I think it is easier if you have a strong identity around the way you want to play, and you understand how to make it work

i.e. we've targeted pacy wingers for the wing back positions specifically, rather than - for example - playing some central midfielders there and then bizarrely some centre backs.

Get players in to suit the system you want to play, rather than just get in whoever you can get and hope that you can find a system where it all works.
