Out of Peltier, Richards and Manga who would be your starting right back? Richards for me personally, don’t think Peltier or Manga have the pace to cope with some of the wingers in the prem.

IMO Peltier is never good enough for the Premier League as he does not offer enough, Manga is a centre half who should only ever cover and Jazz is injury prone.
Should have been one of the first areas of the team NW looked to strengthen and I'm sure (hope) he is.

I agree with the above, based on last year we don't have a Prem league quality at the club.... Unless NW plans to teach Patterson how to defend over pre season

We need a right back, none of them are good enough as first choice.
Bournemouth away I'd start Peltier atm.

Elmohadamy from Villa ???

None at the moment. Peltier the best out of a sub Premier bunch. Hopefully new recruit soon.

Richards if he stays fit as he’s proven to be solid enough defensively and his distribution is top class. Peltier is solid as a rock as well though and he will happily kick Hazard, Salah, Son, Sanchez, Sane etc into the air to stop them. Peltier is the most streetwise full back I’ve ever seen in a City shirt, he never gets beaten, his distribution is average at best, but I trust him completely to do a job against the best Premiership wingers. I’m more than happy with that pair and as long as Richards can overcome his injury problems, I don’t think we need another right back.

Was hoping the Danny Simpson link was right

However pelts hasn’t let us down yet and he’s a solid option defensively if we don’t sign anyone

That's the one I would want as well if we sign a right back. I think it's a good opportunity with Villa's financial troubles as well.
Regrettably, if we bring another right back in, we will have to offload Peltier or Richards and because of how injury prone he is, I would sadly choose to let Richards go.

Peltier definitely!
Praying we don't sign a right-back this summer and luckily I think Warnock can see how good he is too. He's always said he couldn't get a better defensive full-back even if you gave him a few million.

Peltier to start. He's limited but what he does well (defends) he does very well.
Jazz might come good. He has got the attributes to be a top full back or wing back - but whether he can turn potential into consistent top performances the jury is out. I live in hope. I prefer 'glass half full', optimism and backing our players than the opposite that comes more naturally to some fans!

If I thought he could stay fit for any length of time I'd say he would be first choice.

Sorry to say, but if the three you have mentioned I am not so sure they could cut it in the Premier League. Manga first of all is not a RB. Warnock had to use him last season as the other two were injured. Jazz when fit and injury free is the best of the three and the only one who has pace to deal with what’s to come. Peltier is a great personality for the squad, but anyone who thinks he can cut it in the Premier League is off their rocker. He has no pace. Yes he’s the best tackler of the three, but he gets found out and gives away free kicks with his man handling. He will get found out with the step up a league and he will give away free kicks that will lead to the goals that cost us games.
Fredericks of Fulham would have been my first choice signing this summer, now I’m hopeful of someone like Simpson joining but I’m not convinced Warnock sees the hole. RB & lack of creativity in the middle if we house both Gunnar’s and Grujic (if they sign) will be our Achilles heel this season.

I agree with the entirety of what you've said, particularly the part I've highlighted.

its clear that the aim is to have our creativity come from out wide though like it was last season.
agree with the rest though, i want peltier to be successful because i like him, and hes defensively very good, but its going to be tough.
