This is a big problem for us still, IMO.
Mykolenko improved in the last few games of the season, but he looks like a fish out of water when he gets over the halfway line. Coleman has mistakes in him. Patterson looks like a player who just wants to play in the opposition half.
The deputies at RB and LB - Holgate and Godfrey - are simply not up to playing there in any average PL team.
I said late last season we're going to need to see another FB brought in - one who's adapatble and can play on either flank, and as part of a back three if necessary.
It's frightening the lack of all round quality in the FB position. In recent seasons we had Baines and Digne and Coleman at his peak. They provided a lot of attacking flair and could also do a job back behind the ball, even if it was just to get back and double up and cover and close down space.
People see the numbers we have at FB and think it's elsewhere we need strengthening more, but the FB position is very weak IMO.
