That’s what I’m wondering. Are we better beefing up the central defence and keeping O’Brien at right back. Playing at fullback for a while didn’t do Lescott any harm.
In which case we need to buy a new centre half, even if we, for reasons I cannot comprehend, keep kalamity Keane. Or, and stay with me here, we could just buy an actual RB. Who could play at RB.
Or he's saying that with the unprecedented amount of players out of contract or on loan he doesn't want to have to buy 7 players to replace the out of contract ones and 4 new players to add to the team.
There are players who we could offer new...
Was about to post a tasteless joke, but nah: poor sod - seems like a decent bloke trying to help others. Wish him the best. If he'd have played for us he'd have been cult hero, I'm sure.
Michael Owen is easier to listen to than the weasel word guy, who I assume is some sort of former official who doesn't want to say anything definitive.
