Pretty clear If you cannot pass a ball at pace all day every day with a purpose then your done at Peps City, Keeper sweeper and CB's who play out are the only way we are going to play, we do not have one defender who can do it if we are being honest. Hence Ferna and Stones, where this leaves Otter and Mango is the clubs problem, Poor Mango sorry rich Mango..

Good - cocky cunt did my head in over the season - Pep wants a sweeper so I reckon "head n shoulders" is on borrowed time.

cant even go for Neur ( however you spell that Bayern keeper) as he is doing head and shoulders now isn't he?

Neur will never leave BM ,hes at the top of his game and plays for one of the best teams in the world........... so I think we can forget about getting him onboard - unfortunately.
Pep will either want Hart to adapt to the way he wants him to play (I personally think Pep will persevere with Hart for this season to see if he can adapt) or we will see him on the bench more often than not.

As for Joe being cocky......he's got fuck all on Neur.

I think when we keep trying to use traditional ways of looking at positions with the way Pep seems to operate I think we find ourselves not really knowing what we are talking about.
Fernandinho may play some CB against certain teams or situations. I think that he will mostly still play as a centre midfielder though, and I do think we could slot some other players around that area that you listed.
We may even sign someone else. Summer isn't over yet.

Certainly suggestive that Stones is offski.

Kone yes but Williams is s strange signing, just for the age. Maybe this unlimited money the Mersey Millionaires have rediscovered is not quite all that?

Williams for 12M is a very good signing imho. Does what it says on the tin. Relishes the job of defending...what 9/10 teams want tbh.
Why no one else would go for him is simply his age. However with Arsenal hurting for CBs it's moronic that they wouldn't snap him up at that price. I'm glad they haven't.
cheers
