Will the defensive midfielder be gradually eliminated in modern football? Will it be difficult for them to survive in football in the future?

Compared with the front midfielder, the back midfielder is a role that is not easy to be abandoned. No matter what type of midfielder, organizational or defensive type they are, they will be of great help to the team.

Even if you sometimes feel unacceptable and do not perform well when you come to a new team, as long as you have the right team and have tactics, you can play a role immediately.

For example, Paligna, the current star of Tottenham Hotspur playing football.

Portugal star Palinia is still very representative. He gradually became famous in Fulham and was bought by Bayern in the Bundesliga. He is full of energy, outstanding interception, and being able to run is his characteristic. He can be seen everywhere on the field and is everywhere.

He has performed well in the past two years and is also known as the representative of an excellent defensive midfielder.

I thought he would be able to adapt quickly after coming to the Bundesliga, but unfortunately he lost his way under Kompany's system. Due to the environment and tactical differences, he seemed very uncomfortable in the Bundesliga. He was not as good as in Fulham's period, and his interception and defense success rate also declined a lot.

Of course, this is also related to his injury. When he came to Bayern, he had a torn muscle fiber of the adductor muscle and right leg. He had a few weeks off, which made his condition fluctuate.

But to be fair, after watching the game carefully, you will still find that Paligna is a little uncomfortable and is incompatible with the Bayern system.

Due to limited role, Bayern was helpless and had to let him rent it to Tottenham, which also included a buyout clause of 30 million euros. The intention is also to see if Palignia can still play a role.

Judging from his return to the Premier League, he is undoubtedly more free to play in this field.

The style of playing with big openings and closes is fast, and the team's tactical space is also relatively fast, which is suitable for players who have strong running and interception skills and like to defend.

No surprise, I think that after the end of the season, Tottenham Hotspurs will likely buy him out. He is still worth the money. If Bayern can also follow the flow, stop the loss in time, and try to recover some losses.

In addition, regarding whether the defensive midfielder will be gradually eliminated in modern football, I originally talked about the topics of Marklele and Kanter, that is, there are actually not many pure defensive midfielders now, and the mainstream direction will be "comprehensive" and "multifunctional" players.

will develop rapidly with Manchester City's Rodri as a benchmark.

Why do you say that the midfielder will develop in this direction in the future? If fans watch the game frequently, they will definitely feel that the tactical styles arranged by the coach are becoming more and more diverse, and it is rarely said that they have fixed formations and routines to play.

What kind of 433 formation will not exist.

As the players' physical fitness increases, the number of games increases and the frequent injuries, many giant teams have undergone many tactical changes. Systems such as three defenders and four defenders are changing frequently.

Fullbacks are drawn in and central defenders become the core of the organization. In order to cope with the crisis caused by multi-line combat and the wounded, the giant teams will have different plans in the process of tactical arrangement.

There are Plan A, Plan B and even Plan C, and the coach’s use of players is also versatile.

It is possible that in this game, you can play the right back in the next game, and then in the next game, it is hard to say that the player will play a certain position.

The small and medium-sized teams are not under great pressure for single-line combat, and the player rotation will be relatively small. However, when the giants fight on multiple lines, the changes in formation and tactics will change continuously.

This will also make it increasingly difficult for single-function players to survive in giants.

Palinia's poor playing at Bayern is certainly due to the injury environment, and it is also related to the lack of multi-tactic adaptability, which will also exist.

But no matter what, having a back midfielder who can defend and has strong interception ability is better than not having a back midfielder. Teams such as Chelsea and other teams, Mourinho always uses Marklele, Essin and others at his peak. The forward team is luxurious, with Drogba and Robben. There are still people who are willing to do dirty work and tiring work on the defensive end. The importance of

defense will be particularly critical on the football field. Without a midfielder, not scoring a goal can at least guarantee a draw; but if the defense is not good and cannot catch up after concealing the ball, then you may lose the game and lose it miserably.

Therefore, for future football trends, I think the defensive midfielder will not be eliminated, but will "evolve" and evolve into more and more functional and diverse tactics.

The giant teams will be eager for such midfielders to appear.
