For a Back 3 to work you need a pivot this dynamic

Sofascore's U21 team of the year.

The most difficult phase of a 3-4-3 is the midfield pivot. Both cover so much ground as the fullbacks fly forward and the two 10s push up. The pivot has to be two absolute engines.

United lack that level of dynamic play in midfield. Casemiro and Erikson are simply too old.

[Mab Sidam @MabSidam]

Need a forward?

Europe's top 5 leagues have a wide range of finishers.

Mateo Retegui is having an excellent season in front of goal. Omar Marmoush has been in great form this season.

Some teams have many great forwards, others have one and some unlucky teams have none.

Adding further context;

Not every high volume passer can combine their passing with defensive production.Last season few like Toni Kroos matched Rodri as a high volume passer with above average defensive production.

Exequiel Palacios is a player that matches Rpdri's production.

[Mab Sidam @MabSidam]

Rodri was playing some of the best football by a midfielder in recent memory. Completing over 100 passes per game. Put him in rarified air with the likes of Toni Kroos.

Granit Xhaka had a tremendous season on ball as well.

Some expected names mixed in with some surprise names.

The most creative and elusive players in the Premier League listed below;

Abdul Fatawu Issahaku, Mohammed Kudus and Iliman Ndiaye are some of the league's most elusive and creative players.

The Premier League is full of so many talented wingers and midfielders.

[Mab Sidam @MabSidam]

The Premier League has been so exciting this season.

🔴League leaders Liverpool are flashy going forward but are helped by the best defense in the league.

⚪️Tottenham are producing at the same level as Manchester City and Chelsea.

🔵The relegation battle is heating up

Exequiel Palacios and Granit Xhaka were both the leading passers in the Bundesliga (the magic is in both being on the same team) shows how well Leverkusen kept the ball last season.

Angelo Stiller is a mirror of Joshua Kimmich(Stiller is a Bayern academy grad for good measure).

[Mab Sidam @MabSidam]

Grant Hill had a knee injury disrupt his career. It split his career into two halves, the first half as an explosive wing that could lead a team to the playoffs(Detroit Pistons) to the second half when he became a great rotational player on some exciting Phoenix Suns teams.

[Mab Sidam @MabSidam]

Travis Kelce is a HOF. A nine-time Pro Bowler and a seven-time All-Pro. He holds the record for most receiving yards by a tight end in a single season with 1,416 in 2020. Most overall seasons with 1,000 rec yards by a tight end

Kelce was named to the NFL 2010s All-Decade Team.

Alberto Moleiro (Las Palmas) is a diamond in the rough in my personal opinion.

➕An old-school CAM/#10 who gets by with elusive dribbling and an eye for a pass in the final 1/3rd.

➖Not really a defender or first-scoring option.

A special offensive talent who is only 21 Y/O

[Mab Sidam @MabSidam]

Jordan Teze(Monaco) is a Wing Back,who fulfills both the attacking duties of a winger and the defensive duties of a full back.They are seen up and down the wide positions on the pitch, looking to put in attacking play up the pitch, support the midfield and fall back into defense.

[Mab Sidam @MabSidam]

One of the breakout stars of last season Joao Neves is one of europe's best ball winning midfielders. Neves shines through his work rate and technical ability.

PSG have signed one of europe's most wanted prospects.

comp; Georginio Wijnaldum

[Mab Sidam @MabSidam]

João Neves(PSG) is a Ball Winning Midfielder

This type of midfielder has the main role of closing-down the opposition and winning the ball back with the press
Roles:
Support – The player will press higher, to win the ball and start counter-attacking or retaining possession.

[Mab Sidam @MabSidam]

Edon Zhegrova is one of the most underrated wingers in Europe;

Great at self-set-up for shots
Creative threat off the wing
Elusive and one of the best dribblers in the league

Comp; Marcus Edwards
