Micky as a backup fullback? When does he get rested and rotated?But you are not ok with VdV as third choice backup? How many times will he be needed to play in that position as the third option?
He is first choice left centre back. And arguably the most crucial component of how we play, at least defensively. It went to shit when we lost him. Of course, suspensions for others played a part in the short term (as well as Dier/Davies/Royal as the depth) but his recovery pace bailed us out constantly.
We need a full back to cover Udogie that isn't Van de Ven. You could argue we actually need a LCB to rotate Micky because Dragusin in the Romero depth.
