Yeah but Brazillian and defending don't go in the same sentence together...Roberto Carlos being a prime example...No Roberto...you need to be in our half to defend...not theirs...Que? haha :D

No. But I must be the only one that doesn't rate Lahm in the true LB position.

I like lahm..i like krauts uwe ,didi,maurizio, burt. Their grandads bombed oldtrafford..:D
My mrs is a kraut. ja ja.

Seriously though. i rate lahm he's a decent player who looks like he could get better in time..
We could do worse..
But we need someone whos good under pressure, defending as well as flying forwards..

Frankly, with all our new-found firepower and creativity up front, I'd settle for a simple, dependable defensive player, who can just be counted on to anchor our wall back there.

Of course if he can chip in on the the counter attack from time to time, that would be fine too.

I like Bridge when he plays, but the fact that he's been content to sit on his arse for huge money all this time, and even sign a new contract, doesn't exactly suggest an ambitious player.

My main issue with Lahm is even though no doubting he is a great left back. I think i am right in thinking he is right footed and switches back to cross.


I know I am considering him in the attacking part of his role and the defensive side is more important. I would prefer Bridge
