McNaughton was poor last year and Taylor was not much better surely Malky can see that ???

McNaughton is the best full-back in the division!
Everyone's obsessed with getting the perfect modern full-back these days, like Maicon, that can attack better than the winger but can't defend to save their life.
We should count ourselves lucky we have a full-back that gives 100% and never EVER gets beaten/taken on down his side. I can count the number of goals that have come down McNaughton's side since he's been at the club on one hand probably.

Malky will sign a righ back for sure, he has already tried, I will back his judgement thanks....

That's a good point about keeper, after a right back, keeper then third weakest left back IMO....
Don't get me wrong they are all ok, but weaker than players in all other positions....

What's wrong with Marshall?![]()
Sure his kicking can be dodgy at times and he doesn't dominate his area aswell as he should for a man his size but his shot stopping is op class for a championship keeper.
It would cost millions to sign a batter keeper than him or Lewis and it would cause no end of bad feeling amongst the keepers if we have four vying for a starting place.
Full back is a position that should be miles higher on the list that Keeper. Keeper would be second last behind central midfielder for me!

Marshall one of the best shot stoppers in the league - international keeper.
Lewis One of the most highly rated young keepers in the league - U21's International keeper.
Cover keeper Parish from premiership reserves.
Hardly a weak position.....?
I'd say we are light at decent cover for Full backs.

Taylor isn't the best LB either. He got caught out plenty of times and got left too far forward on occasions too leaving a big hole down the wing. But, once again that will be fixed this season - but the FB's need some competition.

Marshall isn't really an international keeper is he? Joe Lewis hasn't played for U21's for two seasons and Parish is totally unknown.

I think we are all assuming Bellamy is a done deal and Kim Bo will be class, so that has been sorted and improved...
