Fair play. There is a huge amount of optimism about Foyth bring through as our 1st choice RB. I'll be reserving judgement on a player that albeit has shown great potential, has also had many brainfart moments.
I do think he'll become a very good/ potential elite CB but I'm not sure he has the exact attributes to become a modern day FB/WB. Going into the new season with Aurier, Foyth and the clearly underated and underdeveloped KWP is disappointing to say the least. Added that Sessegnon appears to be the only piece of recruitment for the outgoing Rose I'm standing in the 'the FB situ is high risk' camp.
I predict we'll revisit this in the coming windows.
I really hope he succeeds at RB if that's where he ends up, but I haven't seen anything so far to suggest that he'll be better than our rivals' players in that position.
He looks like he could really develop into an excellent defensive player, but going forward he doesn't have blistering pace or the ability to take his man on. Not sure what his crossing is like.
Happy to be proved wrong, but I think CB is his best position.
