Don't think we've tried that one yet, have we. Maybe that's where we've been going wrong :-\

And he promptly reveals himself to be the goal-scoring false full back we needed but didn't know we had!

We have Zinchenko. He must be a false full back because he certainly isn't a real one :-)

lol. Right. That's why they call them "inverted" nowadays; it's Political Correctness gone mad, if you must know. Nonsense.

Wouldn't have happened in the old days. Midfield formations were practically set in stone: You had one chap who could shoot, the "Attacking midfielder." Another who could tackle who was called the Defensive Midfielder. Added to one headless chicken-type with a good engine who played box-to-box, there was always the fourth who had failed to master any of these roles so was named "Captain".

When football was football, see.
