Looked plenty good enough against Yanited and a whole host of other decent sides last season so -who knows- he might be just finding his way back after a longterm injury.
Maybe, but even in that game (against Manchester United) he made some pretty basic defensive errors. The one on Saturday was schoolboy stuff and was exactly like the first goal at Luton.
It's the risk you take, playing that sort of full-back/wing back.
Yedlin didn't look much cop defensively when we were running at him second half. England international Kyle Walker -who has just signed a long-term contract for Champions of the Universe Tottingham- STILL looks suspect defensively at times.
We could look for a Steady Eddie Luke Young-type, I wouldn't be against that at all. But it changes the way you play. Part of the reason you play an attacking wing-back is that you actually want the opposition to go at you at what they perceive to be a vulnerability. That draws them out and -if you're good enough- you can exploit the space. Or you back your wingback to be causing their flank enough problems and playing enough of the game in their half -removing most of the threat they possess.
