The only problem with that is Baines. Having a touchline-hugger at LM makes it difficult to involve Leighton. You really need someone who cuts inside.
This is true.

This generally leads me to question the way they're marketing Oviedo on the OS.
He's only 22 but Baines has surely got at least another 4 years in him, bearing in mind just how fit he keeps himself. That's a long time to wait to be first choice.
I can only really see him being cover. I'd like to see Pienaar central but someone like Mirallas would be a better LM then, as he can cut in.
Bryan is young enough to adapt to this at times.
It may also mean we are not as reliant on Baines over-lapping to get the ball in, so a bit of pressure is off Baines.
Nice to have the options.
He's going to be a midfielder more than a full back, and i see him playing a role when Pienaar goes to the ACON for sure.

That's what I think might happen as well, but it's not ideal for Baines.
Could play on the right and come inside.
Is the correct answer.

Crossed my mind -- well cut inside rather than erm... *ahem
But he's never played on the right has he? He's spent his entire career hugging the touchline; that's not really an easy swap.
Not to sure mate, I've never seen him play, seems that he's an offensive though and Davey likes his wrong footed wingers on the flanks!
To say nothing of playing people out of position...

I keep forgetting we signed this guy, and wondering where he is going to fit in.
A good squad player if nothing else.

He looked lightining fast in the 5 mins he played today...
Could we actually have two wide players with pace?
