I have never seen this lad play so cant judge the quality of signing.
However in answer to your how many full backs do we need question we are hardly overrun with them are we.
As far as I know we have :-
Johnson
Kelly
Flanagan
Enrique
New kid ?
Kelly never got a look in last season and for me unless something has changed drastically with him then he wont again.
Johnson was absolutely shocking and if they could move him on now they probably would. His wages are probably the reason they cant. Next season he will be out of contract and gone.
Enrique I like but again Rodgers didnt seem to play him as regulaly as I feel he should of. That suggests that he doesnt fancy him.
I cant see anything wrong with bringing in a highly rated player if the manager thinks he is good enough. Especially in a position where we are weak.

Opting for the cheap 'solid' option again
we saw last night what happens when you have too many solid players in your starting line up. The more of these average players that we sign the more pressure gets heaped onto the shoulders of the few creative players we do have in the squad.
Fullback is such an important position these days, why not pay out the extra few million and get Moreno who at least has the pace to trouble teams?
