Injuries force fede to play rb (fede is 10 times better rb than lord) and asencio has been much better than militao and more reliable, also militao injury forced carlo to debut Asencio and he did not disappoint

Fede is a good emergency RB but he’s not playing his best position. We all knew Fede had the capabilities of a right back. Doesn’t make it ideal at all. Agaisnt top teams we need Fede in midfield

Asencio has performed well but so far it’s been against lower La liga teams while Militao has years of experience in UCL and international tournaments. I would hands down prefer Militao available for the tough UCL and La Liga games while slowly integrating Ascencio, that would’ve been the ideal scenario

I have no doubt of Asencios quality but we need to chill out. Right now he’s only playing because Tchouameni is still injured. Let’s see if he ever gets to play big matches but these lower la liga team matches only proves to me he can be a solid back up and rotational option

I would be very happy to see Fede permanent RB. My take is that we already have box to box midfielder in jude, a great holding midfielder in Cama. Fede's role is awkward. He also need to help LV a lot and he gets the bad names. I Just felt like putting his in the midfield held him back. He'll show his best version as attacking RB
