Pace, did well on collecting the attack when it came his way, and showed some real capacity to get forward on occasion. He might not be quite ready to step up to first team action, but I was encouraged by what I saw this past summer. I think we might be forced into planting Sylvestre at the back and giving him strick instructions NOT to advance past midfield under any circumstances...even on corners. I do not want him having to hoof it down field to recover on a long pass into our third. Maybe we can tether him to Almunia or something? haha While I agree with your assessment, jammathon, I thought Traore looked quite good in the preseason matches he played in.

For Sunderland, I'd go with Traore, and for Chelsea, it'd be Silvestre. Depends who the opponents are for me. For Sunderland, I’d go with Traore, and for Chelsea, it’d be Silvestre.
