I'll say it's Insua, on another note did anyone notice how beefed up Insua looked? He's massive now

Aurelio if he didn't have the physique of a wet paper bag.

In terms of pace, ability and prospect - Robinson

Injuries aside then it is undoubtedly Aurelio

Jesus, the last thing Insua needed was to beef up, I was praying he'd come back slimmer.
I think Aurelio is the best football but I'd still be looking to sign a left-back personally. Aurelio will probably move on next year, then we can have Robbo properly challenging A.N. Other for a spot.

Robinson is still a baby, but he does have a lot of potential. I was surprised that Flanagan was chosen ahead of him to play on the left side last season, despite him playing excellently against Arsenal and for me this said a lot.
We need to be patient with him, as he is one for the future.
I would like to see Aurelio move on. He's our best left at the club, but he's in his 30's and made of glass. A new LB with backup/rotation being provided by Insua and Robinson is what I would like to see happen.

Aurellio is head and shoulders above any left back we've had this decade. I think he is sheer quality, one of Rafa's best signings. He hardly ever puts a foot wrong or makes silly defensive errors etc. He reads the game well, has excellent set pieces etc. TBH he is very underated.
Hodgson re-signing him was one of the only good things he done,. it's just a shame he is so injury prone.
this can also be said about Agger too.

Injuries aside, aurelio. But i did like insua for a while, more because of his crossing and attacking game, defensively i wasnt too sure and he looked out of shape aswell.
beefed up ? he has always looked beefy to me lol, looked like he was blowing out of his ... vs malaysia too, got some assists mind.

Insua, Robinson or Johnson. Aurelio good player but knackered and too disruptive as a result.
