Federico Chiesa - AM RL, SS - Fiorentina (18 Viewers)

[DanielSz]

The question is whether he can bring his level up a bit yet as his current one won't set Europe on fire.

Wingers that scored at least 10 goals and had at least 9 assists last season, by league

Serie A
Kulusevski
Berardi
Chiesa

Premier League
Salah
Mahrez
Son

Bundesliga
Sancho
Gnabry

La Liga
Messi
Oyarzabal

Ligue 1
None

I mean.....that looks like a pretty good level to me.

Not that I disagree with the point you're making, but he did play mostly up front last season.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

He played RM you are right but it is still far from the position he should find himself in

Agree. I hope we play him as AM behind Ronaldo and Dybala.

only on a lineup sheet. His heatmap showed he spent most of his time on the wing.

Sure, both him and Ribery moved allover the pitch, but playing as forwards still relieved them from any defensive duties.

and how is that different than any other guy on that list?

 

[alexjuventino]

So like is this happening or not? It's like weird feels like it is but it isn't

 

[CrimsonianKing]

Berna 2.0?

Apart from Messi those guys played as wingers, meaning their defensive duty was to mark the oppositions fullback. Many of them play in much better teams than Chiesa though so their teams overall had to do less defending.

Looks like he did plenty of tracking back last season.

Berna 2.0?

Don't think so

Berna is one of a kind snowflake. Chiesa seem to be way more mentally resilient

As I already said in the majority of games where he played as a forward he didn't have such defensive responsibilities. In the games he played as RW he obviously did.

 

[Hydde]

Last game against inter he was deployed very defensively minded and I think hevdid well

Playing in wing back position is tough my friend ....

if Chiesa , assuming he will occupy that position , his definitive skills are below the bar , we can find the new Cancelo here !

I can see Chiesa as RW pushing Kulu into Dybala's ...and pushing Dybala out of the club ...

remember Barca are looking for new forward ...maybe him ...

one way we balance the books and another we replaced him....i can see the management pulling this

if ..if we really interested in Chiesa

He *technically* started as a forward 70% of the time last season. So he was either going fucking mental defensively the other 30% of the time, or he was pretty much a winger the whole season, that was only a forward by label.

But it’s not a wingback how Conte uses them.
As said many times we defend in 442, Danilo will be the right back and Chiesa the RM.

Being a forward doesn't mean that you need to be glued up top. Take a look at Dybala for example he moves to the right-wing and drops deep quite regularly. However it does free you from having to run that flank up and down as your defensive assignment usually is one of the CBs.
