I know there a few threads going around about which players we want this summer, but i want to know, who is the right back (the position we seem to lack in) that you would bring in keeping in mind our budget.
I can't think of any right back that is either better than what we've got or would be an improvement to our squad.I feel sorry for Tony Hibbert, whilst he's not the best right back in the country he's constantly exposed down the right and therefore the opposition try to exploit that.Arteta does'nt work back to help him nearly enough as he should do, instead he's relying on Yobo or Jagielka to come across to help in the wrong area of the field, basically the final third.
Vim i think thats a little harsh on arteta, he's not had the best of seasons but he works really hard on tracking back.an does well at it.
The real problam is hibberts positional play, sometimes he's like a kid on a school yard. the ball from right to left does him every time. But saying that he's not let us down to many times this season.
Ryan Taylor- we bid for him befroe!
Apparently we are after Romanian right back Cosmin Contra , no, I've never heard of him either.
to b honesty not sure if chimbonda is a left or right back but if he were right i think he would add an attacking edge to oue defence and by no means the worse defender you have seen either
He's 32, and according to Wikipedia likely to return to Romania; so it seems like a non-starter to me unless he's available on a free. He is an 'attacking full back' which sounds good to me, and scored a vital last minute equaliser last Thursday against Bayern, which is one more goal than Hibbert's ever scored for us !
