That's laughable, Arry got sacked for less and we were actually good to watch then.

First half you destroyed us (and our lacklustre 4-4-2 that was embarrassing). Second half AVB said everyone behind the ball lads 2-0 is in the bag, stupid mistake.

'Arry is a bigger *** though, no one should want him back

No up and coming CB is going to want to join us with Vidic, Ferdinand, Evans, Smalling and Jones ahead of them. Not sure how we could have more strength in depth really.

Yep but the problem is we seem to have 2/3 of them out injured all the time. Not to mention Smalling and Jones are both covering right back as well, so if they're out then it's two positions we don't really have cover for.

What happened to that young defender we got from City, did he go out on loan?


Blimey, Lindegaard was fortunate that didn't go in off him.

Spot on. As I've said before no other club in Europe could deal with the amount of injuries in one area of the pitch as us namely because no other club in Europe has the amount of defenders as we do

Frank I know you struggle to understand simple concepts, but they're not cover if they're out injured. How many times have we had to play midfielders at right back, midfielders at centre back, Despite having 'plenty of cover'? The fact is we may have 5 centre backs but a lot of them seem to be very injury prone.

No, he's playing at the U21 I believe.

He was just taken on on the off chance, was released from City.
 
Can't believe we just got beat by Swansea 3-1 at freaking home! How does Joe Cole even stay in Melwood is beyond me, just pay the **** off and be done with it! Seriously depressing how he is stealing a living for a footballer when we could have played Dani Pacheco, someone who actually tries. Really, really annoyed at that.

Every team still only has a maximum squad size as well - or should we have 15 defenders just in case some of them are injured?

Thats probably too simple a concept for you too - but dont fret
