FFS hes a winger, why do you try and claim every player we sign or rumoured to be interested in are going to be for behind rom, hes never played that role in his life and i doubt he'll start now

Who else have I done that with apart from Shaqiri? Shaqiri is a No 10 and played there almost all of last season with Inter but I don't want to get flash backs of that argument.

Lets look at it this way, if rom broke his leg and misses several months, can we rely on Kone for that long?
if colemans does similar cna we rely and thrive with Hibbert there?
same for if a few wingers pick knocks like it seems they always do with us
If barkley is out for several months, even as bad as hes been, we still wouldnt thrive while Naismith is the back up

Ok, now all that I agree with, but we can not afford to have that level of quality for every position. Surely you see that ???

We either have 2 decent(ish) players for a position, like Jelavic and Victor....or we have 1 top draw and 1 average, like Rom / Kone.

Ideally maybe Rom / Benteke or Ronaldo, but that's just not realistic, mate.

If Hazard broke his leg Chelsea wouldn't win the league. That's always going to be the risk. There's only so much you can do to plan for it. We can't afford or attract someone like Remy to sit on our bench.

No ones saying a benteke, just anyone competent would be a improvement, just even a loan.

As you say with the money, that goes to an entirely different argument, ridiculous how theres still not much wedge to work with

Of course they would because they still have several class players, maybe not in his bracket but still boss none the less

That's the reason why we're trying to get Wilson plus Kone isn't as awful as he has been made out to be. He scored a fair few goals at Wigan.
