Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been brilliant as the farthest right centre-back of four for Manchester United. Is Pep Guardiola getting credit for Erik ten Hag’s idea?after Manchester United’s FA Cup semi-final triumph over Brighton, eulogising – as everyone always has done – over the go-go gadget legs of Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
He’s delivered 0.18 crosses into the penalty area per game this season – the same as Southampton’s Mohammed Salisu . Even full-backs deemed to be as defensive as Wan-Bissaka cross the ball more frequently – Tyrick Mitchell ; Seamus Coleman – while Big Seven counterparts Ben White , Reece James , Kieran Trippier , Trent Alexander-Arnold and Pedro Porro do so significantly more often.
And with Guardiola something of a trend-setter in the Premier League, this latest evolution could be ideally suited to Wan-Bissaka and Manchester United. Although, it could be contended that Guardiola’s disregard for full-backs was Ten Hag’s idea all along.
