Spence is actually a decent (defensive) RB

just no great shakes going forward.

I don#t really understand all the "crisis at right back" talk tbh. Spencer is a full back. He's right footed. Tuchel chose to take him, so presumably rates him.

He only played at LB for Spurs because Porro had the RB position nailed down - he joined them as a RB.

But Tuchel does sometimes talk as if Quansah (who's a CB) is his first choice as RB in the absence of James. It's all a bit weird.

        Yeah, it's odd that Quansah, who has rarely played RB (NCFC) - jamesward, Jul 1, 09:25:57
        
        Sure. It's just that people talk as if we don't actually have a fit natural RB. We do. (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Jul 1, 09:41:17
