The very best players (especially those whose game isn’t pace dependant) tend to get moved inside so they can have more influence on the game.I dunno I think Saka is a RW. I'm not saying he couldn't play in other positions but when you look at his game it's not dependent on great physical attributes or pace.
I don't think you change something that's not broken.
Maybe you move him infield in his 30's.... Hopefully he's still here by then anyway.
If Saka was a strong shooter or a wide forward type I’d keep him on the right but his best attributes are his ability to link up, progress the ball and cross. On paper he’d be better in a central attacking role where he can drift to either side of the pitch depending on the situation, especially for his crossing. There’s a reason why KDB and Trent tend to pull out to the right to cross. Those out swingers are much easier to attack. How often have we seen our players fluff a lovely inswinging cross from Saka?
Anyway the point isn’t that he needs to play there now, it’s more an address to the weirdos who have decided to take it as some sort of insult.
