Good post. Dead rubber v Red Star coming up. Give him a trial see where he's at. Gomez can go LB.Judging by the comments, I must have blinkers on where he's concerned. other than a stupid yellow, I had no issue with him at all today. Good solid 7/10 no thrills performance in my eyes. We were asking him to play as a narrow 3 then go wide to make a 4 when Akanji gets back in as we do with walker, walker can do it because he's so rapid, gvardiol isn't slow but is nowhere near walker pace so it shows just how much we ask them to do.
He will play most of this season at fullback. That's where peps going to develop him. Left back is like the primary school of peps education, it's a less risky and easier position to learn and excel in and only when he masters that will we see him progress to playing as a centre back or doing the midfield hybrid role.
Peps not going to chuck him in at cb anytime soon. Besides, who we playing left back if gvardiol is centre half? Peps already said Ake cannot play every game right now.

This left back problem is a joke now and needs sorting . Yes ok as people we won the treble but that was last year and now it’s history . We can salvage this and I’m sure we will but this title is going to be one hell of a battle .Really cultured player. Lovely eye for a pass. Does not have the speed for a left back. Everybody can see it.
The Left Back Problem goes on.
ah so he’s in primary school now. i usually see a) doesn’t trust him as cb yet or b) ake’s injury prone so who else to rotate at lb. interesting post, i’m obviously not a pep expert.Judging by the comments, I must have blinkers on where he's concerned. other than a stupid yellow, I had no issue with him at all today.
