Watching Poulsen at the World Cup showed where he is good and bad, in the tighter games he showed how good he was at covering in midfield. When they went a couple of goals down to Japan he ended up trying to play as a playmaker and he just can't do it, he can play it simple but he was just hitting balls up to the striker and misplacing through balls, he is a good option as a protecting midfielder if we use him that way.
