Porro (green) vs Kulusevski (blue) as winger

I’d love to see Porro play wing. Shame we didn’t get a chance to see it during pre-season. He looks more able to hold width over Deki, and his passing and crossing stats are *chef’s kiss*. Would he be able to better contain the likes of Rico Henry too?

CROSSES PER 90
Porro 6.56
Perišić 6.04
Nico Williams 5.21
Kulusevski 2.19
B Johnson 1.74

    I’d love to see us try it, Porro has looked so good going toward and his crossing is immense.

    I love Deki, but his first 6 months spoiled us and he hasn’t been able to recapture that form.

    Porro as a winger will give us something different and provide Kulusevski with some motivating competition.
