If we can't find a RB would everyone be happy with Valencia for another Season?

He has our highest % of passed completed - 89, He is our 4 best performer this season (According to Squawka) and with enough training he could get his positioning better?

Personally i'd buy a new RB but it is nowhere near the top of our 'priority list'as people keep suggesting.

He is a great professional for Manchester United. But stats don't help much in this case. He is not by nature a defender, and a defender above all else, is one who spots danger quickly. Half a second and it is too late. I am not sure training can make up for that at this stage in his career. And going forward, his crossing has not been good, and he is not creative.

Have to agree with zidaniel on this one. Going forward he gives nothing, you can be sure he'll pass back once he get the ball in forward position rather than cross it ( this can tell you why he has the best % of completed passes). Defensively he loses his man all the time on set pieces which most of the times result in goals, he doesn't have the positioning sense even in normal play. He can only track back quickly and occasionally stop the crosses but once the ball is in the box he has no idea where to be and what to do. I think its about time he should move on to some other league and we make some money now, otherwise he might end up at some place like Sunderland in a couple of seasons and we might get peanuts for him.

Valencia is an awful right back . can't defend nor can attack. I won't be able to see him play again in that position

Good professional, awful right back.

No wonder his passing stats are so high, he knocks the ball infield to his centre back or to Herrera. Not exactly difficult.

Valencia is out of position for nearly all the goals we concede down out right hand side. He always gets sucked in field as he did against Chelsea for Hazard's goal.

Good back up, good professional - nothing more.

Assessed Valencia several times in the season

A powerful runner , quick and direct. Positionally poor in defence and at the other end his crossing rarely ends in anything.

One thing to add is that Valencia played for Equador in the centre of midfield and his powerful runs were better than wide. Useful back up but that is it now.
