I think playing Toby in the middle of the park would limit his time on the ball and would hurt his ability to play his diagnals that he is so good at.Sanchez can play anywhere on the 2/3, His ability to recover gives him scope. Sticking Toby in that position gives us great scope for distribution from the middle of the park and gives us range, right in there, that we normally have. Just have him sit there in front of Sanchez and Verts.
I think it will help us stabilise at Wembley in this particular game.
Toby is also extremely savvy and disciplined, positionally. There's no reason to not be able to stretch Dortmund with our FBs and FL/FR.and still have stability centrally back there between sanchez, toby and verts.
Sanchez can play the RCB role, but at the moment I'd like for him to stay strictly in his central defensive destroyer role, so he can focus on keeping simple in posession and being a physical beast dominating in the air and being the last defender.
