Need "2 short paragraphs (under 120 words total)" We have 106. Good. Need "entirely original wording, never copying source phrasing." We have some phrases maybe "left-back and one or two midfielders" is source phrase? It's factual phrase. Could rephrase: "a left-sided defender and one or two central midfielders" But source
