title: “Lee Kang-in, please write as a MF!”

French media also criticized the appointment of coach Luis Enrique for Lee Kang-in’s appointment as a winger, which is difficult to understand.

French media Le Parisien pointed out PSG’s sluggishness on the 21st (Korea Standard Time) and insisted that Lee Kang-in should be built as a midfielder to play a creative role in assembling the attack.

PSG has yet to win since the opening of the Ligue 1 in the 2023/24 season. PSG, newly headed by Luis Enrique, failed to break a 1-1 tie against Toulouse in the second round of the league at Stade de Toulouse on the 20th. Kylian Mbappe scored the first goal of a penalty kick in the 17th minute of the second half, but allowed his opponent Zakaria Abukral to equalize the penalty kick in the 43rd minute of the second half.

Lee Kang-in also started as a left striker following the opening match against Lorien. In midfield, Fabian Ruiz, Manuel Ugart, Warren Zaire-Emery stepped up.

In the 12th minute of the first half, Lee Kang-in relieved Toulouse’s defensive pressure through a connection with Gonzalo Hamus, and Lee Kang-in connected a short pass to Ugarte in front of the penalty box. Ugarte’s cross toward the far post flew at Hakimi’s head, but it landed a little further and failed to lead to a shot.

Lee Kang-in attempted to break through the attack path with a cross using a long run kick. In the 17th minute of the first half, Lee Kang-in, who caught the ball in a relatively large space with Vitina’s conversion pass, attempted a sharp left-footed cross to Hamus in the penalty box instead of dribbling, but was unfortunately blocked by the opponent’s defense.

In the 23rd minute of the first half, a cross by dedicated kicker Lee Kang-in almost hit Shkliniar’s head but was blocked by a defender. With the corner kick attempted again, Zaire-Emery and defenders, who were rushing in, overlapped and flowed to the other side.

Even in the midst of the frustrating PSG attack, Lee Kang-in created a threatening scene by stealing possession from the Toulouse defenders in the attack area with strong forward pressure. Lee Kang-in, who took the ball in front of the Toulouse penalty box in the 34th minute of the first half, attempted a pass into the penalty box after breaking through a short dribble, but his teammates in front of the goal did not receive it.

Even at the end of the first half, Lee Kang-in tried to solve the frustrating attack by shooting. In the 44th minute of the first half, when Lee Kang-in received the ball from the right side of the penalty box, he tried to shoot with his left foot without delay. Eventually, he was replaced by Kylian Mbappe in the 6th minute of the second half.

In this game, Lee Kang-in played a relatively short 51 minutes with a warning before leaving the ground. It also showed flashes in the attack with a pass success rate of 79% (15/19), 2 opportunities created, 1 shot, and 2 successful ball competitions.

However, throughout the pre-season and regular season, it was the first game he played as a left winger after joining PSG, so he showed an awkward appearance in position and movement. was also cut off.

The media said, “Coach Enrique and coaches want Lee Kang-in to be PSG’s playmaker,” adding, “To achieve this, Lee Kang-in must be located between the left and the center to create a creative scene.”

The space between the left and center represents the left central midfielder’s position in the 4-3-3 formation, which is often defined as the “Mezala” position and role, is most frequently used by midfielders with aggressive talents in modern football, and is Lee Kang-in’s best place for accurate passes or direct box hits.

Currently, it is difficult to play as a left winger like Lee Kang-in. Since there is no target striker like Veda Murriti like Mallorca, Lee Kang-in’s role in delivering accurate passes from a space below seems to be needed to take advantage of Hamus, Mbappe, and Usman Dembele’s offense.
