Atlanta United: What does Matheus Rossetto provide?
On Monday, Atlanta United signed Brazilian midfielder Matheus Rossetto from Atletico Paranaense. But what kind of player is Rossetto and how will he fit into Frank de Boer’s set-up?
To understand how new signing Matheus Rossetto fits into Atlanta United I believe it is instructive to examine the possible roles that are available. Through the first season under coach Frank de Boer, the club has used a variety of formations and tactical setups. There has been a three-man midfield used and at times just two. The available roles with this in mind can be broken down into three distinct styles rather than positions.
