Despite his past I could see Curtis Davies as a replacement for one of them and partner him up with Evans. There aren't many CBs that are any good in our price range. The least we can do is buy one that can run and not make stupid decisions to leave the top English marksman free in the box. I was stunned by Gmac's performance on Saturday.
Yeh, as much as I like and admire GMac, I agree; he's becoming more fallible in his decision making, and his lack of pace means that our back 4 have to sit so deep.
Also agree about Curtis Davies, as much as it pains me to.
I've never understood why a top CB is only worth around 25% of a striker in the market! A dominant, fast CB that can organise the whole defence and play the ball out when appropriate is, in my book, the most valuable asset in a team!
