Not sure what to make of this. We have signed a number of these "experienced" defenders over the past few years (Cummings, Wilson, that Swedish bloke) and they don't seem to work out. We have also played CB in the full back positions Broadfoot, Ajayi and Ihekwi (spelling).....they never seem to work.
I feel that the full back positions are better served in this era of football with pacey, athletic figures like Tavs and Emmanuel.
