Newcastle United Tactics: Why Matthias Jaissle Doesn't Play a Number 10

RecentNews.uk

Newcastle team sheets list a number 10, but the tactical reality is entirely different.

Yoane Wissa and Joe Willock function as auxiliary centre-forwards rather than playmakers.

The out-of-possession shape resembles a 4-4-2 while attacking phases shift to a 3-1-6.

Future transfer targets may not fit the traditional number 10 mould if Jaissle keeps his current system.

Should Newcastle United sign a traditional playmaker in January?
