Really good piece on 'Ector by Tim Stillman

Will be a fascinating battle between him and Debuchy next season. The youngster really hasn't done a lot wrong so in my view should start as first choice.

Probably the best young player we've had come through since Wheelchair. He really saved our bacon last season when we were struggling for stability at the back with all the injuries.

Debuchy has been unfortunate but Bellerin should be classed as first choice. He's earned it.

I have been impressed with Bellerin, he was a bit ropey to start with but he really did improve as the season when on. It is hard luck on Debuchy but Bellerin should be treated as the imcumbent and unless he gets injured or looses form then should be first choice. Surely that's the idea of competition for places.

It's not even close. Debuchy at his absolute best still won't be as good as Bellerin. Just doesn't have the talent. Would also expect Bellerin to gain confidence and be a bit like Bale now. He can get past players easily. Gives us a completely new option which RBs usually don't. Wouldn't swap him for any RB, he's going to be incredible. Barca player by 24.

Oh yeah, forgot about the Barca DNA. :sick:

Listening to Arseblog at work, they are being asked what their favourite away kits and most hated away kits are.

The Irish fella basically said he's not a fan of any non yellow away kit, which is diametrically opposed to my own view because I despise the yellow away kits (hate yellow as a colour)

I prefer the blue or navy kits, really liked our third kit last season, my favourite though would be the gold kit from 01/02...adored that strip.

That game against United worried me though, no fullback should let Ashley Young mess them around like that. And then there's other things like that penalty against Liverpool. I think he should do what Gibbs and Monreal did and focus on getting the defensive side down. The attacking side will come naturally for him, but he'll need to put in a lot of work in to learn how to defend. If he does that he'll be an absolute beast. But until then there's a case for starting Debuchy against the big teams IMO

well i'm not overly keen on the idea of established first choice team players, if you have two players for a posiition...you rotate the squad depending on which player brings what to the table depending on who you are playing.

Claudio Ranieri is the new Leicester manager.
