If you've got your two centre-backs, you've got Klichy or Kolarov, who's going to play left-back against him, which one do you play?
You go with Kolarov because you've got a bit more size, a bit more presence.
Because any time that ball gets played into the far post, I don't care at all, you are in trouble because of the power and athleticism he has.
Has he answered the question for now, Alan, about where he plays for West Ham as well?
Well, yeah, I think so.
I mean, listen, Slavon Bilic, I don't think he would have given up altogether on him as a full-back, but clearly his strength's lying going forward.
I mean, Jamie summed it up quite well at the start, saying sometimes he falls through challenges.
He doesn't always look like a Premier League player.
Let's face it, his technique sometimes doesn't look at the required level.
but he plays with great heart, he's a really strong boy, and he has got this ability to get on the end of chances.
So you would want to use him in an attacking sense more than defensive.
What did you make of Bournemouth in the second half, Nalo?
Yeah, good.
I think they had a better purpose about what they did.
Their passing was crisper and they looked to support the front players an awful lot better.
Very early on, their intent was evident.
This came quite close.
They'd found themselves a little space and they started to believe in themselves.
Real good save there from Adrian on that chance.
Do you know, that sort of gave them a bit of a wake-up call.
