Centre back cover is top priority for us in my opinion, but the bulk of our budget has to go on attacking players. Forget King.
I disagree, at Hyypias age he'll be the one moving to the bench soon. He himself sees his time as a regular starter as limited. Recently sami's pace, or lack of, has been exposed and i think this season Carraghers performances have carried him through the game. I think King or any other decent centre-back signing will be challenging for Hyypias place straight away
correct
