Saint_clark Posted 23 July, 2015 Share Posted 23 July, 2015 How long's he out for then? I know some people regard him as a flop but I think he was a shrewd signing. Put in tremendous performances away to Arsenal and particularly United, coming on for Toby after 16 minutes and all of us fearing the worst before having Rooney in his back pocket. £7million might seem a lot and a bit of a waste but for a CB who you can trust to stand in up against anyone it might not be that much after all.

Saint Bones Posted 24 July, 2015 Share Posted 24 July, 2015 So I guess we are looking fro 2 x CB's now... Unless RK think one of the youngsters is ready to step up ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpine_saint Posted 24 July, 2015 Share Posted 24 July, 2015 Bad news, hope he recovers well and as soon as possible. Replacing Toby is now becoming a crisis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special K Posted 24 July, 2015 Share Posted 24 July, 2015 Quite a blow. I think he's a good player who did well when he came in last season. Hope the recovery goes well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pingwing Posted 24 July, 2015 Share Posted 24 July, 2015 Bad news, hope he recovers well and as soon as possible. Replacing Toby is now becoming a crisis. Is running out of milk also a crisis? Still have plenty of time left in the transfer window and probably have several targets lined up. Should be able to sign a permanent cb and a loan in that time (I'd want Zouma on loan) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadoldgit Posted 24 July, 2015 Share Posted 24 July, 2015 A "crisis" would be starting the season without any CHs but by my count we still have 5 who could play there. Still there are always some who will make a mountain out of a molehill. Apparently we were looking to bring in one anyway and RK says maybe that will be two now so perhaps one on loan? Not quite meltdown material just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mowgli Posted 24 July, 2015 Share Posted 24 July, 2015 I think probably one centre back would suffice with Stephens, McCarthy and Turnbull starting to feature in and around the first team. I suspect a late signing from Celtic but we'll see. Sad news for Florin and it sounds a nasty injury. Let's hope he makes a full and speedy recovery. Best of luck mate....

In fact, if you got a moment, it's a twelve-story crisis with a magnificent entrance hall, carpeting throughout, 24-hour portage, and an enormous sign on the roof, saying 'This Is a Large Crisis' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Garrett Posted 24 July, 2015 Share Posted 24 July, 2015 Bring in one top CB and have Turnball or Stephens as fourth choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Charlie Posted 24 July, 2015 Share Posted 24 July, 2015 The 4th choice CB will play quite a number of games over the season, especially if we play in Europe. Remember when Hooiveld was fourth choice and we lost pretty much every time he played? If Koeman thinks Stephens is good enough to play PL matches in a key position and not be targeted as a weak link then brilliant, great to have another young player in the team. But if he thinks he isn't ready for that then we need two CBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasnt convinced by Stephens or Turnbull when I saw them against Leipzig. Edited 24 July, 2015 by alpine_saint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scorchio21 Posted 24 July, 2015 Share Posted 24 July, 2015 He had a mixed first season with us and was a bit inconsistent in his performances. But he has the makings of a good defender and I can see him hopefully following a similar path to Yoshida, who similarly was unreliable at first but in time grew in confidence. This injury is obviously a bigsetback but at 26, time should still be on his side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
