So yes it is stupid. Plus as keep saying - where does he play? As a 10? Nkunku is better and Cole is a good shout for there. Maresca’s winger stay high and wide to provide the width. He isn’t a natural winger so another poor fit given he tends to try and play in the pockets. Edited August 14, 2024 by OneMoSalah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, that actually suits Neto a lot as it allows him to isolate his fullback in 1 on 1s a lot more easier because usually with fullbacks tucked infield the opposite either wide man follows them creating those sort of passing opportunities for the winger or lets them go and we have another man in MF. Cole also has shown he can do this role starting a lot wider but I do think we may see him more centrally eventually with Maresca if he implements this inverted fullbacks and wingers high and wide.

I fully agree on Mudryk, but I'm not sure I see that much difference between (our) Sterling and Felix. They both seem to go hot and cold even within the same match. Felix is a lot younger tho, so there is always that hope he turns a corner. Tbf, Felix is the more skillful player for sure... relies less on pace. Actually wish Felix were a bit quicker tbh.
