Like most on here I agree with the need to upgrade the RB position. I’ve seen lots of names mentioned who may be of interest, but I don’t see any of them being better than one individual already in the squad, who has played many times in that position and always excels.
That player is Jimmy Garner.
Of course this leaves a massive hole in our midfield, but perhaps spending the transfer budget on an international level CM may be the answer.
Thoughts?
{Ed025's Note - i get what you are saying Djs and he does very well there, but i imagine it would be cheaper to bring in a RB than a quality midfielder mate..

Wouldn't disagree with that Ed, but I wouldn't mind us blowing £50m on a quality CM, rather than any of the unproven RB names I've seen mentioned. especially as Jimmy immediately gives us a massive upgrade in that position.
{Ed025's Note - he does Djs, but i dont know if jimmy would be happy with that mate?..

Took the words out of my mouth Ed. He would move on to go play midfield sooner or later. He wants England.
{Ed025's Note - and who could blame him BN, players want to play at the highest level they can and im sure Jimmy would have a lot of suitors mate..

Jimmy's quickest route into the England team is at RB. He's better than the current incumbent, Reece James, whereas in CM there is much more competition. In my opinion, of course.
Thanks for your 5houghts.

Patterson has done well at rb for Scotland this tournament. Not his fault, Scotland are crap.
