I wonder if he's going to get a new deal and we're stuck with him for another year... Sorry, I like Ash and Cash but I just think RB is an area we could significantly improve especially after seeing what Moreno can do on the opposite flank.
Yes but having full-backs on both flank capable of "doing a Moreno" means we have better choice and keep the opposition guessing (i.e play Digne/AN other on the left playing more conservatively and on the other side, a right-full back version of Moreno).

Left-side - Celtic - Tizwasas a wise man once signatured.
I'd be surprised if he doesn't get another 12 months, he just seems like a very good option to have in the squad.
