How many times have we heard that Wan Bissaka is horrible offensively? 

Guess what. He has 4 PL assists. Only Willian and Azpi have more in our squad (5).

Well as you pointed out, Azpi has 5 assists but I don't think anyone is calling him brilliant offensively.

I think a lot of that came from his being such a dominant defensive force that people wrote off his offence as it was not near that level

[Vesper 27,336]

I had totally forgotten Brandon Williams is right footed until a week ago or so

that is why I went back to listing LB as a need for Manure

there is no way you can win the big trophies in today's football with a out of position fullback

look at us when Azpi goes to LB

Spot on. I've watched AWB plenty of times this season and he's been a donkey going forward. Looks almost like Kante when he's near the box when he's in possesion. Like he's not quite sure what the do with the ball.

Its a perfectly fine trade off for a player to be poor going forward as long as they're world class defensively. It's what Azpi has been for years.

The funny thing is even United fans have been saying AWB isn't great going forward either. Not only us people.
