      Let's be honest, nobody can be less composed on the ball than Sahko, and I think Toure will be let go.
      Definitely need a revamp at the back whatever.
      Sissoko and Johnson should be shifted out as well

      Definitely agree about Johnson,  but how old is cissohko? Is he young enough to be able to "make" better?

      You really want us to sign Cissokho permanently after his performances this season?

      He wasn't deemed good enough spurs, so why would we want/need him? Then again it was AVB who got rid of. Imo though we need a leader at the back. Another Carra, or john terry type figure.





      Who didn't have too shabby a Spurs record, especially in defence.

      Haven't we learned our lesson about buying big fish from small ponds yet? Is this lad really going to go from relegated Cardiff to dominating Europe's Elite in the Champion's league? I think we can do a lot better than this.


      Why? He's right.

      Never said that. Just thought that possibly he could get better alà Henderson due to his age. Yes his performances haven't been thebest in the limited gametime he's had. But he has pace and a seemingly good work ethic. His touch has been admittedly poor at times but how much can be contributed to nervousness/lack of experience in a new league? A highly pressured and fast league at that.

      And if we want to talk about defensive performances, well then basically no-one is getting off scott free after conceding 50 league goals and PROBABLY costing us winning the league.

      This is a tiresome argument. Liverpool lost six games. Chelsea lost six games. City (Champions) lost six games. It wasn't the defence that cost us, it was the timing of those games that did. Yes, our defence is leakier than an old bucket but when we only lost the same number of games as the Champions then not winning the title can't really be blamed on the defence.

      UTTER BALLS! Chucking away a 3 goal lead last week through shoddy defending. Having to score 4 to beat Swansea at Anfield. What about Stoke away? Or Cardiff away?

      Conceded as many as Palace FFS, who were pretty much awful until Pulis turned their fortunes around. We've had a fantastic season, but had the defence been solid as a top 4 teams defence should, it would be Liverpool lifting the league trophy, and not city.

      Give it a rest yourself and stop deluding yourself that our defence is fine! It's far from fine and needs to be/will be addressed accordingly. How far do you think we'll progress in CL leaking goals in this manner? Barca, both Madrids, Bayern would turn us over with posession/speed of movement.

      Obviously it's an issue but nows not the time to be whining about conceding too many goals it's a time to bask in the fact we scored 100+ league goals

      Thought the same thing.....

      On the topic of Caulker, I'd pass as I don't think he's any better than any of our current crop.

      Funnily, I think we would turn over the teams you have mentioned with possession/speed of movement.

      With all due respect, peps bayern, same as his barca, destroy absolutely everyone with possession.  Including better teams than currently our own.

      He's not.

      Sakho may well look uncomposed on the ball but hr he is far from it.
