Would you feel safe with Mellberg-Cheillini and a bench of Legro and Knezevic?
Yes. Chiellini and Melberg are two very solid CB's.

Legro has done extremely well when called up on and has proved his worth a number of times for us. We don't know much about Knezevic but he was part of a very impressive Croatian defense in the Euros.

Andrade's injury is a huge blow but we didn't rely on him last season, we don't need to this season.

You have a bad habit of contradicting yourself.

First you suggest his injury will make us feel unsafe as we will lack in quality them you go on saying that he isn't a good signing.
What has going to CL and Serie A football with only 4 defenders anything to do with me not rating Andrade?

I felt disappointed when we signed him that's for sure... I thought we might bring someone better, younger and less injury prone.

Even with a healthy Andrade I won't feel safe with our backline and now that he is injured the situation is even worst... 4 defenders isn't enough for CL and Serie A let aside that "Mellberg, Legro, Knezevic" are average or slightly above average at best defenders.

So how did contradicted myself, again?

I know Mellberg, Legro and Knezevic aren't world class, but are you saying that having four cb's is not enough? It's not like we'll play with six defenders.
