I think in the past 15 years they have trained wingers differently. The emphasis is on dribbling, cutting inside, shooting from angles. Crossing isnt emphasised as much, esp with target men not being as dominant.

If Mendy played for a mid table or lower side, they'd probably play him as a left midfielder.

Inverted wingers, but it still isn't a excuse for players not to be able to cross the ball first time or on a touch and hit. A forward with good movement will always find space in the box, regardless if it is a high, medium or low cross.
