Robert said this about Verm today.
Vermaelen
“Es un buen jugador que, desgraciadamente, ha tenido muchas lesiones, en ese sentido no es fiable. Hablé con él y le dije que había que darle una oportunidad. Hay tiempo. Es una situación peligrosa si nos quedamos con tres centrales, podíamos asumir esta responsabilidad. Hay un marco de un central para fichar un central”.
Using google translator (Sorry).
"He is a good player who, unfortunately, has had many injuries, in that sense is not reliable. I talked to him and told him to give it a try. There's time. It is a dangerous situation if we stay with three plants, we could assume this responsibility. There is a framework of a central to sign a central ".
