Funnily enough I think that’s why they work best as a 3. Alzate finds them in higher positions which allows the other central midfielder to get in the box. How longs it been since Slater missed a glorious chance which he seemed to do every game early doors under Selles?
That’s because he’s had the goals coached out of him. Our main goal threat is Kamara and Gelhardt heading in crosses to the back post. Anything else is too risky and leaves potential for teams to counter us.
