Like I said before, with our injuries and uncertainty of a couple of players, we need to fill about 3 positions, either for starters or backups. Another wide player, a CDM, and at least one great CB. I know thats not realistic all at once, but I think thats what we need. And if everyone including Rosicky comes back fit and to form, then we have a really great squad me thinks.
Yes of course I can see that but I blame it on the lack of DM not on the CBs.
When we've conceded goals recently people have pointed the finger at our CBs but often there wasn't much they could've done about the goals.
As I said a few months ago, of the 8 goals we'd conceded up to that point 6 of them were scored from outside the area i.e. in front of the back four - just where the DM is SUPPOSED to be.
I'm not saying the CBs are flawless but they're the same two that did well last year and the only thing that's changed is the lack of DM in front of them. They didn't suddenly become talentless.
Bad form is only temporary in relation to Kolo.
Good point, and that is part of the problem, I still think we need both. Another reason for our bad defensive form is our offense. We havent' been controlling the play and keeping possesion as much this year either, that instantly effects our defense.

). I just dont like any of our CB partnerships atall unfortunately . What do you think about having 2 different types of defenders? Similair ones dont seem to work in my opinion.
