I feel like a broken record but the wing backs situation is absolutely killing us this year. Emerson Royale is laughably poor, but for me Reguilon is not much better. I keep hearing noise about what a prospect he is but I just don't see it. He can't defend, he can't pass to save his life, his 1st touch is awful, other than being able to run fast he offers us nothing. Emerson is the same but he can't even run fast! Am I alone in thinking this, what do you guys think? For me it's absolutely criminal the Reguilon gets picked ahead of Sessegnon, I actually thing Sess has potential, its his terrible injury record that's holding him back I reckon but games like the Brighton one show how desperate the wing back area is, we didn't get behind them down either side once in the entire game, so Brighton just flooded the middle of the park giving Kane no space at all. If teams set up to not lose to us they invariably end up beating us!

Agree wheels all our full backs are dreadful and its only Romero who looks good out of the whole defence, I can see us losing out on top 4 and conte walks in the summer.

First I will say I think Conte is doing an amazing job getting this lot even in contention for Champions League qualification.

But his system, yes it’s a system, requires quality wing backs which we don’t have. This is his weakness…. unless the wing backs can get forward pass/ cross accurately our chances to score are seriously hampered. We do not have a creative midfielder in the first team squad to provide an alternative outlet, unless one considers Kane dropping back and pinging balls in behind for Son to run on to.
