possible 50 games Fofana will get plenty of game time. Kabak(if he comes) is going to have to be very patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High class is probably a stretch, maybe 5 years ago in his best years at Chelsea but now he is nothing more than a bottom half centre back - but still agree he will do a good job for somebody, just not us 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filbertway Posted 14 July 2021 Share Posted 14 July 2021 Doesn't make sense that we'd spend so much on CBs when we've got probably the worst collections of wingers the top half of the Premier League has ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. Wonder if we are looking at 4-3-3 for next season with Vardy in the centre of Patson and Barnes. Similar to how Liverpool set up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we play a back 3, surely we need 2 CBs as Evans' fitness has put him in the WM category for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
