Nothing against Brandon but he is out of his depth as a left back, he keeps cutting in to pass the ball with his right foot, which can be so risky like against Chelsea for Mount's goal and hardly ever goes on the overlap when we are attacking. He was obviously at fault for the two goals against Sevilla but I also blame Wan Bisakka, Lindelof and Maguire as much as I blame Brandon, but in my opinion Brandon is not a left back and I doubt he can be a starting left back for any team in the premier league so why should he be playing there for us? He just does not give us any balance on the left side, plus he does not combine well with Rashford like Shaw does even though Rashford hardly gives him any protection. My main thing is that he is not comfortable on his left side and he becomes predictable.
Dennis Irwin was a right footed left back but he was very comfortable going on his left foot and even when he had to cut in to his right foot, his delivery into the box was quite special and I'm trying to remember how many crosses Brandon has delivered since Shaw's injury. Basically teams know to leave our full backs alone with all the space in the world because they both have absolutely no attacking qualities and offer no threat whatsoever going forward.
I would prefer for him to be challenging, Wan Bisakka and Laird for the right back spot and then Ole should go for the Sevilla left back Reguillon because Real Madrid do not want him and not only will he provide a good quality cover for Shaw, he might even keep the position outright because we know for sure he has a better delivery than any full back we have, and I really hope Ole give Laird an opportunity to compete next season afterall he was the reason why Brandon was converted to a left back because Ethan took his place at right back.
