alistair Left wing would imply a 4-4-2. He’s starting on the left of a three like Wirtz
No it doesn’t imply that ffs - what in the actual fuck are you on about?!?!
The wide player in a 433 is still a winger. You can also call them a wide forward but to say it’s one but not the other is splitting hairs - it’s the player on the left side of the attack. At Pool there’s nothing wrong with calling Díaz or Jota the left wingers.
And if that player for us today isn’t Foden then who is it? We’re going to leave the left sode completely empty.
