Not necessarily. In the latter years of Moyes first spell iirc we used to play Pienaar/Mirallas, Fellaini and Osman with Gibson/Phil Neville behind them, 5 players who were never blessed with much pace at that. Charly is certainly capable of...
In regards to where he'd play considering we already have Ndiaye on the left I'd reckon we'd play him through the middle with Charly in a deeper role beside Gana (ie where he played for Juve and Flamengo). Would certainly be a significant upgrade...
Our squad as it stands:

Coleman
Patterson
Tarkowski
O'Brien
Branthwaite
Mykolenko
Iroegbunam
Garner
Armstrong
Alcaraz
Ndiaye
McNeil
Beto
Chermiti
