I feel that with our new signings we are now covered in most areas, but could do with one key signing. We need a right back and Alves is the best right wing back out there and would be a definite improvement in games where we want our full backs to push forward. Finnan would then be the backup and start games where we want to put more of an emphasis on defence in that position.

We have the money to bid higher than Chelsea's £14m....I think we should go for it...

1. we dont need a right back. finnan is one of the best right backs in the league
2. A left back, a back up central defender and a top class winger would be priority before a right back
3. Today he came out and said, "I want to play for Chelsea"

so all in all, Alves, while being a quality player, i doubt very much he will come here

did you watch the ufea cup final, i wouldn't pay 14 pence he was awful

yes we do need something no the right to push pennant but yossi can play out there and babel

i just wonder who the last signing will be ?

According to Manhattan's sources, Daniel Alves will sign for Chelsea tomorrow.

When asked what sealed the deal, Alves said "they were so kind to me, Roman took me out for a romantic dinner and then Peter and Jose took me on a family picnic where we ate sandwiches and played with a frisbee"

More on this story as it develops.

Thats just one game mate, all season he has terrorised La Liga defences (as well as doing a fair bit of defending himself). He's a world class player and the best in the world at his position.

We don't need a left back, we have already Aurelio and Riise who are good enough. We need another quality striker and quality center back.

striker?

we've got 5! as babel is more of a striker than a winger.

we need a left back more than we need another striker... thats why we've been linked with heinze

We do need a right back. Finnan is good but going forward we need something different. Alves is too much for us though. £12 mil would of got him last year and we didnt pay. I wouldnt mind Cicinho but the new Real boss says his keeping him.

by **Forever_Red** » Fri Jul 13, 2007 10:24 am

we need a centre back to cover agger or carragher. We don't need another striker babel can play there, I'd also like to see a winger as well, Simao hopefully

by **alxy** » Fri Jul 13, 2007 10:31 am

Finnan is OK enough at RB, and we have Arbeloa as back-up. I would agree we need a backup defender though. We seem to be OK enough in midfield. But if we get a few injuries to the defence, we might not have enough cover.

funny post this, we dont need more strikers or a left back.
And could I ask what source REDMikey has for this comment
"yes we do need something on the right to push pennant but yossi can play out there and babel"
As far as i no Babel is an unknown on the right wing and yossi cannot play their either

Majority of the games babel will be used as a left winger, thats what i think he is brought in for.

by **Ola Mr Benitez** » Fri Jul 13, 2007 11:59 am

Heinze would be the next buy for me.. en excellent left back and also vgood when playing centreback.

by **Kopite-Jud** » Fri Jul 13, 2007 12:07 pm

Alves Is A Very Good Attacking Right Back, BUT When I Have Watched Him Play IN La Liga He Fails To Track Back When He Goes Forward And Leaves A Hole On The Right Side Of The Pitch, As Good As He Is At Attacking I Would Prefer Not To Have Him.
