we had three months to get a leftback--we signed none!--there is no excuse!--we will get hammered on the leftside against villareal and manchester celtic--what happened to having one of the best scouting departments?--only player we signed this summer who a scout was probably used was crosas--unacceptable!

We have Wilson (who looks to be doing alright so far), Robson who played LB at points w/ Dundee Utd, and O'Dea who has played there in the CL. It is true that we need a better LB, but we can get the round of 16 and then get a LB in January.
And what's with you hyping up Villa?? I agree they're a good side, but they are inexperience and they overachieved last year.
In 2006/07 they came in 5th, in 2005/2006 they came in 7th, in 2004/05 they came in 3rd, in 2003/04 they came in 8th, and in 2002/03 they came in 15th. Basically they are a Uefa Cup team who overachieved when Barca had a bad year. We'll see if they can come in the top 3 again.

Agree that we're not solid at LB, but christ it's Villareal not Real Madrid...

i think we're looking at villareal like we did at copenhagen a year ago and we all know how that went

we do need another LB, theres no denying that. wilson by his own right isnt terrible but i dont trust him on the side, same with odea, and robson is simply not an acceptable option at LB

Okay. Villa and Aalborg are not these great underdog, champions. We have the experience in CL and is facing Danish and Spanish teams. No one is overlooking these teams, but they are not some godly force.
