So calm and collected on the ball, even when in tight spots defensively he can make a tough challenge without lashing out at the legs of opposing players.

Example: That cross from a Genoa player in which he chested down in our box and calmly played it out of the back, under slight pressure from a striker. That was nice to see. Another player would have just hoofed it anywhere.
I agree, we should use him in both roles - and that is his natural position - even though we really haven't seen him play it. But I would also say that ATM he's done enough for me right now that I would be willing to count on him as a second choice RB to start next season.
Anyway, I really think that we need to make sure we cover ourselves properly at CB. We at least need to make up the numbers.
We also need to get out the wallet, and find ourselves a sick 1st choice RB.
