There used to be such a thing as utility players, these were players who were very good in one position, but pretty useful too in other roles.
Take Dave Mackay for instance, he has played for Spurs in midfield & as a stand in centre half. Paul Madeley at Leeds could play anywhere and look at home, in fact the only position he never played at Leeds was goalkeeper!
If you had two or three of this type of player then you could cover virtually any eventuality. In our current squad the most versatile players in my opinion are Bale, Verthongen, Thudd (although too slow in midfield) Holtby & possibly Sigurdsson.

How on earth can you consider thudd as versatile?!?!
He can play cm and at a stretch he could play cb. That's it
