There's been a ton of complaining of late about the clubs necessity to bring in a left back and centre half so I thought I would pose a question. If the club can only sign one position or the other, which position would you make a signing at? For me i'd rather have a left back because I'm not sold on ivanovic at right back and feel that moving Dave over there would help him provide more in attack. I also think we have far less depth out wide as Zouma should be back before November and Ivanovic is far more suited to centrehalf. What do you guys think?

I'd rather see a left back come in too. Rahman was apparently loaned out due to the fact he was too attacking, taking that into consideration I can't imagine Conte plans on moving, from the back four, to wing backs.
Terry, Cahill, Zouma and Ivanovic can all do a job at CB, as I'm sure could Clarke-Salter, but I also don't trust Ivanovic at RB. I'm glad to see Aina sticking around and his ability to play on either flank is brilliant but a new LB is our biggest need.

Have to agree with Tk. A left back. Rahman was a weak defender and never got back quick enough when he attacked; although he could put a decent cross over. Ivanovic is a liability at right back nowadays but can still do a job in the centre whilst we wait for Zouma or someone coming in.
