Lewis-Skelly is a fabulous talent but he was never a left back. He's a deep-lying ball progression midfielder (like Rice, Rogers, etc.) and has been so for his entire academy career. He put in a lot of effort last year to make the LB role work, and he was still exposed defensively many times. Very poor preseason from him since then, which just confirms that he can't stay there for long. The sooner he becomes Rice's understudy in that left-sided midfield role, the better. Calafiori has work to do on his defensive decision-making but his high-octane unpredictable movement on the overlap is nuts. The hate he's getting because of a couple mistakes isn't fair. He's one of our biggest X-factors every time he's on the pitch and will be our first-choice LB this season. If he stays fit, which is a ginormous "if" desu.
