Rafael

is close to returning. this is great news and hopefully will be back at RB
smalling and jones are good at RB but rafa is far more suited and better at RB

I still have my doubts about both twins, they can be great but can also be a liability !

However it's good he's back and hopefully he can continue from last season.

rafael is not really a liability he is very good and has a good physical presence

I said he can be, he is very rash sometimes. But yes he is getting better

The twins offer much more going foward then either Jones or Smalling. However, I do agree that sometimes they can be a bit rash in a tackle and pick up silly yellow card.

Annoying tho that both r quite injury prone

Sometimes Fabio seems to want to leave the pitch, he sometimes looks like he has had enough.

To be honest I think Valencia is awesome at right back, I hate seeing him on the bench but Nani and Young have been in great form so far.

No he doesn't. What are you talking about?

i think valencia is a good option for right back. he doesnt have the 2 footedness or trickery to be an outright winger and he is being found out at the moment by being shown on the inside. however he has good attributes for right back, quick, strong, can deliver the odd good cross when given a bit of space.

i think RB shud be rafaels and valencias, LB evra and fabio, with vidic and smalling CB back up jones and evans (think Ferdinand has had it tbh). and next year we concentrate on finding a central midfield partner for Cleverley.

i think fabio can be a bit rash but rafael (or so we're led to believe is rafael) is far more composed, quality player. Can remember last season a certain mr bale was kept very quiet against raf when all the papers were raving about him.
