Arrigo Sacchi agrees however, saying football should not be a sport of individual specialists.

Who is talking about AVB?Probably why we need more context of what was actually asked. Ferdinand doesn't mention AVB once in that interview.

The sub headline of that article:
The Spurs coach says that the new team in the dugout all agree that central players should be able to both attack and defend, as opposed to Andre Villas-Boas's system
But in none of the quotes does he mention AVB or his system.
He's 20 he needs game time to gain experience. Fergie I remember being told he couldn't win anything with kids, but I guess he didn't think it was stupid. But he had patience and gave them game time. Bentaleb will learn. If we can get better and have him learn from them then we should. But the more he plays the better he'll get.
This is what Sherwood said last year and got slated for it.
I would group the players into 2 groups.
The destructive group that sits deeper and protects the back 4 more
Bentaleb, Stambouli, Capoue
The creative group that joins in the attack more
Mason, Dembele, Paulinho
Not sure where Chiriches fits in
But a mix of 1 from each group would be the ideal blend for the 2 roles protecting the back 4. Ideally we get an old head and a young energetic one
Formations, formations, formations.
We all know the fluidity of the game and how people switch positions. But it is clear Poch has a desired system.
Fullbacks fly up the wing (clyne/shaw). When this happens you need one of the CM to sit deep and cover (wanyama) two to link the play (schneiderlin and Davis) and three to put the ball in the back of the net (Lalana, Rod, Lambert)
To me we have the fullbacks to make this happen. Mason and Bentaleb to link with Eriksen, Lamela and Kane. We just need that protecting cover to get the best out our side.
Lloris
Walker Fazio Verts Rose/Davies
---------------CDM
------Bentaleb
--------------------Mason
Lamela ---------------------Eriksen
-----------------Kane
Remember fluidity. Wanyama and Schneiderlin (Bentaleb and CDM) both go forward with Davis, but one sits back while the other moves forward.
To me we are missing a class enforcer. We are currently getting run over in the midfield thus Leicester made the game interesting.
