You could apply that logic to any position

Defensive midfield. And he starts further back than the wing backs.

I was taking the piss. You are so obsessed by him being a wing back you can't accept that you might be wrong

I don’t care, he might play further forwards, I’m just doing a bit.

Wingbacks being midfielders I’m not budging on though.

So you would class Bidwell as a midfielder?

Bidwell = defensive wingback - Maatsen = attacking wingback
Bidwell is less of a midfielder as will spend most of his time in defensive 1/3 of the pitch
Maatsen is more of a midfielder as will spend most of his time in attaching 1/2 of the pitch
If we are dominating possession then both "should" be playing in midfield, if not and pushed back both will be defenders
Its such a pivotal position.

Bidwell is consistently the furthest forward non striker during games.

It’s about whether he offers an attacking threat not where he stands …. Bidwell is a defender and a solid one at that …

Amad Diallo (Man utd)
Noam Emeran (Man Utd)
Jesurun Rak-Sakyi (Crystal Palace)

2 of those 3 would be ideal to add to the forward areas.

The mighty Football League World recommended we should sign him if Hamer left. It's a non-story.

Someone on Twitter has suggested we are looking at Patino from Arsenal. I believe he wants a permanent deal. 19 and played 37 games for Blackpool last season. Could be good but heard mixed things.

Where does Emeran play given he's been pretty much just a winger and doesn't have the skill set to play centrally?

There's definitely something to work with tbf, I think people write footballers off so early these days. At 19 to have that experience in the Championship is a very good starting point.

Oh I agree, I don’t know I hear so much about him I just automatically think there’s to much hype about him.

how did he perform last year for Blackpool? Genuine question

Definitely. A player with that kind of potential would be an exciting signing, especially on a permanent deal

From what I gather he started well and was a bit of a fan favourite, then faded as the season went on. Not entirely surprising for a teenager in a poor team tbf.

Personally I don’t want 18/19 year old loans, pissed off with polishing other teams starlets as we have with McNulty and Doyle. Loan to buy as we did with Sheaf I can go with at a push.

I’m sure Patino handed in a transfer request as wants to play first team football and not have another loan. Be a good option off the bench pushing other players for 500/700k maybe.
