He's a specialist RB (the only one at the club?) who did very well in his PL debut at Liverpool I remember (two season ago). He's also greatly impressed in the reserves and wherever he's played on loan.
I do have some big question marks over Isla being played at RB. He's a wing-back by trade and for me this is a big weakness in our team, when playing a flat back 4. He's good going forward but defensively we were once again exposed in that area tonight by Adam Johnson (who's not even on form) who got the better of Isla on several occasions before putting in dangerous crosses.
Another position where HR left us unforgivably short.
