tell the coach where you feel most comfortable. if you feel uncomfortable at center-back tell the coach. If you feel comfortable on the right wing tell the coach, and explain that you may want to try the left wing if needed. ask your coach to arrange friendly games to try out new positions and formations ready for the new season, if you do play friendlies theres no pressure for points or a place in the next round of a tournament, and this means a manager is more willing to try players in new positions and try new formations!
