Ring is definitely the point guard and you're not giving him credit for what he does. He's typically very calm on the ball, makes the right pass and can hold the ball in traffic.We need a holding midfield that's strong and can pass the ball. I like having aggressive guys in there but Ring, Herrera, Lopez are not good passers and play killers. I applaud Maxi's effort to come back for the ball and build play up, but that's not his game. He creates a void where he's supposed to be as a link to the top. So there always empty space there. Our midfield is all over the place. Maxi needs to play a CAM role and I like having two DMs sitting back, but there still needs to be an upgrade there. I like both Herrera and Ring, but one of them needs to point guard this team and not sure which of either can be that guy.
Hererra also has the ability to make the good, cutting through ball pass. He's been off his game for the last two, but part of that is not having the regular midfield of Ring/Maxi next to him.
