Jose Mourinho’s plan of attack in Son Heung-Min’s absence
By Gary Pearson
3. Last but not least
Moura fits in as the lone front man, though I believe wholeheartedly he’s much more effective attacking from the right. Lo Celso is in his anointed central midfield role and
, who is scheduled to return to the lineup soon, will attack from the right. Bergwijn is extremely threatening attacking from the left. However, it’s still unclear whether it’s his preferred position.
You’ll notice Eric Dier isn’t included in any of these teams. Personally, I feel Ndombele is above him in the pecking order. Though Mourinho might utilize Dier for the defensive qualities he brings to the pitch, I hope the Englishman starts to prove Mourinho right for selecting him. As many others are starting to give up on him.
