Wide Attacking Threat

Integration of Defensive Roles

Winger and Inside Forward Roles
A Winger and an Inside Forward on the same flank can conflict in space utilization, affecting wingers’ effectiveness.

Adjust one midfielder to a more defensive role to strengthen the central area and provide better coverage.

Evaluate the synergy between the Winger and Inside Forward roles to maximize width and reduce crowding.
Enhanced Defensive Structure
