I’ve been thinking of the progress of Tanganga recently and wondered where he fits in the team moving forward.
A centre back by trade, Jose has played him at right back or on the right of a back three.
I’m not so sure that he will get game time at centre back anytime soon, although he has put in some very good performances at right back they have been in a defensive capacity rather than an attacking one. My opinion is that either Aarons or Lamptey or preferably both should be recruited to rotate in the right back role. Along with Reguilon and Sessegnon rotating at left back, that would give us four young, exciting, attacking fullbacks.
I wonder then if Tanganga might prove useful in a defensive midfield role a-la Declan Rice who also played youth football at centre back.
Japhet is decent on the ball, he doesn’t rush into tackles, he’s a strong boy, who holds his own and I think he could do a job protecting the back four as a back up for Hojbjerg next season. A bit like when Ledley played there earlier on in his career.
