Toby Alderweireld

Wonder where he would play if true??? Seems too short for a central defender...
1.87 meter, that isn't exactly short. He is decent enough in the air. He would play CB for us. He usually plays RB for Belgium due to them not having good full-backs, but CB is definately his best position.
 
I wonder would his arrival mean a departure for someone else or are we going for 5 CBs on the roster?
 
Not to knock your assessment but he alongside Fonte at CB was a big part of Southampton keeping the sort of defensive record they did.

Anyways, after signing Wimmer this summer and Dier and Fazio last summer, I can't see the sense in us signing another CB unless we are selling Fazio or Vertonghen. I agree that Wimmer won't be a regular starter this year, but he should still get games in the midweek fixtures whilst Dier fights it out with Fazio to partner Jan in the league.
 
Very good player who I have always wanted here, he has played alongside Jan at Ajax and for their country.
