Question for Ed001 and fellow posters - what do you think of Kenedy of Chelsea? I have seen him play twice (once against us last year or the year before) and I felt he played really well. The funny thing is that I thought he was a left winger, but he's listed as a left-back. So, although he seemed good enough in attack, what's he like as a defender? Is he worth looking at for our LB position? He's only 21, just had an unsuccessful loan at Watford, and reportedly looking for a move.
{Ed001's Note - I have never seen him play that I can remember.}

Ok, Ed001, thanks.

Saw him play once vs LFC last season at the Bridge and he is not an LB. He is a midfielder and played on the left wing that day.

N Red - As I said, I thought he was a left winger. I was browsing through the transfermarkt website looking at Robertson's value vis-a-vis others, and I came across Kenedy's name, and I remembered how well he played that game, against us. They list him as a left back. In any case, my mistake.

He is playing tonight if anyone wants to watch him.

Average winger who is having to convert to a left back to have a first team career at the top level. Doesn't mean he can't or won't though.

Isn't this Chelskis model though, converting wide midfielders into wing backs - good luck with that one by the way, although not like the place is awash with really good full backs anyway these days.
