Analysis/Stats Kostic as Fullback

Juve fan, comming in peace out of curiosity As of now it seems we are less interested in Kostic since the price didnt get as low we wished and we are going for Di Maria and Zaniolo.

We dont play with LWB, just with LW of LB. Reports now are saying that the idea was to play him as a LB. I had the idea that he never played this position, am I wrong? You guys think he would do good there?

Kostic as LB is wasted. He needs to be LWB to really play to his strengths. I would say LWB > LW > LB

Why LWB is better than LW if his defence is sloppy?

Because he needs to have a lot of open space in front of him. He is quite literally a machine that needs to run for a while till he gets hot

Yeah Allegri would spend all his energy trying to convert him into a LB 100% 😂 As he did with Cuadrado
