Chat Inside forward or Inverted Winger

[aydot]

Hello guys, I need to know the difference between an Inside forward and an Inverted winger

[Mr B]

I think they're largely quite similar but essentially the IW cuts inside to find a forward pass but the IF cuts inside to get a chance to shoot.

IFs will stay narrower and run with the ball more, and shoot more often. IWs are better suited to slower buildup and will hold their position to provide passing options and pull defenders away for runs from midfield or fullback.

Thanks for the analysis
