It's going to be very interesting to see how he does at left wing. One of Nelson's best qualities is his ball carrying in transition, so I've always wondered if a slightly deeper role could suit him; he played a fair bit of football at 10 and even CM for the U23s. So the question he has to answer is can he face up Premier League right backs, work a yard and consistently get quality passes and crosses into the box. And he should be able to threaten goal too regularly from that side.

Sancho favours the right wing, like Pepe. Don't think we'll be in for him.
Trust me, Sancho is far too good a passer and playmaker to play on the right wing, trying to get on the outside and put crosses in.
He's always played from the left in youth football too.
