I am not doubting either of these statements, in fact I agree wholeheartedly.What I was trying to get across was, whilst this is probably a good signing for both the player and both clubs involved, the fact remains that as many have said before, we are short of a couple of experienced defenders.
I am sure Coley has one or two irons in the fire with regards to signing some defensive cover, but the defender issue is causing much concern to many. In the long term, solving this issue may hold the key to our season.
