That's an...interesting back five. Attacking midfielder (Tracey), Central Midfielder (Marsh), Central Defender (Maghoma), Fullback (Lyons-Foster) & Left Winger (Georgiou).

If we are playing that system it suggests we're finally starting to mirror the first team. Its been a bit of an anomaly up til now that we haven't.

Marcus Edwards turned down loan moves to the Championship and Holland today because he wants to fight for a first-team breakthrough at Tottenham

Has Kyle W-P ever played as an attacking winger at all at youth level? From the few videos I've seen it looks like eh has the pace and trickery so just wondered if it had ever been tried. Thanks in advance

TBH abit gutted for KWP, he gets asked to step in the first game of the season and puts in a good performance(not a motm performance imo but he won it anyway)

He is then rewarded by being dropped for the big game and his replacement has two poor games, the club signs Aurier, who is a young RB and dont sell Trippier nor loan out KWP. TBH he is going to waste 6 more months of his career.

Then people will point to him in the future that hasnt done much and this is clearly because he isnt good enough overlooking why he may have stagnated in the first place.

As for Edwards, I hope he gets a chance, I rather him get a chance than Sissoko and Nkoudou
Personally, I think Poch has lost faith in Trippier and think he will be off next season (assuming Aurier does well). KWP will get games due to his versatility, but will be a mixture of LB, RB and possibly subs apps on the wing IMO.
