He seemed caught between two stools on the attack v defence question. The main thing is that he's positive come August. He spoke a good game in the latest interview when he said how he wants the wide CBs pressing forward to create overloads. Unfortunately, he isn't as committed as LW and is quicker to go defensive when faced with a bit of adversity.

Being bold is the key - it landed LW a Championship job.
Too much pragmatism will have us mid-table or worse, and I don't think the club or the fans will be happy with that.
