Completely agree with Darren, I reckon we should build the team around him next season.
Not sure about building a team around him. But he deserves to have a run in the hole or behind the strikers. Too often last season he was played on the left,Bristol in the cup comes to mind,he was itching to get involved and link up,but TSM wasted him out wide.

A right-back who could attack would give us this option. 4-2-3-1, with Gabby wide right + cutting in, with new RB overlapping, Ireland in the hole and Zog out left.
