Frankly, I'm tired of seeing Sigurdsson out wide now. Yes, he has scored a few goals, but he offers NOTHING, I MEAN NOTHING! out there. He can't take on the fullback, he can only cut inside to his right foot, he shoots all the time, which is fine, cause he can shoot, boy can he shoot. But I do think we need more crosses and balls played into our strikers. And on top of this he always drifts in to the middle, occupying Eriksen or Holtbys space around the box. Now this is even more highlighted by playing Naughton behind him, as we all know Naughton doesn't provide any width what so ever going forward. In fact he provides very little at all going forward. So all of this combined has the effect off clogging up our play, basicly we have no left side whenever Naughton and Siggy plays.
I definitely think Townsend should get a run on the left with Lamela on the right. We already saw vs the Spammers that Townsend can whip in really good crosses with his right foot, imagine him on the doing the same with his left foot, with the added danger of also being able to cut in on his right foot.
Where this leaves Sigurdsson though, I don't know, sadly. I really like him, but he's not a wide player at all, and we seem to have players in all positions that can offer more than him.
