Out of necessity to start 2019, Adrian Heath introduced a strange wrinkle to Minnesota United’s attack: the centrally inverting left wing played by Rasmus Schuller. In that role, the Finnish midfielder would ostensibly occupy the opposition’s right full back, but would also sit behind the point of play to provide an outlet if pressure centrally failed to materialize, as well as to gird against counterattacks. From a defensive perspective, it helped somewhat – the chances Minnesota gave up against Vancouver and San Jose were speculative or from set plays – but it didn’t spark much by way of offense, with Schuller only providing two key passes and three shots in the three games he played at left wing.
