The Fish 10856 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 (edited) 25 minutes ago, David Kelly said: I can't see him being brought in to play leftback. Our first choice rightback is very attacking so I doubt Rafa will want a leftback who primary position is on the wing. Maybe when we play Yedlin we'll play Dummett and playing Manquillo will see Kenedy on the other flank? Edited August 10, 2017 by The Fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying it's impossible that we use him there but I can't imagine that's the reason we're looking to bring him in. Surely if you want a leftback you sign a leftback not a left winger who can play there? If it were a permanent signing it might be that Rafa sees something in him that he can convert him to a regular fullback but that doesn't make any sense if it's just a loan. There also doesn't seem to have been any talk of us being after a leftback whereas we're constantly being linked to wingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea mate says he was at his best as a right sided forward, so now I don't know what to think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 13863 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Versatility, innit. Rafa's total football. I haven't got a clue about this kid except for that China caper but you have to hope that they actually see something in him and it's not a case of taking anyone for the warm body Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
