Sess, like GLC, will get chances to impress here shortly off the bench, I'm sure of it. It's our second league appearance with a new manager, he needs time to tinker his tactics and properly incorporate the squad. Jose knows he's gonna get a shift from the majority of our current starters. It's probably best for his development to start on the wing for us.

Has he played much on the right? Would be perfect for the Aurier role on that side.

Given Mourinho's quotes, we'll be far more likely to see him coming on for Lucas than for Aurier. He says he's not yet ready to play at full back, but did mention he could do a job on the right wing.

I hope that we can take off Son or Lucas with plenty of time left (if they are the starters) and give Sess a proper run out.

Personally I wouldn’t be using him at left back at the moment.

He should have plenty of opportunities cover for Moura and Son either off bench or rotation, especially with Christmas period coming up.

I think he will gradually become a fantastic player for us. He will be one if the first names on the team sheet from around next season. Sess, lo celso and n dombele have sooo much to add to our team and it will start to show soon enough.

The Aurier role is more of a wingback though so that's why I'm wondering if Sess could play there

I'd really like Sessegnon to get a run as a RM. Preferably he'd play LM but regardless of Son's display against United Son is undroppable due to the amount of goals he scores. Someone said something about Sessegnon being deployed as RM at Fulham. Lucas doesn't have the discipline and awareness to work effectively there as of now. Play Lucas a supersub through the middle instead. It's always what has worked the best.

Sessegnon is young and eager to prove himself, furthermore his main trait is that he's a really clever player and knows how to pick a pass. Energy, cleverness, awareness. He's exactly what we need down the wings. Give him a chance, atleast.

He needs to be on the bench at least. Would have brought him on for Son yesterday who was poor nd has played a lot of minutes.

I'd play Lo Celso in Mouras spot and Sess in place of Aurier. The right back pushes well up anyway leaving 3 at the back. Sess will do a far better job than Aurier for me and with Lo Celso tucking inside we should control centre midfield.

You want to play Sessegnon at RB?
