Festy Ebosele

He doesn't score enough goals to play as a winger, IMO. The traditional winger is pretty much dead.

Adama Traoré is probably the only classic winger in The PL.

RWB would probably be his best position. Most FBs are better at attacking than defending now anyway. Reece James is rare in that he can defend almost as well as he attacks.

4-3-3 is very common nowadays - indeed it was probably Kenny's preferred formation until he settled on the 3 CBs, so perhaps winger was the wrong term in that context, let's say wide forward player a la Salah.

It's far too early to say whether or not his goal/assist output would be good enough in that position given he has rarely played there at senior level. Perhaps as an inverted left sided forward, he could produce numbers, who knows? 

He certainly isn't a natural defender, he is at his best running at players and beating them, something Ireland has sorely lacked vs the so-called minnows, where we seem to just pass away in front of their defences and offer no penetration. Still think he can be a useful impact sub for this Irish team particularly when we are struggling to break these kinds of teams down.

bloody hell, some of you lads should never become agents. 

This is it. I do actually think the Championship is gradually veering towards an attractive place for younger players as in 19-22 looking to break through again. Bar the 3/4 with dough from relegation they really don't have a pot to piss in hence have to start relying on academies,blooding youth a bit more. It's also turning into a more technical League so throwing 11 hoofers into the fray won't suffice. Even the most traditional hatchet clubs like Millwall are slowly trying to change. 

For Ebosele he was right to look for top flight football off an impressive season. PL clubs were going to go for the more proven older product so Italy or Spain was the next best option who haven't the money PL clubs have hence they will sign players like Ebosele. We do have certain players now that fit this criteria.

Dara O'Shea is the probably the best example currently too good for Championship football but won't be fancy enough for PL clubs. Serie A or Bundesliga clubs however would upgrade with O'Shea in a heartbeat. It's players like this that need to show ambition and embrace moving to a top flight club in a continental League as opposed to settling for Championship football which for all is a decent standard is 2nd tier football. 

He's better then that. 

I'm not quite sure Dara has proven he is too good for Championship football tbh - the team he is currently captaining are 3rd from bottom, but he is certainly a very good Championship defender who maybe lacks that bit of extra power and pace to make it to the top end of the PL. We like to big up our own players, we hear similar about Egan all the time. I have no doubt either of those lads could do a job in the Prem for a bottom half team as they have done previously, but I'm not sure either could really be considered too good for the Championship.

Dara performed with credit in the PL and was basically leading them to a promotion charge again early last season until an unfortunate injury. All by the age of 22. Unfortunate for him that his club have had a meltdown both on and off the pitch since. One or two of the parachute payment clubs with money to burn were enquiring about buying him but you couldn't have blamed him too much sticking with West Brom. 

He is a player that has proven capable of playing at a higher standard of football then 2nd tier in the longer term is the point I'm making. 

Regular late night games on Saturdays and Sundays seem an obvious next step for the Premier League, at the expense of 3pm games on Saturdays. Eventually no reason why the 10 games each weekend can't be spread across separate time slots and all shown live - one on a Friday night, four on a Saturday, four on a Sunday and one on a Monday night. It seems inevitable. Not to mention games played overseas in time also.

Rubbish for travelling supporters obviously, but they allowed themselves to be sold out for the money years ago so are in no position to complain at this point.
