Thats where the 3 badass CBs come in handy.That's true a lot of the time, but there are a number of absolutely crucial games each year where we need fullbacks who are top defenders. We saw what happened when we played Son at LWB v Chelsea for instance. Against our top 4 rivals and in the knockout stages of the CL there will be teams who would target any weaknesses in that area IMO.

I'm all for Toby here for the long term. One of my favorite players on the team. When I see Sess and think of what he could be, we have badass AM options, what if Sess could grow into a Marcelo type player at the LB/LWB spot? Real Madrids attack is so much more dangerous with how much can provide from the fullback spot. Now I know Marcelo is one of the best fullbacks of all time but maybe Sessegnon has that sort of potential.They do, but we have to sacrifice an attacking MF to play that way and sometimes we do need a back 4. It all just strengthens my belief that we should give Toby his bumper contract and get him onboard for a few more seasons. It may be seen as rewarding his alleged bad behaviour, but a player with his class should really be a very big part of our plans moving forward.
If he gets 10 goals or more this season, I’d say he’d be worth more than 50mil.
