If Liverpool contacted us tomorrow to say we could have Neco Williams on loan, do you think we wouldn't use him on the left given that we selected Ng and Bacuna there at times last season - would you select Joe Ralls at left wing back in front of Williams if he came here?
I notice that you didn't answer the question. Can you name any very good Championship left-backs who are right-footed?

Ng played well for us at right-wing-back, but I though that he was less effective as a left-wing-back. Bacuna is a mediocre right-back and an even worse left-back. Full-back/wing-back seems to be a position where it's more important to pick left-footed/right-footed players in their natural positions.

By the way, Neco Williams was replaced at half-time in the only game that he has started at left-back for Liverpool.
