Really not sure why we signed Telles. Probably to have a hood back up for Luke. He’s been excellent since last year. He really matured under Ole. His runs up and down the left side is great. He links well with marcus, he actually adapts to whoever is playing on the left in front of him. He’s solid defensively and his crossing improved like magic this year. Very good performance today
I dont think he was this good until we bought Telles.
I think it's his arrival and him learning from him that has helped his attacking play in particular and be more well rounded.
Ole is doing this because he saw this under SAF.
Ole bought Wan Bissaka and Likes Shaw because everyone uses inverted forwards these days - so fullbacks with some defensive abilities isnt a bad thing to have in your locker. That doesnt mean he isnt interested in attacking ones - this is why I assume he will go for the attacking RB aswell and Ole may hope AWB develops a bit better than he has currently done learning from absolutely nobody.
Shaw is learning from a 27 year old and now is starting to look like a complete player. On the other hand Wan Bissaka has absolutely no one to learn from in a position he has only played in for 3 years.
