With the arrival of Alexandru Mitrita, irreparably Torrent will also have to change the team's setting. The characteristics of the Romanian player are completely different from those of David Villa and the other strikers available to the spanish coach. Mitrita is a versatile player, fast with big player shots. Mitrita can play in any game system and in different roles. Wing, central striker, behind the strikers, Mitrita can play all these roles. The best things Mitrita made them see as a central striker, behind two players capable of expanding the game and better serve the central striker, in this case the same Mitrita.
At the moment therefore, the ideal solution is Mitrita into the center of the attack, and to his support Jesus Medina and Tajouri-Shradi, two players who perfectly match the speed and sense of the goal. In this case Maxi Moralez would slide back into Torrent's chessboard. But the fact of having players so malleable can also push Torrent to change roles and tactical schemes during the game. Surely however, Mitrita is an important weapon more for New York City FC that will have to exploit it in the best way.
