I know what you're getting at Celestis but I feel the importance of having elite wingers with 1-on-1 destruction capabilities should not be underestimated.
We have especially lacked that at Arsenal and I was always envious of Man U when they had Giggs. I don't think any other winger in England came close for about 15 years. A big reason component of Fergie's success was he always had exceptional wide players.
It's those tight games that get congested through the centre where we will really feel the benefit of Nelson if he fulfils anything like the potential he is showing right now.
I agree on his defensive work. I especially like the way he knows how to use his body effectively to shield the ball and is tactically aware.
Yeah think he is one of those whose starting position is on the wing but has "License" to go where he can affect the game or at least eventually he will be .
