what does this even mean? is it like a leftback who plays at rightback?
Gavin Morris
Well we all know modern full backs push forward up the pitch but they usually go outside. I'd imagine inverted full backs just cut inside instead or something

For me it's the False GK. It's a role most teams haven't picked up on but Uruguay used it to its fullest in the world cup.

it's a pep thing. if you watched any of his games at bauern, he would get lahm to tuck in and play as an unironic midfielder when they had the ball. kimmich likewise. he's doing the same to zinchenko right now (although that makes a bit more sense because he is actually a midfielder)

Basically an Inverted Fullback is like a regular traditional fullback bar one difference. If there is space in the middle of the pitch, for example only a single midfielder, he will cut inside and draw players to him. The idea is this then gives wingers or forwards or attacking midfielders space for them to pass to. The other 'role's is essentially to run fast and dribble well and hope you force a foul near the box or at least within delivery range. If, however, the midfield is crowded with players, especially ones who are defensive minded, they'll act as a normal fullback and run the wings/look for overlap. That's basically it. Think of Le Cut Inside Man except he's doing it in his own half or just inside theirs and he's doing it to make space for his team mates. The reason it's a desired ability and why it's so rare in defenders is the lack of speed, dribbling, crossing, passing and control on top of defensive ability is a lot of fullbacks. Nowadays, if you can run fast, do it all day on the pitch and get get a tackle in or hold players up, you're good. It's the meme position of the future but I doubt most managers will encourage it unless their midfield is dogshit or their opponent's is.
