who are the likely BOU starting defenders now? I need to transfer out one of Zabaleta or Bennett and BOU have a load of cheap options in defence and their fixtures look great
In order of most likely when fully fit:
Ake (cb)
Cook (cb)
Adam Smith (lb/lwb)
Clyne (rb/rwb)
Daniels (lcb/lwb)/mepham (cb)
Simpson (cb)
Note that Daniels has been playing as the left side in a back three so much fewer attacking returns. FWIW I’ve transferred in Smith, will play left wing or left wing back and gets down the wing. Bit of a card risk but also potential attacking returns. He’s looked great since returning from injury.
We tend to play a back 5 against the stronger team and away from home, back 4 against the lesser teams so more likely to be back four at the moment. I think mepham will continue to come in for cook (supposedly out another 5-6 weeks)
