Realist Guy In The Room Posted 7 August 2017 Share Posted 7 August 2017 I dont dispute that Smalling is an upgrade on Wes. I just doubt whether Shakey would change both centre backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Terry was a legend at Chelsea but sat on the bench his last year. Football is an unsentimental business and winning is all that counts.

John Terry was a legend at Chelsea but sat on the bench his last year. Football is an unsentimental business and winning is all that counts. I agree completely. It'd be great to field all of our favourite players, however in the position we're in (and Shakey in particular), one bad season could make or break us. We need to consolidate and move forward, otherwise we risk stagnating in mid-table or worse. We can still attract some talent and we need to do it at present as the opportunity may not always be there. It'll be frustrating for Wes and Huth should they struggle to get game time but they're the kind of people who will still nurture our future players and keep people in line. They're leaders and professionals, I can only imagine they would want the best for the club so long as they are still sitting pretty on large contracts close to the last couple of years where they can still earn big money.

There are some of the best strikers in the world playing in the EPL and they will enjoy playing against aging and slow CB's.. Wes has been brilliant for us, but we really must add more pace and mobility in this area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyN83 Posted 8 August 2017 Share Posted 8 August 2017 I know there's been rumours but can't see him leaving United for some reason, think Jones is more likely to go If either.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clear to see Mourinho doesn't see him as a big part of his plans and if Jones continues to play for United and performs, Smallings England place could be under threat for the World Cup. How great would Maguire and Smalling be..... They would be a massive improvement on Morgan and Huth, and a pairing that could be together for many years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
