I'd rather pay 20mill. for a proven left back than 18mill for the shite we had playing today.

On another matter,having spent millions why do we still have Jo on the bench or anywhere near the club.

Exactly my thoughts. Bridge plays 1 decent game for West Ham and everybody forgets how terrible he was all of last season.
Disagree on Garrido though. I think as a defender he's much better than Kolorov for sure.

Bridge was the pick of a well-drilled defence yesterday, that let Spurs have the majority of the ball, but prevented them from either reaching the bye-line, or from shooting too regularly from the danger area inside the box.

Bridge has steadily improved the longer he has played for us, but I still have the suspicion that he's better taking the ball forward, than defending in any 'last ditch' sense.

Wonder whether we'll try to buy him if we stay up. His wages are a likely sticking point.

There is a cheaper option. Gibbs from Arsenal. He will be no. 2 to Clichy for years to come, so I bet he would be willing to move. He's still young and can only improve with more experience as opposed to AK who's set in his ways and will never make it in the PL.

Kolarov is gash but there's no way Bridge is much better (though he is better).

Hope Pab Zab's father recovers quickly. We need him to play the LB slot for the rest of the season failing that Lescott to switch over.

The LB is not helped by 1mph Barry playing in front of them.

Bridge was shocking for us, even more of a defensive liability than Kolarov.I hated the way teams always attacked down Bridges side as they new he would choke.Kolarov marginally better as he has a decent left foot.

Who Barry?

Barry is an absolute passenger and has been for years. Amazed it's not been picked up on. I forgot he was playing until the 30 minute mark

I'd mAke you right about the money,we're throwing it around like monopoly money at least we've all seen him play and know what he can/can't do.
There's a lot of can't do's when talking about kolorov and bridge.how about trying a WORLD CUP semi finalist in that position?

Kolarov is without any shadow of a doubt, the worst player I have ever seen play for Manchester City in over 15 years. I thought Edgehill had got bad, but he has nothing on this guy.

Add to that £16m and I am completely fucking speechless.

Choosing between Bridge and Kolarov for the left back slot is akin to being stabbed in the eye with a skewer. Metal or wooden it's still fuckin painful!
