Although Tang En had told Sun Jihai over the phone that the team was going to play on a rotation, his first choice of candidate for the right back would still be Chimbonda when the new season began. Buying Sun Jihai was to increase the depth of the team, not create problems for Tang En when deciding on his deployment and strategies.
The reformation of the defensive line had yet to end. Left back had Sun Jihai and Chimbonda rotating; Center back had Piqué, Matthew Upson, Pepe, Wes Morgan, and Clint Hill. Many options. But left back still only had Leighton Baines.
It was difficult to find a left back on the transfer market and even harder to find an outstanding one.
The good mood brought about by Sun Jihai joining the team lasted only a day. Tang En began to fret over the rotation candidate for the left back.
Dunn knew what Tang En was worrying about. Over dinner, he intended to recommend someone to Tang En.
