Marcos Rose Deploys Evanilson as Deep-Lying Number 10 in Surprise Move

Bournemouth’s opening pre-season friendly under new manager Marco Rose went smoothly, with a convincing 4-1 win over St Pauli. However, the big talking point of the match was the tactical switch from Brazilian signing Evanilson to a more central midfield role. Previously known for his striking duties, this move by Rose suggests deeper involvement in playmaking and goal-scoring.

Evanilson is Bournemouth’s record transfer signee at £7 million from Siping FC in 2021, but struggled for goals last season. Rose sees more potential in him playing a number 10 role closer to the box.

“Evanilson will get more chances because when you play deeper, opponents are often more relaxed and open up spaces,” explained Rose after the match. Fans now wonder whether this change could boost his goal-scoring tally in the coming season on the pitch or if it’s a temporary tactical adjustment.

Brief History of Evanilson’s Move to Bournemouth

Evanilson signed from Siping FC for £7 million, replacing Dominic Solanke as expected. But with Rose as manager, his role looks set to change dramatically, possibly opening up the striker position to new signings.

“It was a bold move by Rose,” said Jordan, sports commentator. ”Evanilson needs goals, and this could be the key to unlocking his full potential.”

Impact on the Fans and Future Moves?

With the 25-year-old Evanilson now likely to play in a more fluid attacking midfield role, Bournemouth fans will eagerly await how this affects future signings. The manager’s bold move hints at a more dynamic playing style that could rejuvenate the team.

“We’re expecting some big changes,” said one fan on BBC Sounds Explore. ”Hopefully it means better results and exciting football.”

Frequently Asked Questions
