It seems he's actually a CB? on 17:37 - Sep 22 with 4157 views | StokieBlue | He played CB against us two weeks ago. He was good and strong but not sure why we have signed another CB - there must be more to it which I am sure will be announced soon. SB | |

Just guessing but maybe KVY out for a while and Chambo now long term RB or Woolfenden out long term or being sold. | | | |

Agreed. He was excellent against us and very composed on the ball too. But it’s odd given numbers at the back aren’t an issue. I’m not sure what I’m more worried about-that he’s a replacement for Woolfenden or that he’s a replacement for nobody and we’re overloading and muddling the squad again. | |

right-footed so I wonder if he could cover at RB? | | | |
It seems he's actually a CB? on 17:49 - Sep 22 with 4043 views | Darth_Koont | Forgot to say, I think he could easily play LB too. | |

It seems he's actually a CB? on 17:51 - Sep 22 with 4023 views | Herbivore | This is a bit of an odd one. We've got Chambo, Woolfy, Toto, and Wilson as senior CBs and then Ndaba seeming to have played his way into the first team picture as well. Maybe Ndaba is going out on loan but even so I'm struggling to make sense of this one a bit. Hoping Lambert doesn't piss about with going three at the back to fit players in. | |

It seems he's actually a CB? on 17:53 - Sep 22 with 4008 views | LeightonBuzzardBlue | My first assumption was that this signing is to allow Chambo to stay out at RB and that KVY is out for longer than expected rather than it being Woolfy related Could easily be wrong though | | | |

Do you actually think those 4 are enough to get us promoted ? Really bizarre reaction to what looks like a great signing. | | | |

I know - people have been saying for weeks that our defence needs shoring up - then as soon as we sign a strong young defender from Arsenal, who's impressed most who've seen him, we get carping and worrying about injuries! | |

The Gunners have very high hopes for McGuinness. He's comfortable on the ball and has a fierce will to win. This loan move will be perfect for both parties. | | | |

Lambert pissing about is probably a given. I suppose he has got to rotate though given that Chambo and Ward have a combined age of 179. All depends on the injuries to KVY and WOolf - maybe things are worse that we know. Or maybe there has been some interest in Woolf. Who knows - we've been short of quality def info for a while | |

Yes, they should be enough. Defence wasn't really our problem last season and when everyone is fit which two do you play? You say he's a great signing and I hope you're right but he's played two games of senior football for Arsenal under 21s so it's not nailed on that he will be. | |

It's looking like one of KVY or Wolfys injuries are perhaps longer term | |

"when everyone is fit" - we'll be in dream land. | |

For virtually all of last season Chambers, Woolf, Wilson and Nsiala were fit. We were even able to let Nsiala go out on loan. CB just doesn't strike me as a priority area for us. | |

We'll await news on that front but if it's KVY wouldn't a right back have been a better option? | |

This is Ipswich - it felt like KVY was the first right back we signed since David Wright. Playing centre backs out there is our speciality. | |

It seems he's actually a CB? on 18:39 - Sep 22 with 3781 views | Garv | - Won't count towards the cap. - Shouldn't be a stranger to football being played on the floor. - Nsiala and Wilson still with a lot to prove. - Woolfenden currently injured. - Chambers getting on and having to cover KVY anyway. I don't see anything here to get upset about. | |

It seems he's actually a CB? on 18:52 - Sep 22 with 3746 views | IpswichBoyBlue | Good signing that. Arsenal would have insisted on a certain amount of game time I would imagine. Woolfy likely to be out for a while, so we needed a quality signing and that is what we have. | | | |

To be fair, a few weeks ago we were all saying that's a weak area. I'd agree now though. I'd rather a centre forward. Decent pedigree this lad though, so shouldn't grumble. | |

Don't think anyone is getting upset but a few are wondering why we need 5 first team centre halfs unless there is something suggesting that either KVY or Woolfy or both are not going to be around for a while. | | | |

What?! We let in sloppy goal after sloppy goal. Defence was as much as a problem as any other position on the pitch. Needed attention desperately However, as you are never wrong it’s probably a waste of time even replying to you | |
