We need more than 4 CBs if we're still playing a back 3.
Hopefully we'll soon put that silly idea to bed once and for all, and award ourselves that extra midfielder we need to compete.

To be honest i did not think we would get any CBs in this window, i know we may have done well over the last two Jan windows but usually there are far better options during the summer. On top of that i believe that on occasions our defenders are wary of what Lloris is doing and lack confidence in front of him.
There is no doubt (imo) that Lloris should be replaced soon and that will (hopefully) make us look more secure. That does not mean i do not think we need to bring in other CBs but as i say i think there will be more choice in the summer.
Like @DubSpur said, would need to keep one more CB, or replace with another. As much as I want Conte to go with 2 CBs, I just don't see it happening. Despite Chelsea signing half the CB prospects, there's still good players out there we can bring in to at least pad the numbers relatively cheaply, but with an eye to the future.
No evidence but i think we might have agreed a precontract with Ndicka. Pure speculation on my part though.
we shall see, as i said earlier they will be more targets in the summer window then now.
Bastoni verbally agreed for Summer according to reports if you choose to believe themOfcourse. Jan is a desperation/reactionary window in many ways. Summer is planned for.
Perisic seems to have been agreed last jan. Paratici does love a freebie. If we were not at least in talks (media reports suggest we have been) i'd be shocked. Rabiot another possibility.
Don't see the fuss about him, never impressed in the games I've seen. Played for some big teams so must have abilities.Ofcourse. Jan is a desperation/reactionary window in many ways. Summer is planned for.

Was in the summer when he turned us down, it's why we went for a loan in that area apparentlyWhen was that reported? Out of interest.
If we got that deal over the line in the summer + one of Hincapie or Ndicka along with say Pickford that would be a great window
Although would those defenders all be LCB in a 3?
He is naff IMODon't see the fuss about him, never impressed in the games I've seen. Played for some big teams so must have abilities.
He is naff IMO
Signing to be confirmed within the next half hour. Hope he’s worth the hassle that we have been through negotiating the deal.
Hope we didn't waste all that time on just this transfer.

Amazingly we haven't spent much so far compared to what the others have done. More loans and even more next transfer window as we need to pay up for last season's.
Quite sure going largely with a loan to buy payment scheme not only takes longer, but also reduces the number of sellers available.
