That was more for player fitness I think or just some random experient. I really wouldnt even class him as a left back in all honesty.

Kept saying this at the time, we should've gone for him instead of Papa when the moves were basically linked.

Good news is now that he’s at Dortmund, Mislintat will notice him.

The impact Scott Parker has had on Calum Chambers' resurrection in central midfield at Fulham
The Arsenal loanee has transformed himself into one of the best performers at the club
Calum Chambers has revitalised himself at Fulham in recent weeks in a new midfield role under Claudio Ranieri - with Scott Parker the brains behind his resurrection.
The Arsenal loanee struggled at first after making the move from north London to west in the summer and was in and out of the side under former boss Slavisa Jokanovic courtesy of some pretty dire performances.
He struggled massively at centre half against Watford and was torn apart at right back in Cardiff, but Chambers has shown mental strength to come back from those performances and flourish in a central midfield role he first played at Liverpool in Jokanovic's last game.
Since then, he's made the position his own with a strong showing against Southampton in Ranieri's first victory before putting in a man of the match performance in the Chelsea defeat at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
Chambers has come a long way from that performance in South Wales in October, but Ranieri has revealed how it was Parker, the former Tottenham Hotspur man, who convinced him that the Arsenal loanee was able to play in midfield.
Ahead of the visit of Leicester City, Ranieri said: "I spoke with Scott Parker and he told me he could play there and I believe he is very good. He’s intelligent and it’s good for the team and for me.
"Collectively, he links very well with the defensive line and the forwards and he has good movement, he is attentive."
