Petar Sukačev (2005): A Fullback Hiding in Plain Sight (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Finding a naturally left-footed fullback is one of the hardest jobs in modern recruitment. That’s why more clubs are converting wingers and midfielders into the role. The technical, attacking qualities are already built-in. Modern defensive positioning can be coached, but (recovery) pace and genuine defensive combativeness are hardwired in a player's DNA. If those physical and psychological foundations aren't already there, the conversion fails.Petar Sukačev caught my eye against Crvena zvezda.
