The Athletic reporter Rob Tanner pointed out the importance of Jannik Vestergaard and his push forward, that opened the Birmingham brick wall in the 87th minute, that in the end resulted in a Stephy Mavididi header goal. This is of course one crucial point to look at as it in real shows how the salt and pepper in a perfect balance should be added to the Enzoball project.
This run forward in the middle of the field, breakes the rules of the pattern and also makes it fluid in a totally different manner, as it gives the special individual touch that makes it all bubbling, adding freedom to a project that at times looks a bit locked.
Jannik Vestergaard to have skills with the ball and on it, that few others in European football can copy, as he has a marvelous pass and also a magnificant shot, as some might remember from him testing Kasper Schmeichel during a Denmark pre-match, warming up.
He is also one that makes those fond memories of the Franz Beckenbauer’s, Ruud Krol’s and Franco Baresi’s coming into mind, as masters in the back, handling the ball with highly passing skills and marking down the opponent with fantastic positioning.
As we could see against Birmingham, this is a clear weapon to use when you are stuck in other ereas, and hopefully we will see Jannik Vestergaard also showing his ability to make that perfect shot, would be fantastic.
He will with the self confidence coming back to him, be able to this if needed and it could that special key to a direct promotion, as this is one ability of his, and hopefully it will be room giving him more freedom to go forward and upset the opponent.
Jannik Vestergaard is no converted midfielder as he is seen as a traditional central defender, but his passes is up there alongside players mentioned in the chapters above. Today we have no libero position in a team, as the game in real have been developed and the game have changed with the goalkeeper floor passing as well as having a game at a much higher tempo.
Jannik Vestergaard posess those passing skills of the old grand masters, and see him pushing forward makes it all a lot more exciting to watch, as he hopefully will continue to do so.
