Been saying this for ages. Think he’d make a mint wing back.

This is a joke, right? I've been defending him on here against many — the guy's got quite a lot of skill, more than he's given credit for. But physical, he ain't! He will just get bullied, as much as Rico, I think. I've barely seen him go into a fifty-fifty tackle and come out with the ball. In fact, I don't think I have.
I want, once more, to see wing backs who are both fast and able to mix it, i.e. Walker in his prime, Gael Clichy too. And what we thought Mendy was going to be (and indeed what he looked like, briefly, before it was all fucked up by his injury, and his general gormlessness). We don't appear to have them at present. But if we don't, we need to get them. Because we're getting done in that part of the field, big time.

Anywhere except in midfield.

Isn’t there a stat somewhere of him making the most tackles for Wolves and/or Sporting?

Is there? I'd love to see it. In any case, I go on the evidence of my eyes. And I repeat — as an attacking player, I don't think he's at all as bad as some on here are saying.

he made a great tackle v wolves in the dying embers of the match, we broke away as a result of it, won a corner, and stones nodded in the winner.

I'm not convince at the idea of him at full-back may I add, just thought I'd throw that piece of play in there.

They have a full squad whilst we are still ravaged with injuries. Cant use my limited energy to be bothered about this game

Akanji, Ake and Stones unavailable? Lewis suspended.
Looks like a back 3.

Walker Dias Gvardiol
Nunes Gundog Kovacic Bernardo
Foden KdB
Erling

Goalkeeper anyone's guess

 

[Brewster's millions]

Might take my boots with me on Sunday.

 

[Bellamy's Caddy]

Make the ball sweat it's simple keep possession and have pace wide both sides.

Hopefully!
