IMO Aurier is better than Tripps - He's NOT the answer and I have concerns over his injury record (but I also shared concerns with Toby's fitness and that ended up being unfounded) I am also hugely excited to see what KWP can do, I also think he's a better player with the ball at his feet than Tripps, but clearly he needs to grow in confidence and physically (get up and down the pitch for 90mins) if both of these two are fit and available I'm not fussed at all. I do not shit myself when I see either of them in the starting line up. I did when Tripps was there and unfortunately, my fears were realised more often than not.
We can upgrade Aurier without a doubt but I'd be more fearful of this if we did it this window as maybe it would mean bringing in too many players (I'm guessing as I've no idea what/who/why we are bringing in but appear to be linked to a few) as that may prove hard to integrate them, especially as preseason starts literally in a handful of days. Perhaps using this entire season to get KWP up to speed and then look for a better-suited RB (and maybe LB if Rose is going) for next window???
