That could be down to us only having four CBs on tour. If Sanchez or Dier were there he might have had more time at RB.

Why? We have aurier and KWP with Foyth as backup/rotation. Don’t see why you need more than that.

Because none of them are good enough to be first-choice?
If we didn’t already, we better be looking hard.

Poch obviously disagrees

Okay. I think you’re clutching at straws but whatever.

I don’t think we will sign another right back but we can’t yet say definitely what Poch does or doesn’t think.

Obviously disagrees?
How obviously?
There's been nothing 'obvious' to suggest Poch has his mind set on one of those having the no 2 shirt.

How about using Sanchez as a RB? He has the speed and he can tackle and he can pass long

Doesn't have the attacking sensibilities and ball control that Foyth has

But from what I hear we will be using our wingers more as wingers as the midfield is going to be taking more on inside so there is not as much emphasis on Wing Backs apparently
also Sanchez can also hit a nice long ball
I do like Foyth by the way ,Thinks he will be a great player (probably eventually a DM)

Maybe the reason we were prepared to let Trippier and Rose go is that Poch is contemplating a formation change in which our RBs will have much less attacking responsibility. The likes of Davies and Foyth are fine if their main responsibility is to defend.

Possibly, but the use of the 41212 formation suggests otherwise. We’re far too narrow without the option of marauding fullbacks

I haven't seen any of our pre-season games yet. Who has played at right back? Foyth's suspended for the first two games isn't he? We might just want to make sure that whoever is starting those first games will be ready - especially as game two is away to Man City.

He's so assured and calm on the ball. It's like having an additional ball playing midfielder up the pitch when we're in possession. I like it.
