I think it’s worth keeping him around just in case we play Real again and we need him to destroy Vini Jr one more time….l

The fact that Walker could do that, shows that his a generational talent too. How the f*** does he neutralise and pocket the most feared left sided attackers, not just attackers but generational talents such as Mbappe, including Neymar, Vini Jr. Walker is stone cold. This guy is a killer, a tank!Kyle Walker is STILL the best Right Back in the world, hence how easily he dealt with the two best, & most feared left sided attackers in world football last season. \0/
Wrong imoWalker is a good RB, mostly on defense. His offensive skills aren't world class; on defense he relies often on his pace, which given his age (33) is going to be worse and worse in coming seasons.
If Walker leaves, I wish him well. We'll easily find a replacement.
Disagree - hell, we started Stones at RB b/c Walker wasn't cutting it.Wrong imo
No other RB in the world can deal with elite wingers as well as Walker.Disagree - hell, we started Stones at RB b/c Walker wasn't cutting it.

Walker is 33. His biggest asset is pace. He doesn't read the game well on defense; on offense he's of course decent, but not at all exceptional. At his age, Walker's pace is going to shortly fall off a cliff.No other RB in the world can deal with elite wingers as well as Walker.
Yes his technical and offensive skills aren't super strong but in big games against the best wide players - replacing Walker is a nightmare.
This isn't to say we can't improve without him, we will probably evolve the team in a different way, just that his specific skills are near-impossible to replace.
