    Our Pozzo disadvantage is that we will forever be linked with Italian journeymen.

    Alfredo, welcome!


    Or Adam.

    Who’s keeping score here, esp after Dowling’s departure?

    Wonderful. The first left back to be linked with us this summer. Things are looking up.

    Looks a decent shout on paper. Tall aggressive left back, Serie B player of the year a couple of years ago and then two good seasons in Serie A. In his prime at 24 rather than a prospect or an old timer. Italy U21 and other big clubs interested. Lots of positives.

    Quick look at his YouTube compilation. He's like a giant version of Holebas

    1 year left on his contract too so his value is probably not as high as Bologna might like.

    This guy is actually class. If we get him for around £10m, as quoted, it would be quite a coup. Seems like this one has some truth behind it, so fingers crossed this actually happens.

    Started off life as a striker, so maybe he’s the answer to our search for that illusive away goal too!

    Has a fairly decent record avoiding injury, which could be another plus.

    There is nothing much wrong with Jose Holebas other than he is Jose Holebas, if you see what I mean.

    You have without a doubt just cursed him to sign for us, score an own goal in our first away game, then break both legs and never play for us again.

    When's the last time we had a new left back? Nathan Ake? Being an ex left back I'd love us to have this fella, he looks quality.

    This guy is between 6.2 and 6.3!

    Correct me if I’m wrong, as it’s your old playing position, but that’s very tall for a fullback rather than a central defender yes?

    Based upon absolutely nothing as I've never heard of him, he will be better than holebas, zeegelaar or Britos.

    At this point I feel like I would welcome Paul Mayo back with open arms

    Lots of advantages with tall full backs. Less likely to get outjumped when Burnley go three up top against us and target the simple ball to the back post.
