Back in March there was a Q&A with Summerville on the O/S and he said that at Leeds the gaffer wanted him to play like a No 10, while Potter "wants me to be more of a left winger".
Bit of a surprise him saying that, especially as Potter habitually changes formations and plays attackers in all sorts of different roles and positions. The good thing about that is that if our only left wingers are injured (like now) then he can just play a different formation like now with 532. The teeny weeny downside is that the players don't get used to a specific role and so we're shit however he sets us up and we don't get better.

Exactly. It's either as a wingback or swapping places with Fullkrug. Like Massive said, it's so unbalanced and weird

Yep where does Summerville fit in, there isn't a place for him other than Füllkrug's

It's going to be interesting to see what Potter will do when Summerville is fit.
Bench him and play Guido as an emergency winger, most likely

We're gonna need a bigger thread.
Does it really matter? He isn't a wing back and wouldn't get any minutes if he was fit.

It's a good point actually. The Squad is a total mis-mash now between those that are wide forwards better utilised in say a 4231/433 lile we used to play or the 235 formation we now set up that isn't designed for the likes of Summerville/Guilherme. The composition of the Squad is so confused and muddled.
