When Romero returns as RCB I think Emersons defensive attributes might be more appreciated.
I can see Romero making runs into opposition half more than Sanchez or Tanganga which could leave us exposed with a less defensive wingback.
Emerson can definitely improve and I expect him to. He only just arrived and not even had a season so I'll allow him some time to adjust to prem
The case for Emerson..

Another reason why we should have got Conte in last summer rather than facking Nuno
=============================
He turned us down at that time?? He said he wasn't ready to take up another job so shortly after Inter.

Emerson has done reasinably well tbh
Only been few months, unlike those who are here still few years and not performing. He also had to adapt to a new language, new country and a new position.
He almost score against Chelsea, and was pushing forward a lot. He is trying and us fans should respect that!

Emerson is doing fine, he has hardly been at the club five minutes as well. It is some of the other wasters that have been at the club for years that need moving on.

He will get better. Give the lad some time. At least he is available unlike his argie mates.

Yeah give him time and i think with Romero, Dier back in the defence will help him.

Royal needs to improve his crossing and attacking play to be our RWB, he has made a few defensive errors but appears to be settling into the defensive side of things and is a steady enough defender. From an attacking perspective he is bang average (up to now).
We are well off at LWB, with Reg and Sess, but need similar on the other side, Doherty and Tanganga are not it.

Royal needs to work on timing his runs. He will learn this under s good coach.
Some of the best wing backs didn't have tricks but they new how to time their runs into space to be effective
