So maybe Milner will move to RB this coming season or TAA be given a shot.

Sorry but Clyne is a bang average player. It was the same case with Skrtel who had no competition for his place when Carragher retired. Skrtel overstayed his welcome and so has Clyne.

Still cannot understand why there has been no urgency to sign quality fullbacks!

I can't remember the last time I've seen a player drop in performancesas much as Clyne has since he joined. He was decent enough on the ball when he arrived first, but gradually he stopped doing literally anything with it. And considering how much our fullbacks have the ball, that's a big problem.

You could predict what he'd do every time he got the ball towards the end of last season, because every time it would be the same: Take a touch, put his foot on it, hesitate and look around, and then eventually pass it backwards or maybe 5 yards infield if one of the midfielders had gone towards him. No crosses, never would carry the ball into space if it was available, would never try an early ball into the channel, wouldn't try a one-two to keep momentum going. Just slow down the play and a nice safe, easy pass every time.

I'd happily start Milner, TAA or Flanno ahead of him.

I don't care what happens with Clyne I don't really think he is a world beater, but I don't think he is as bad as some people make him out to be.

Milner did well last season but he shouldn't play RB next season.

He's getting the Glen Johnson treatment. ie. If he doesn't score or get an assist he had a bad game. Personally feel it is going to be a bit before Arnold can take his spot in the side and Milner should go again at left back unless we bring in Robertson (and even then I'd start the season with milney)

{Ed001's Note - Glen Johnson treatment? What is that when it is at home? No one is suggesting Clyne is lazy and can't be arsed to break sweat, like Johnson. Obviously you fail to understand what people are talking about, so made up some nonsense in your head.}
