Lescott would be in at left back, where I think Bridge is a problem. Having said that, he was a lot better on Saturday at Blackburn.

He is hopelessly weak in the air, but more worryingly, never actually seems to stop anybody by tackling or intercepting passes. Like I say though I thought he was much improved v Blackburn. I hope I'm wrong and he has a great season, but he troubles me.

You're right...he was much improved at Blackburn...and personally I think he is improving all the time...What you have to remember is that he played understudy to Cashley for a long time so when he came to City he was very much match rusty...I think he has taken this long to get into the swing of things and I genuinely expect him to do great for us this term.

Komps is Belgiums first choice cb. He is big, fast, tall, strong, experienced for his age and canny.
Toure has class.
Those two can be our first choice cb pairing. Then Neds, Dunney, TBH, Barry, the youth lads can all back up and mix and match.
So that would give us Zabs and Bridge, quality full backs. Then a new first choice centre back pairing, both quality players, problem solved.
Lescott isnt needed, if he does come, great, he will improve the squad, if he doesnt then its no big deal.
