Isnt it the rule that all players need to be registered by this time if they are to play on Saturday against Norwich?

So unless anything happens tonight or 2moro morning, it will be CBs from the same squad??

That is correct.

[hoops1969]

centre backs

That is correct.

we knew what our defence was like' why wait till now

[ArcticHoop]

new signings or not i doubt that we see same defence as last game. If we can't make any signings on time to play at Norwich Bosingwa and Nelsen has to start

[pblockranger]

No bosingwa will play at cb with Anton

[hoops1969]

center backs

No bosingwa will play at cb with Anton

anton was just as bad has hill

[QPR1976]

And Connolly's no longer an option.....

[brightonr]

Maybe it isn't a case of us waiting. Maybe we have been trying and the other parties,(current club and player), have mistakenly thought that we will pay whatever they ask. Or maybe, the targets didn't want to join us. We should remember that they do have the choice.

But apart from that, I agree.

If Bosingwa, Nelsen and Traore (providing he is fit) play, it's not really the same defense. Also is Luke Young still around?

Also if anybody does sign tomorrow, I doubt if they will play Saturday.

Obviously I dont know this, but I highly doubt he will play there, hes not a CB. He was a makeshift Cb for literally 1 or 2 games for Chelski, thats it. He is a RB and I should imagine thats exactly where he'll play tomorrow, with Nelson & Anton CB and either Traore of Fabio LB.

Personally, wouldnt mind a back 4 of Bosingwa Nelson Anton Traore, although still doesnt fill me with confidence - surely cant be any worse than the shambles that was seen vs Swansea?!

[w12dave]

if we do sign anyone in time to be registered by 12pm i don't think they will be playing any part tomorrow without having any training sessions

Ive decided Anton is the root of the problem, if somebody could pass this on to Mark Hughes id be grateful.

I'm sure he'll immediately act on your immense knowledge.
Seriously though...hill was no better, why not dig him out too? Or Onuoha?

[Ginger Ninja]

IMO the defence will look like this:

Bosingwa Ferdinand Onuoha Fabio

Youre not allowed mate. Anton = fits scapegoat category. Hill doesnt.
