He is not a LB

He is not a LB

We don't play with a natural LB anymore. We play with a back three where the left CB spot is occupied by a left-footed CB (Ake or Laporte). Even when Cancelo was playing, he would move into midfield to form a double pivot with Rodri or Gundo. That's why he would create so many chances and make key passes - he was only behind KDB for these metrics.

Laporte might be solid in the summer, that's why Pep wants another left-footed CB, because Ake would be the only one left.

The pursuit of Cuccurela proves that we're on the lookout for a fullback who can play an inverted role as a central midfielder and not an out-and-out fullback.

 

[Keeper!]

Yes please Txiki, this guy is special.

 

[FantasyIreland]

He is not a LB

He plays the position brilliantly quite regularly.

In our squad,he'd be a huge asset.

[Zenmanc]

He is not a LB

Neither is Cancelo at least not a natural one

 

[WallyA]

For what we require from our LB, he would do the job brilliantly.

 

[kupest]

Neither is Cancelo at least not a natural one

He is still a fullback though who could attack at LB.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

I'd imagine we'd be paying well over the odds, what with it being the 30th of January and them being due to play us in a couple of weeks.
