what is the difference between a wingback and a fullback

[mourinho-herrera-defense]

so i've been implementing a 4-3-1-2 (with one of my forwards playing as an IF), the shape resembles that of a 4-4-2 diamond, i've thought about switching my fullbacks to wingbacks as i think they play more vertically, but how would it affect my play? would i be more defensively prone in wide areas?

Really poor video. Talked alot, used alot of specific language but i understood nothing. Much better is a clip with something drawn to explain the movement of different roles on the pitch.

Wingback higher starting position, higher mentality than an orthodox fullback who has a lower mentality and lower starting position.

Or you could just open the game up and look at the settings that both roles come with, and then you'll know the differences. By looking at the settings you can see how they both play and see the subtle changes in the settings.
