Welcome Otamendi!
arguably? i'm not exactly sure how he doesn't become a first choice CB an Argie intl who's won accolades in Spain and the Copa as one of the best defenders around.
My guess is that the first cunt to flinch between Vinnie and ze Mangler gets fucking wacked. HOWEVER, this new dude is right footed, no?
It's a bit confusing tbh. I'm very excited to have seemingly pseudo-world class coverage in defense. Amazing, but what does it mean for Vincent?
I'd suggest for now that we've got 2 sets of awesome defenders...Vincent and Mangler and then Otamendi and Denayer.
Can Otamendi play DM? Can Mangler play LB? Can Denayer play LB? And the Artist formerly known as Ponytail will prollee just feast on scraps through injuries or suspensions or form issues and be a pro. Fairly powerful story if it works out.
i hope that this sudden versatility doesn't allow us to fuck up the start of something good by overthinking shit. I'm looking at you Prince of Darkness.
cheers
I see it exactly like this.
If Vinny fucks up or Mangala has a wobble, boom the bearded warrior walks into the team and we don't have to suffer Boyata or Savic as back up.
Shudders.
Or - we might not fuck up so much in the FA and league cups!
