I do practically agree with all of that but I do think he's easy to assess now. As harsh as it sounds I just simply don't think he's a good enough player to be a regular starter. Sometimes you have to factor in consistency with ability and consistency is something that he doesn't have near enough of. Plus for someone who is pretty quick he doesn't use his pace near enough. From a wide position I can remember Tanganga showing more endeavour in trying to beat a man down the flank than I can remember Lucas doing so.
I see most squad players as usually being relatively short term. If Moura isn't at the level to become a first team player, I don't believe he is, then at some point he will likely want to join a team where he can play. He's 27 now and after his CL exploits has a reasonable reputation. Might not be the worst time to sell depending on how much teams are spending.lucas is a good rotational option to have, and we need a starter

I would say bergwijn,Kane and son are our starters, be hard to upgrade in current climate and then Willian and Lucas off the beachright wing, hopefully bergwijn can develop well

On a separate note, I'd be interested in this idea of securing Ryan Fraser and trying him at LWB.
For starters, now I know he's right-footed it would make sense to try him on the right. I think he's a competent player and has a bit of pace.Ryan Fraser to be signed for LB would be stupid, it's not like we have an already solid defence where we can just try an experiment like that. Get someone who we know can defend and contribute to securing a solid back line first and foremost.
If we're going to convert an attacking player into a rounded full back, put all the eggs in the Sessegnon basket please.
Everyone's favorite source... feel free to verify if you'd like.
No, however circumstances might dictate the sort of window we end up having.Isn’t Fraser 5’4” or something? Doesn’t exactly scream ‘good RB for a top 6 side’.
We could just stick with KWP, an actual right-back.No, however circumstances might dictate the sort of window we end up having.
yeah, because that worked the first time.We could just stick with KWP, an actual right-back.
With the way Jose plays (one FB up, one back) I was suggesting that, rather than invest in another 'cant defend' forward thinking right back, we trust Sessegnon with that role on the left and buy a proper defensive right back.That would cover LB, but what about RB? He is right footed so would give us options on both sides. But I'm not sure if it's the best option
