For selecting a coach who is so stubbornly committed to a system wholly dependent on wingbacks, our approach to recruiting them is mystifying.
It's weird seeing Amorim want to salvage Musah, and unless you'd want to put in the major work to get him to play as a CM properly, I'd imagine trying him at wingback would be the easiest thing to do. Try it, at least. If you're going to try unconventional picks, like Chuk, why not try Chuk at LWB so that he doesn't have to constantly cut to his left, like at Fulham?
Why haven't we been doing work on wingbacks in the transfer market? Okay, Redbird move in silence (supposedly), we don't know anything, great. The season is starting soon and we don't really have wingbacks, and when that's our biggest issue... going back to last year.
Links with Zalewski? Nice. From what I've seen of the kid, he's been good, especially at Roma, but who knows?
Otherwise, it looks like we're going to be leaning into the whole asymmetrical 3421, where our LWB sits back more and the RWB is more advanced, while the LAM is more of a LW and the RAM is more of a true AM or SS.
There is still a gap between our CM unit and our attacking line, and that will be exploited, and has been during preseason.
