Tough one isn't it, it's whether or not he's happy to be sat on the bench.
If we want to make the step up, we need to improve at the back, which could mean possibly Kitching or Thomas even dropping to the bench, he'd be right down the pecking order, especially if we bring in a new RB cover.

I’m glad we have ambitious players pushing to start football matches. In the case of Lati, he’s not as strong a defender at CB as Thomas or Kitching. Frankly, we need to upgrade on one of those CBs in any case.

Lati is a defender suited to 3 CB formations, he’s not defensively strong enough to be a CB in a 2 CB formation nor is he quick enough to be an out and out RB. As you’ve mentioned before, his knack for diving in front of players to win free kicks makes me nervous. Being uber harsh, I think he does it to paper over the fact he’s just not that great a CB and officials help out poor defenders too often because they can flop over and win a FK.

It was only a 10 or so minutes, against Luton I’m sure Sakamoto was almost playing as a WB out of possession and the ‘back 4’ looked more like a 5 before the red card.

I swear Binks’ entire reputation at our club rests on one tackle and a celebration for a disallowed goal at Wembley.

…and his shoes that were being shown in his signing video. Ridiculous signing

Completely agree, nothing wrong with him as a person, you'd want all your players banging on the door wanting to play wouldn't you.
He's a good versatile player at this level, if he wanted to play somewhere where he will get more minutes i'm sure there would be plenty of takers.
Who knows whether he will push for a move, but either way we do need to improve the defence if we want to make sure we are up at the top throughout the season.
