Personally hate the obsession with CBs at full back. Calafiori has moved inside and flourished because of it. Moving him back out to fullback sucks.

 

Part of current tactical shapes and plays. It'll faze out in time, but currently a shape where it's effectively 3-2 and something in front like 4-1 or 3-2 is the current trend. And in that back 3, it's better to have defenders that know how to defend to minimise the counter, with one of the full backs (or CBs) stepping into the midfield.

 

Not everyone will play it, and it they have their positives and negatives.

 

Arsenal will have some physical team. Feels a decent LW away from being some team, because you can get away with Havertz/Jesus as striker if the output is elite outwide.

 

Edit: They should go big for Kvaradona.

Wonder where it leaves Timber.

 

Coming back from the injury I guess they'll integrate him back in slowly. 

 

But he can fill in any of the back 4 positions, or in midfield.

I feel like Pep started doing this after years of getting knocked out the CL usually through goals on the transition / moments where individuals didn't defend well enough 

 

Madrid are probably the best example of doing the basics super well in that sense, they're always in the game and there's no one better at knockout football

Also a big help in set piece defending if you have 4 CBs there instead of 2 CBs and 2 usually smaller fullbacks. Man City is so much better than most teams that getting the variance of set pieces down becomes important.
