Stuart, any idea for a proper LB for first team here? Maybe also a better formation since the current one is a bit too offensive.
Btw, Petr Kouba could at least be in reserves here IMO.

Well, Čtyřoký was a left back in the old style, and to be honest I don’t really see any other “modern” style full backs (a proper SB) that are better than those in the first team, most of their best defenders were from the 20s and 30s so that’s kind of unavoidable. It’s kind of like Uruguay for example, lots of great CBs but not so much SBs. Even Horňák, the only SB here, played often as a CB. I’ve seen Bielik play LB but I’m not sure if he’s good enough to displace anyone in the first team and as far as I’m aware he was actually a right back.

I’d put Čtyřoký in Steiner’s place in the formation and maybe you could put Košťálek in Kvašňák‘s place to balance the formation a bit more, I find the front 4 quite undroppable so it’s difficult to balance because of that.
