So we’re down to 2 fit centre backs and 1 who might be fit.

2? Lenglet fit and Torres as a maybe I get but are you counting in Chambers as the other?

Lenglet and Torrres don't have a right foot between them. This season is becoming a bad joke with injuries. We just don't have the squad depth to cope.

I’m counting Chambers, we don’t have a choice.

What's really bad is even most of the kids who could naturally fit in as RCB are out on loan so after Chambers the next one down looks like it's Thierry Katsukunya who has just moved from the U18s to the U21s to replace Feeney.

We do have squad depth, certainly as far ask CB’s are concerned, Konsa, Carlos, Mings, Torres and Lenglet. That’s more than enough and what’s come about due to an horrific luck with injuries can not be covered by squad depth.

and you'd normally have Kamara available as emergency cover as well.

It’s an opportunity for Chambers, who I don’t think is too bad at centre back, to prove a point. It’s bloody good that those Championship deals couldn’t be agreed.

I meant we don't have the squad depth now with all the injuries the compete..

I can't see any team in the world having the squad depth needed for our injury cursed season. Getting over the  Mings and Emi injuries was extremely difficult and very demoralising, but then to have everything else that's happened is ridiculous.

Can Hause be registered for the squad or is that out lot for the rest of the season? I presume he's not still injured, merely out of favour.

Not seen anything about his knee issues being resolved.
