I have the inverted fb in fifa
BUT THEREāS A PROBLEMMMM ā JJ Bull 2023 šššššš
Antonio Conte did this with Chelsea really well and he played 5 at the back
Elite inverted fullbacks are so damn difficult to deal with too. A player like Zinchenko can literally be the difference between winning/losing/keeping possession/neutralising opponents etc. Itās a cheat code.
don't be morone I am ur loyal fan and I get dissapointed too much when you don't mention E10H name
He looks like weird barbie
Did you know… The way to stop YouTube shorts from looping is to swipe to the next video
Aoi Ashito did that, plus he's a playmaker
Fullbacks were always "Super Athletic"
āWhy managers like Guardiola and Artetaā¦ā – You mean Pep invented it and everyone else copied.
I just thought it was because they watched Ao Ashi
God loves you so repent of your sins and be baptized..He gave His life for you so that you could have forgiveness of sins and eternal life when He comes again..and remember to keep His sabbath day Holy which is Saturday
Roberto Carlos, Am I a joke to you??!!
Perfect formation
This is right. However, the age of inverted full backs is already dead
āInvertedā feels like the wrong word to describe āa fullback that moves inside as an extra central midfielderā considering āinvertedā is used for wingers that play on opposite wings than their main foot.
its so efficient distance for fullback to shift more to central midfield when in possesion and using their intelligence passes than making effort to far far away of opponent flank and just crosses there
Madridās being doing that was for a solid 6 years
It's all basics, you utilize the players you have. Don't force players to play something they can't do (not to confuse the idea of letting players grow) and they can give you an ability to be creative.
Mte that scotland top is outrageous I'd never be seen dead in that and I love my country so much that's one ugly strip
Havenāt full backs always done this? I played as a right back in the early 2000s and my job was to push up to allow the winger freedom lol
Everybody copying pep ok
But still the rival clubs using our tactics
Show us some respect
Pep used them first. Klopp and Arteta just copied him because it works. š
YES OF COURSE
