Tatsuya Ito: The fight for the position at 1. FC Magdeburg

The competition within the team of 1. FC Magdeburg becomes noticeably more intense, especially for Tatsuya Ito, which is seen by many as one of the most talented wingers in the 2nd Bundesliga. But despite his skills, the Starting team has proven to be difficult to reach for him. The situation is also complicated by the obligation of Livan Burcu, which puts it under pressure when it comes to his place in the team.

What potential is in factuya ito?

Tatsuya Ito regularly proves his strengths on the pitch. In the current season, his success rate is at dribbling at the top of the league, with an average success rate of 61 percent. During his 38 -minute deployment time, during the home game against Elversberg, ito showed an impressive performance, in which he almost emerged as a match winner. Such moments make it clear why he is valued as a joker. However, it is striking that in the last 65 second division operations of the FCM he was only on the pitch in 12 games from the start. This raises the question of what stands in the way.

The challenge in the team structure

The main problem for Ito is the strong competition: Baris Atik dresses the same position and has proven to be indispensable. This limits the possibilities for a place in the starting line -up. Despite his talent, ito has rarely met the expectations that are set for a regular player in his previous FCM period. In addition, his performance is disappointing last season, contributing only 2 goals and 3 templates.

A new teammate changes the dynamics

additive to the problem came the obligation of Livan Burcu, which showed similar skills in the 3rd league. Burcu could now act as a serious competitor for the external positions in the FCM squad. With his high pass rate and its ability to penetrate dangerously into the penalty area, Burcu could revolutionize the FCM's offensive strategy and become a tool for coach Christian Titz to expand the tactical possibilities in attack.

The change of perspective for factuya ito

Despite the developments, coach Christian Titz continues to emphasize that ito integral is for the squad structure of 1. FC Magdeburg. A departure is not an issue, but the increasing competition gives the question of how long ito can be patient in the new environment. His best way to assert himself in the squad could be to play more constant and to use his possibilities aggressively.

A call for personal responsibility

To master the challenge, ito has to improve both in its determination and the materialization of his opportunities. He has the opportunity to use this season to finally play the desired role as a central player in the team, instead of just lingering on the jumping board of a joker. A good game in Braunschweig could set the course for the rest of the season. It remains to be seen whether Tatsuya Ito creates the jump or whether he continues to slip in the hierarchy of the hierarchy.
