We should have signed Coates!!!!!

LFC just got a steal, IMO by paying 8 Million Euros for Sebastian Coates. We may have solved our CB problem, but I think he wouldve been a great signing totally for backup. He's young, affordable, and about Pique's height. I guess we'll see how he far he might go.

Yeah he would be good backup, he has potential too.

Young centerback, no point when we have Fontas, Bartra and co who already dont play.

That or you can have your 2nd Caceres

We definitely didnt NEED him, it just mightve been nice to have him there, especially to those who said we did need to sign a CB. I do think Fontas and Bartra will play though, unless pep really experiments this 3-4-3.

Abidal, Busi and Mascherano will all play CB before Fontas does, so I doubt how much we will see of Fontas.

So as good as Coates might be, its pointless if Pep is going to play leftbacks and midfielders before him.

Ido get where your comimg from though, you like his quality and we could do with a centerback.

Just think we have been through this before, we should of signed Lucio, we should of signed David Luiz...we didnt do either.

yeah, he wouldve been a steal but I see what u mean. Wouldve been a good move a month or two back but patience in La Masia products is sometimes all we need for the best outcome and Pep must know this better than anyone.
