Zouma is the latest central defender being linked with us, ffs we don't even need one, a full back and a right winger are much more of a priority.

Heard a quite a few people say a CB isn't even a priority, so why do you think Jose is intent on getting one?

I guess he really trusts Young and Valencia to do a job, with Shaw and Dalot being their understudies for the season. Who plays right wing currently, Lingard?

He spent £30m+ on Bailly and Lindelof and won't even play them now, besides we still have Jones, Smalling and Rojo who are perfectly good back up options.

Dalot is young and injured until September so can't really count on him to walk into the first team, both Valencia and Young are converted wingers rather than actual full backs, both are also 30 years old +, Shaw is a difficult one, Jose doesn't seem to trust him.

We need someone with pace who can cross the ball and stretch the opposition defence, Mata lacks pace and likes to cut inside while Lingard has great work ethics and is a great squad option, but not really a starting eleven player for a club aiming to win titles.

The potential is there but to reach max is hard.
City
Spurs
Liverpool
United

I think this Will be top 4

Doubt any manager could complete with Guardiola's City in the league.

Looks like we've not signed anyone which I'm happy enough with.

Can't really buy half a team every season, it's time Jose works with who he has, who are easily good enough to compete.

real reason jose is hunting for a reliable CB who is also dominant in the air must be his concerns about defending set pieces.
Remember how company scored a corner in the derby where he was literally the only blue shirt inside the box.
that said i think we already have enough players who are good in the air. just cut out the individual mistakes.

Captain Pogba b)

If this team can't beat Leicester than even Jesus in the central defence wouldn't help us.
