The thing that disappointed me most was not signing a proper left back. It's OK saying Mings and hause can play there but it's not their proper position. I refuse to believe that there aren't at least a few dozen left backs in the lower leagues or abroad we could have got in for a million or 2 that would be 5 times better than the level Taylor is operating at currently.
Left back is actually Tyrone Mings natural position.
He was moulded into a centre back by Eddie Howe following his knee injury and hasn’t played there since.
I doubt physically he could play an attacking left back role. An old fashioned left back that doesn’t cross the half way line might be fine, but not overlapping and tracking back for 90 minutes week in week out role.
