Is Tyler Adams best at right back or at central midfield?
It's the debate that raged fiercely in 2019 when US national team head coach Gregg Berhalter played Adams in a hybrid right back role against Ecuador that generated positive reviews.
The debate is back after Adams, a product of the NY Red Bulls academy, played 72 minutes in a similar hybrid right back position for Bundesliga leaders RB Leipzig in their 2-0 loss at Eintracht Frankfurt in Week 19. Adams hovered on the right side of midfield for RB Leipzig and then out wide on the touchline as a right wingback before subbing out with winger Ademola Lookman taking his place.
The loss could prove a costly one for Leipzig (12W-3L-4D, 40 pts) as they dream of winning their first Bundesliga title. The race at the top is tight with four teams -- RB Leipzig, Borussia Monchengladbach, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund -- within four points.
Here's some of the social media reaction to RB Leipzig manager Julian Nagelsmann's decision to field Adams in the new role:

Great to see Tyler Adams back starting regularly for the Bundesliga leader. Such a smart young player. But his best position is central midfield, not right back.

Tyler was good today. Was quick to react, connected to his teammates, smart and calm in possession, and aggressive tackling. Great to see him getting back! #rbl
