Why is the role called "Trequartista"? It should have been "Fantasista"


Recommended Posts

It's something that has always left me a little perplexed.
"Trequartista" is a word borrowed from Italian, but as an Italian myself, I can assure you that the term is used here only to refer to anyone playing in the central attacking midfielder position, regardless of the tasks assigned to him

I know it's a bit late now and we've gotten used to it, but if we really wanted to use an Italian term, "fantasista" would have been much better.
In Italy, it's used to indicate a very creative player who plays in any offensive position and is given absolute freedom to invent with very few defensive duties. It would have fit the FM role to a T.

... And that's it, I was bored and thought of throwing this into the forum.
