Also if you want to bring stats into it - his normal shooting accuracy is 30% on the left 100% on the right - that proves he is more effective on the right then does it? I prefer him on the left though
Just saying he doesn't look all that on the right. {Not surprising, 17, whole life on left blah blah.}

I'd rather have seen AMN there in Pépé's absence. He seems to have drawn the short straw by coming through earlier. If he's now behind Willock for CM, at least give him a shot at 2nd choice RW.

In those two years as FB, his weakness was defending. He got better and better at beating his man and getting a cross in. Give the lad a chance.

Or failing him, Reiss. Take out the goal and had RN played as Saka did, all the AFTV fückwits would be saying get rid.

Yes, he had loads of Wolves players on him much of the time. Yes, him and Cedric looked like they were playing different sports.

I still think AMN and RN could come good. RN's the same age as Gnabry was when we ditched him. And I've always liked Ainsley.
