I don't think their backline will be weak anymore... Jerome
Boateng is actually very good and he can play anywhere at the back
4 positions... Left, Right and Centre. I just wondered how
come no other clubs spoted him earlier and they were lucky they
bought him before the WC... Cos he really came rather cheap at
$10.5m only...
Yaya Toure is another one if needed can slot in to the
centre-back position without any problems... And with this
Aleksandar Kolarov now taking over their problem left
side, They might improve by a lot... And also the likes of
Lescott, Richards, Kolo Toure might
improve during this times as well in order to get into the first
team... In short, they are spoilt for choice...
agree, they are buying quality and it is only time b4 they
gel.
and once then, it will be difficult to stop them.
football these days are measured by strength of team, managers
and importantly, their finances.
