The news of Wijnaldum's return has been a lot of noise, especially whether he can return to Liverpool has become a major concern for many fans. Most fans are still optimistic about Wijnaldum's return, but what he can do and what role he can play after his return is the most important thing for the Dutch midfielder. In an interview with Former Wijnaldum team-mate Fabinho, he liked Thiago on the left, Henderson on the right, the chemistry of the three together was very good and Liverpool could also get more wins.
Fabinho's squad is the one that Liverpool has seen the most this season, with Thiago, Henderson and Fabinho's midfield combination, with Fabinho appearing at the back to plan and intercepting opponents' attacks. And this midfield combination has indeed helped Liverpool to bring a lot of improvement, their control of the midfield has been significantly enhanced, and the combination of Thiago and Fabinho's double back has also been a great success. The Spanish back is mainly responsible for the team's tandem attack, while Fabinho focuses more on the protection of the co-defense tandem, with each division of labor and crossover.
In contrast, when Wijnaldum played for Liverpool, the team's midfielder was more defensive and less likely to participate in the organization of the attack. On the one hand, although many people in the Liverpool squad at that time could organize the attack, the effect was not particularly good, at least not the place where they were best; on the other hand, Liverpool's two-wing flying tactic was not completely limited, and this style of play alone gave Liverpool the advantage in most games. Therefore, there are obvious differences in the arrangement of the two lineups.
Of course, this is not necessarily to divide the two players or two tactics, but the two styles need to adapt to different time nodes. In the current situation, Liverpool need players like Thiago to make their attacking methods more diverse, and if Wijnaldum returns, he can only exist as a substitute for the team, it is difficult to become the absolute main force of the team as in the previous season, unless there is a player in the midfield with serious injuries, otherwise he can not get many opportunities. If so, why should Wijnaldum return?
However, Liverpool's current midfield is not without hidden dangers, on the one hand, Thiago's health is their highest priority, once Thiago is injured, the current squad can not replace his role; on the other hand, Liverpool's midfield configuration is still too weak, need more young players to stand up and share the burden for Thiago, Henderson, Fabinho, otherwise in the case of multi-front combat, want to maintain the team's performance on all fronts. It is a very high requirement for the physical strength and strength of the players.
