So it likes we're set in the attacking midfield positions now and the three main players in that area are Cantwell, Rashica and Tzolis. All very talented of course, but one issue that I haven't seen mentioned (apologies if it has) is that all three of them seem to prefer playing on (or from) the left.

We know that Cantwell has played almost exclusively on the left for the last couple of seasons, Tzolis is playing on the left in all highlights and we're told Rashica is also most comfortable there, which is why he started there against Liverpool with Cantwell shifted to the right.

Even though his best performances here have always been on the left, Cantwell is a talented, versatile player who can play other positions, Rashica as well played elsewhere for Werder Bremen and Tzolis I really have no idea about. 

So who is going to end up getting the nod in their favoured position, and who is going to be shifted to accommodate him? It's a tough question and I honestly have no idea.

I really find it hard to see Cantwell being permanently dislodged as the first choice left winger, but that Tzolis / Giannoulis link up must be one Farke is keen to weaponise. It’s a tough one, definitely Cantwell’s shirt to lose, would take a big drop off in his form or a real impressive run from Tzolis for that to change IMO.

I just want to beat Dean Coneys Boots and/ or Big Vince in saying that, 

"It is typical of the 'Suffolk socialists' to pack the team full of left wingers."

Dowell isn't as high in the pecking order as those three.

That's not an opinion and it's not about whether I rate him or not.

Fair response mate. Just didn't know if you think he is good enough or not as he ended last season well enough

I agree, he did, and he still has a role to play here.

But there's no doubt Cantwell is ahead of him and, given the prices we paid, so are Rashica and Tzolis now.
