Tino looked better at LB than RB last season, and I think it’s down to the players around him. At RB, he had Murphy ahead of him, who doesn’t really offer much link-up play or movement to support overlaps. But on the left, playing with Gordon or Barnes, he had teammates who cut inside and created space for him to attack. Even Trippier struggled to impact games on the right last season, which shows it’s more about chemistry and whole setup than position.

The link-up between Tino and Barnes for about 4-6 weeks was one of the biggest reasons we have a cup win and another top 5 finish.

Aye, Murphy needs a full back, Gordon and Barnes need a wing back.
