Robin van Persie assessed that a central defender must have qualified passing skills. It is undeniable that many clubs have begun to build attacks from center-backs who can pass to midfielders or directly feed into the heart of the opponent’s defense.
“Harry Maguire should be able to go up a little higher. It’s tough for him, but it provides more options for his other colleagues,” said van Persie.
“But maybe, that’s not a strategy used by Manchester United,” concluded van Persie, who once defended Manchester United from 2012 to 2015 with one Premier League champion.
