We didDid we keep Wilson-Esbrand? Looks like he might be needed for the cup games now.
That’s a big shout!If Delph could be converted into a left-back, then it’s maybe time to give Nunes some time there, too.

Far from ideal, I admit, but Gvardiol will need protecting, Lewis is offering us plenty where he already is, and Guardiola is unlikely to turn to Wilson-Esbrand on a consistent basis. With Grealish or Doku ahead of him, Nunes could provide invaluable cover.That’s a big shout!

Perhaps, but his running and energy are desperately needed in midfield. If he’s withdrawn from there to cover left-back, then the extra miles have to go into the legs of our senior midfielders.more likely Rico as tonight.
I'm never worried about him when I see his name on the team sheet. What did we pay for him; 40m, was it? Maguire cost "TWGC"™ twice that. Just let that sink in.He'll be a huge miss. Hasn't had a bad game in years. Leaves us short at left back and centre back.
There had to be at least one injury didn't there, just fuck off International football
It doesn’t have to be much different for him when he plays there? He is playing right back now. He can still get forward from the left when he plays there. And to balance it, Walker or Akanji play RB, becoming a right centre back in possession.Perhaps, but his running and energy are desperately needed in midfield.

not sure if this is good or bad news
Not against the idea, just think he’s better where he is. We also need to utilise Nunes.It doesn’t have to be much different for him? He is playing right back now.

We can still play 3-1-6 with Rico at LB instead of RB. KDB just pulls over to the right instead of the left like currently. Rico left of the diamond, KDB right.
Rico played left back for England tonight and was still camped in the attacking line.
