Really impressed with him even if he does look like drew Pritchard's love child, good signing

I noticed him misplacing a lot of passes...Good tackler though.

Did okay, a few dodgy clearances and struggled at times in possession when further forward because of a lack of a left foot. Strange we have 5 right sided centre backs and a left footed centre back/full back

However unlike Clucas, Wilmot can actually take a man on and beat him 😆 Quite amazing that we got him at that Price, what a deal we got done there. He looks great and (to me) he also looks a little bit like an owl.

Superb today. Reminds me a little of a young David Luiz. I think we might drop one or two clangers this season with the risks he takes but more than makes up for it with how many attacks he will start.

Back three were excellent today. We have a back 3 good enough for a promotion push in this division. Our "wingbacks" currently aren't good enough and our midfield options are still weak.

One of our wingbacks hasn't played yet though Doughty? It'll be interesting to see how he does, from am attacking sense he will surely be an improvement but he isn't a natural defender so could need a lot of time to adapt to the role.

What do you want him to do Vincent - attack or defend? Alexander Arnold is great going forward but he’s pretty shit at defending. If you see the role as being primarily defensive, pick Fox.

He's played for Charlton there, it's not new to him He's just not fit yet is he I think he'd make a difference

Young defenders often drop a bollock, I hope we give him some slack when that happens.
Real prospect this lad, but no guarantees of course.

Alexander Arnold isn't shit at defending at all. A good wingback has to be able to do both well, doesn't he? Your opinion Vincent- Southgate dropped him from the England squad for that very reason, despite Klopp’s chest beating. Although he eventually missed the Euro’s through injury he wasn’t guaranteed a starting position. My opinion with TAA he’s miles better going forward than he is defending.

You simply don't play for Liverpool at the level he has if you're shit at the job you're being asked to do. Alexander Arnold is better going forward without doubt, but he isn't shit at defending by any stretch.

Okay I’ll reword it- it’s definitely not his strong point; it was answering your original point where you seem to think it would take Doughty a long time to learn the defensive side of the wing back role- TAA is still learning that part.

Transfermarkt has him as a left wing back who has also played at left back. I seem to remember MON saying, when we signed him, that he was capable as left wing, left wing back and left back. He's not one of those wingers who looks like he can't stand up for himself - from the little I have seen of him he looks to be a capable defender. Time will tell, but I assume once he has been (sensibly) given some time to recover full fitness after his injury, that he will be able to play anywhere on the left to suit whatever formation MON wants to play.

Agree Smith Allen and Clucas starting did not help Allen may be the ultimate proffessional but lacks quality on the ball and is so weak
