It’s one of the main advantages of the inverted FB in transition and high press. But once you’re back in established defense the FB falls back to position and one of the 8’s goes down into that position.
I hope they’re working on that with ESR though, seems like he should have the physical attributes for it. As you said his skills seems like a natural fit for the LCM at least in offense. And considering Arteta sent him on when we were chasing Chelsea, I’d assume he trusts him in that part of the pitch.
