"Oh, it's Delarre! A midfielder is replacing a central forward, so it looks like San Remo is switching to a 442!"
Sure enough, after Delarre entered the field, he took the position of left midfielder, Morici became the right midfielder, and Kaint and Lam became San Remo's double defensive midfielders.
Fernandez and Lu Yang pushed forward to the frontmost positions.
Interestingly, neither Fernandez nor Lu Yang are conventional forwards in the truest sense.
Especially since the '2' in 442 is often referred to as a pair of central forwards.
An atypical pair of central forwards emerged.
Fernandez's playing style is actually closer to that of a winger, although he has always been positioned as a left or right winger at San Remo.
As for Lu Yang, last season he was an attacking midfielder, and this season he's playing as a right winger.
Undoubtedly, this arrangement by San Remo is partly due to a lack of personnel and also an effort to strengthen their defense.
