Yeah, we are farily well reinforced with Salva and Marchetti who are developing nicely. I'm not sure about Cahais yet. Schmidt is gold on the left side, but he has horrible natural fitness. So, Ideally I need a backup left back within the next year or two for when O'Shea and Chivu can't do it anymore. I also need a starting quality right fullback as I don't think Brown and Grygera are going to be able to get it done for much longer.
Also, we are showing a bit of age in the midfield with Djemba and Fletcher but they are still performing at a high level. However, we have good reinforcements there. I'd say a backup left back and a starting right back are the only semi-immediate needs and anything else will be gravy.
