Im sorry but I don’t think my opinion is rubbish.
he’s a decent defender, nothing special. His attacking input is woeful, he doesn’t make the correct runs, doesn’t put a decent ball in the box and most importantly, his attacking stats are absolutely shocking.
he’s a mediocre fullback at best, nothing special about him at all. In fact, he just isn’t that good.
Question, is Williams really that good or have we just become so untuned to have an attacking (with end product) FB?
Howson mentioned it on one of his videos the other day, come the summer England's first choice LB will probably be Rose and Chilwell but if either of them are ruled out could Williams get a call?
Yeah, Williams this season has won us 2 penalties, picked up an assist, scored a goal and realistically should've bagged another today, their attacking games are on different planets. I don't think Shaw's completely useless, I don't doubt his talent but his attitude and fitness are huge question marks about his long term future for me.If that’s the case - then yes, Shaw’s output is appalling.

Greenwood has no chance, he has Kane, Rashford, Sancho, Sterling, Abraham, Ings etc for competition.Him, and Greenwood.

With no redeemable features, apparently.Im sorry but I don’t think my opinion is rubbish.

No he isn't, he will be, but he's not right now. Let him develop before we throw him in the national team man.Greenwood is better than Ings, and Kane is injured...
I think that we're actually all in agreement that Shaw's attacking output is poor. To say that he has no redeemable features is just beyond ridiculous, we're talking about last season's player of the season.If that’s the case - then yes, Shaw’s output is appalling.
just after a game in which he won a pen and got himself into a scoring position, which he clearly should have scored from.
I agree with the other poster - your opinion is garbage!
I don't think your opinion is rubbish, but I think it's harsh to rule Brandon out or on the reverse side say he's categorically our LB for the next 10 years is also ludicrous, but he deserves a chance to continue playing after some good form.
What I think we can all agree on is Brandon is our best option for the remainder of the season at left back unless we make a crazy signing like Chilwelll.

Why would he worry? He did nothing for years before his contract expired, and he still got a better wage than before. Now he can go back doing nothing until 2023, and still gets paid.LB was so down our priority list that shaw was basically getting a free ride as the undisputed number one. Not anymore though, he ought to be a little worried about his future.
Its a great thing for us though as attacking full backs are very necessary in breaking down teams that sit back. Hope that Laird too develops along the same lines to give some more options on RB.
Shaw got injured in the warm up today so I don't think we have a lot of choice, as long as we don't leave Williams as exposed as we did against City in the first half I think he'll be fine. He's no Wan-Bissaka but he can handle himself defensively, just needs to avoid diving in against Salah because with his feet you're asking for trouble.
Football fans are unbelievably fickle. If Shaw has 3 good games in a row people will be calling for him to go to the Euros. All it takes is a few good/bad games to completely change fans perception of a player, Shaw (last seasons darling) and Rashford (last seasons scapegoat) are perfect examples.I think that we're actually all in agreement that Shaw's attacking output is poor.

No patience whatsoever. Last season and the start of this one, when I was critical of Rashford, I always made it clear that I believed he was good enough but that he wasn't there yet. It's like the concept of form has gone out the window.Football fans are unbelievably fickle. If Shaw has 3 good games in a row people will be calling for him to go to the Euros.

Huge impact on the team, in fact he has to be one of the most impressive kids to break into the team since the class of 92. Everything looks so comfortable to him and his understanding of his teammates runs and touch football is excellent.
Yesterday his running off the ball was fantastic opening all sorts of chances for the forwards.
He's doing everything that Shaw isn't and he deserves to keep his place as Shaw has been shocking ever since he signed that contract.
I wonder if his stepping into the midfield is a byproduct of him being a right footed left back or something Ole has told him to do. Not something we've seen before under Ole I think?

Milner is retired and Bertrand has been poor so far. I think if William's is first choice moving forward which is looking likely, he has a real good shot of going as number 2 LB.Bertrand and Milner will go before Williams
Chilwell and Rose are nailed on. Given Rose's bones are made of glass it's possible I suppose. I still think GS would go with Bertrand, or even Shaw or Young to be honest.Milner is retired and Bertrand has been poor so far. I think if William's is first choice moving forward which is looking likely, he has a real good shot of going as number 2 LB.
Being massively overrated on here, not convinced by him at all. Seems very suspect defensively.
