Aaron Wan-Bissaka - The Misunderstood

Facts:

- His crosses are poor
- He rarely shoots, and his last attempt was so off-target it might have ended up in the throw-in
- He struggles with aerial balls (but which fullback excels in the air?)

Also facts:

- He's one of the best defenders you need in big games, even outperforming Kyle Walker in high-stakes matches
- Kyle Walker is considered the best right-back in the league, yet he plays for attacking Manchester City and may go the entire season without a goal or assist, but still receives praise for his defensive work
- Wan-Bissaka is criticized for similar contributions, despite doing them better

Wan-Bissaka may not deliver great crosses, but he:

- Consistently moves the ball forward
- Plays with attackers and holds possession
- Rarely loses possession
- Makes runs that drag opposition players out of position, freeing up space for other attackers

Example: Manchester United's second goal vs Manchester City in the FA Cup final - Wan-Bissaka's run dragged two City players away from Fernandes, allowing him to play a perfect pass for Kobbie Mainoo to score

Don't soil Wan-Bissaka's name just because he doesn't fit the modern full-back mold. He might not be your starter, and Manchester United might sell him, but recognize his strengths. And give him his flowers.

The future of Manchester United are in safe hands 💪🙌

Endrick was asked who was better, Neymar Jr or Jude Bellingham and Endrick replied Bellingham. Thiago Silva on social media found his answer amusing.
