Does Pinto really need to be so far up the pitch trying to take people on?

Beckham was a winger and yet rarely tried to dribble past people. He used to do a lot of crosses from deep positions.

In some instances it's actually better if the full-backs try to cross the ball early from deep positions but NC don't seem to do much of that. Although perhaps that is understandable with only 1 striker up front.

Perhaps the solution is to have 2 strikers and not make such high demands on the full-backs to get so far forwards?
