It’s a weird position, I guess. It feels like where you stick full backs who can’t defend, or players who weren’t good enough to be a winger.
We’ve had success with it on two occasions (Conte and Tuchel). That was with Marcos Alonso, Victor Moses and Ben Chilwell.
Just thinking of the other teams who use it successfully. There’s Leverkusen, with Frimpong who can’t defend and isn’t good enough to be a winger.. but is rapid. And Inter, Di Marco and Grimaldo are both unathletic, slow, can’t keep up with wingers defensively, but have a lot of quality on the ball (as long as they haven’t had to do any running).
Which leaves the Scottish Equalizer, Denzel Dumfries. He’s someone who seems made for it and is getting better with age. Maybe he could be an option? Inter always have to sell.
As for other options. How did Aramburu look for Sociedad? He’s supposed to be good. Rensch at Roma plays RWB and has looked incredible. They only signed him from Ajax in January, think they only paid something like £3m for him.
Oh, and how could I forget! Andrei Ratiu. 6’2, runs all day, quicker than Mbappe. I think Barcelona want to replace Kounde with him, so he might not be cheap.
