This is not some excuse for Ole because the time for that is finished but when something is wrong - something is wrong and too many of our fans seem to now know what kind of player Van De Beek is.
VDB is not a midfielder he is a raumdeuter (however you spell that). He tries to get in to the half spaces in attackers positions where defenders dont analyse his movement.
He is an attacking midfielder who is a goalscorer like Thomas Muller. Just because he can play as a CM doesn't mean he is good at it or it is his best position. Muller has also played in midfield but he plays better further up the pitch.
Ole has bought two attacking midfielders. All the deeper midfielders are Mourinho players. When VDB plays deeper in midfielder he ends up with the same weakness as pogba but with less of the creativity. He is regarded to weak to play with only one of Fred or Mctominay and he is not creative enough to play over Pogba with Matic. His numbers are not as good as Bruno's for his usual higher up role.
He is supposed to play to get further up the pitch, not deep in a double pivot.
