Basically he lacks speed and composure

Elanga is rapid, Kerkez isnt the only player in the division who'd lose a footrace against that lad. Agree with the composure comment though, he actually gets himself into some very good positions but his crossing/final ball is terrible, i guess we were spoilt with having Trent and Robbo for so long.

Agreed about Elanga being rapid but if we will play with a high press then Kerkez is not rapid enough and we will get burned all season by counterattack aimed at his side. Frimpong on the other hand despite his limitations is rapid. Virgil has lost a step and will need a pacy backup on his side of the pitch.

These fullbacks fill be with no confidence. Hopefully Iraola can work and get more out of them but neither look good enough to be at us.
