So according to Barcastuff, Alves is going to wear number 22 in honor of Eric Abidal. Looks like Montoya will get the number 2 shirt after all. arty1:
Edit: Their source is MD, so might not be true.
I have to agree, Alba is our future when it comes
To attacking fb. Id also sell Alves for 25mil an use it on a boss defensive RB...we need to bring balance to our defense again...a WC cb and def RB will do that.
Because you should watch some games of the last season.We need to have only one attacking minded fullback and comparing with what Alba has produced going forward with Alves its clear who needs to be out of the line up and its Alves.He brings nothing better than Alba going forward and the only thing he does is making horrible crosses with no purpose.Not to mention the fact that he is useless defending,Alba may be not so better but atleast he has the speed to cover and because of his age and perfomances he has to stay.If we wanna have a stable defence we need to do what we did with Abidal.WHY THAT if we spend 70/90 minutes in the opposition half. Plus two stable defenders plus effective pressing should be enough.
Dani taking the number 22 shirt and the number 2 going to Montoya !If what's true?
