Its not really pandering, pandering would be just playing him at LW. If a player tells you he won't play at LB, why would you just play him at LB?
Allowing a player to tell his manager where he will or won't play is pandering.
Perhaps you afford Messi or Ronaldo that kind of sway; but otherwise fuck that!
Manager = boss.
Its not as though Bergwijn has been excellent at LW. He's been so great we had a forum full of people wanking to a fast rugger all August.
Son > Berg/Lucas > Gil > Sessengon
...He's like 5th in line!
Really all a pointless discussion, anyway. Hes not going to cut it at LW. Whether he ever had the chance to do so at LB doesn't really matter. There's really not a lot of evidence for/against because we just haven't played him there. Either by his choice or mutual consent.
Touche.
