I'm not Bertrand's biggest fan. Would like to see us aim higher especially as he's soon to be 25 and don't think he'll get much better than he already is. However, he could be our Finnan who for me didn't have any outstanding attributes but he was reliable, solid and consistent. Bertrand is pretty much the same. Also the more I think about it the less convinced I am that spunking £20m on Moreno who is defensively suspect is a wise thing to do. Perhaps spending £8m on Bertrand will save us money to spunk it on a top draw midfielder.

Moreno is only 20 and though he has been dodgy at times he is a highly promising fullback and has the potential to be a very good player.
Bertrand on other hand, is very limited in terms of abilities, average at best and not much better if at all than Jose and Flanno, who can slot there nicely.
Personally if the choice is between buying Bertrand or not buying anyone I wouldn't buy anyone.Member #1 of the Luis Suarez fan club

If it was a choice between buying Bertrand for £8m or Moreno for £20m (Seville are showing no signs of budging) I would choose the former mate. Bertrand is not like the modern day full back that love to attack but he is solid and reliable. He was also very good against Sterling in the 2-2 draw at Anfield.

I haven't seen anything in Bertrand's game to make me feel encouraged about our interest.

I understand mate. Like I said I'd prefer us to aim higher because I'm not his biggest fan but I do think he could do a solid job for us.Originally posted by Mostar View PostTypo but yeah

I wonder if we have any interest in Jetro Willems. Should be back from his injury now

Don't really see Bertrand as an improvement on Enrique at all. or Flanagan of that matter. Very few options available at LB unfortunately. IMO we will pay the extra for Moreno.
Trying to rack my brains to think of any other potentials. Only other ones apart from Moreno & Bertrand i can think of would be:
- Rodreguez (Not going to happen)
- Coentrao (Not going to happen)
- Daley Blind
- Jetro Willems
- Schmelzer
- Siqueira
- Criscito
