Weve got too many centre backs now. All of them are extremely promising.
I think this is another board signing (young player, increasing in value). They cant all play. Very strange, when we are crying out for forwards that we would pay money for another centre back.
I agree. Unless somebody is leaving..... I suppose that will happen in the summer anyway and the board may have adopted the 'get em while you can' approach.

Misun didn't cost anything he was a freebie.

I dont really want to see Cuthbert or Lescinel leave. I think Cuthbert has been consistantly underrated by the football world. He is a top young defender and is worth over £500k but there has been no rumblings of a bid like that. How could the Sweaties call up Caddis who isnt even our best right back at a L1 club, and not Cuthbert? Bonkers. Lescinel could go either way, but is worth perservering with.

Youve got to keep the squad fairly lean. Competition yes, but 4 centre backs is too many.

Flint, Misun, Cuthbert, Frampton and LJF. That's 5, assuming Flint can push for a place straight away.

i thought 4 centre backs was the norm for most teams? decent amount of cover i think. considering we havn't seen flint or misun play yet i think we should reserve judgement on our starting cbs and about who, if anyone, will leave. for all we know misun could be miles better than ljf and maybe even cuthbert and so be pushing for a starting spot. we definitely have to keep frampton in though for the experience, playing 2 young cbs hasnt worked for us this season

What worries me more is the fact he's out of contract in the summer and we've heard nothing about him signing a new deal. I've got no problem with the amount of centre backs we have, just the balance and range of centre backs arent there. If you include Will Evans we have have 5 under the age of 24 - thus only one, senior defender. Which has been a problem and Frampton hasnt exactly been reliable with injuries unfortunately. If he does get injured again then we're in trouble even if we have another 5 centre backs who could play instead.

The lack of experience this season has been key. The amount of times yesterday the guy reporting on the watford v Brighton match was praising how organised the Brighton defence, Marshalled by Greer was pretty frustrating to hear.

Obviously they didn't now that Rogne would get injured on Saturday.

Based on this season's performances I'd take £500k for Cuthbert. Based on last season's performances I'd have laughed at £500k. As well as JPM he has been the most disappointing player this season. He's another player that needs a good coach - he's got one hell of a lot of talent but gone backwards this season.
