Enjoining agressivity
I see that Everton are on the brink of signing a new £30M striker. 6 foot 4 player. (Ignoring FFP)
I do worry having conceded 4 headed goals already this season that we are not addressing this obvious glaring defensive weakness. We have 2/3 small centre backs (1 of which is very small by PL centre back standards). None outstanding in the air.
I heard loads of supporters saying things today like 'if we play like that we will beat Everton' outside the ground after the game.
No we won't if we can't defend headers properly.
Presume we are waiting for an injury at CB before we try the most expensive defender in the clubs history?
Thoughts?!
Seems a very obvious blind spot in the current management teams thinking.
Get a big, physical CB in there. Otherwise we are going to get bullied next week and throughout the season.
