Left Back, Left Back, Left Back

When are we going to resolve the left back issue? For a long time now, I have strongly believed that our #3 is not a defender as he does not possess the qualities of defender required in professional football. I guess he'll do well as a left winger.

Balde is barely a footballer honestly, he can run, some dribbles here and there with fuck all end product. Not a winger or a defender.

He is good at defending his main problem is physical and loss of concentration issues (as for every defender in Flick high line)

Balde is our LB for the future. Deal with it

It's actually in attack that he's killing us. Can't cross can't pass and can't use his right foot for shit and often over complicates simple stuff

Wouldnt call him a good defender currently.

Positionally he can be woeful and doesnt engage enough. Always wants to back off and make it a race and can get passed round/leaves a lot of space for opposition.

Concentration has nothing to do with his lack of defending ability. Some players can defend if focused. Balde could never defend well. He's an incapable defender. Simple as that.

So, he either gets great at delivering in the last 3rd, or he'll be cut form the team relatively quickly.

Over a year ago, I said Balde does not deserve to be in Spanish NT and that there are 2-3 better LBs in La Liga on top of Cucu and Grimaldo.
So yeah, not even top 5 Spanish lbs.
