Played one and a half games at the World Cup, England didn't concede while he was on the pitch.
While he was not on the pitch England played two and a half games and conceded FIVE goals - go figure
He is still a good defender, exposed by pace but who isn't. Perhaps therein lies the problem with having the wanderer who can't defend on the right side of defence, no protection whatsoever. Despite our terrible season we only conceded 35 goals, it was scoring that was our problem and therefore you might suggest the full-back we signed didn't improve on our attack but certainly contributed towards our weakened defence.

Carra
Agger
The Greek
Skrtel
I'd like to see how Skrtel does with a sustained run in the team but he was poor last season.

It's Skrtel and Agger for me, unless we get a top class replacement.

It might be that we are just going to have to learn to accept it and live with it, and perhaps play a bit more attacking simply because we will be better going forwards than backwards this season. Long as you play to your strengths it's not always a bad thing.

he's usefull on a 15 game a season job but as a first teamer week in week out, hes past that now. slowed up and lost more than half a yard.
carragher gives away more fouls than skrtel, he's clumbsy now. skrtel and agger are stronger and quicker now. and much better in the air.
