Just watched a video of Mikautadze and he looks good. Reminds me of Ings. Nixon has been linking us to him for a while - has done very well so far this summer.

Would people prefer him or the Ukrainian guy?
Hasn’t the Ukrainian gone to besiktas?

He isn't playing as a wing back, not really a full back either. He's playing as a third centre back with Maatsen the one pushing up on the other side. Roberts sometimes even joins Cork and Cullen as a deep midfield three. The furthest he got forward yesterday wasn't from an overlapping position but...
