24 - Eric García

I don't think Garcia is on another level as a RB, his offensive movements are still basic and in most games he played there was when his opponents lacked a speedy winger against him.

In midfield he is decent in double pivot, where he doesn't have to control the game or anything.

I still think CB is his best position atm, but versatility is helping him to develop as a player and his overall game is improving.

Plenty of shorter CB benefited from that, guys like Puyol, Ramos, Marquinhos played a lot as RB while Marquez rotated between midfield and defense.

He is more reliable, mainly in his touch and circulation of possession. Which would be incredibly important if you have Woj and Araujo triangling with him.

But with Joan back and Cubarsi at RCB we can probably cushion Kounde back into form. Especially if King Eric is needed to cover other positions.
