We're getting to the point now where we can field players to suit any formation.

Stick your ideas in here: 433/352/442/4222 fill ya boots, express your badass managerial self.

I want to see something like this at some point...


-Lloris---

Walker------Toby-------Wimmer--------Rose

-------Sissoko-------Dier-------Dembele---------

-----------.-Lamela-------Kane--------Vince----.-----------

We're only going to play 4-2-3-1.
I think poch may slip in a couple 352s this season (seems more comfortable with that switch-up). Fact is he needs to add to his repertoire in this respect and begin to instill different modes into the squad.

He must have that as a manager.

Maureen has won much of what he has playing 4231, but he has the lot in his locker and can bust out with something different if needed.

I think it's imperative poch grows as a manager in this regard.

Regardless, this is a thread for the fans more than anything else. What we'd like to see on occasion.

If we want to go gungho in a home game against lesser opposition, id play

Lloris
Walker toby verts rose
Dier dembele
Sissoko lamela nkoudou
Kane

A more conservative approach would be to replace nkoudou with alli or eriksen.

If we want a stronger and tougher defensive lineup, wanyama takes dembele's place while dembele plays ACM and lamela moves LAM.

That brings good drive and pace to either side of the A3. If GKN shows decent creativity it might just wake Christian up a bit.

Guys, stop trying to take a big fat doo doo in here. It's a bit of fun to use our imagination and explore ideas.

If you don't want to, fine, plenty of other threads around.

Nothing - it's a Mike Bassett thing.

And that Poch has only played 1 formation in his entire life. Which is the same one 90% of modern sides play. And which suits us very well.
Then this is not the thread for you, sunshine.

I'm the original 'we won't see anything other than 4231' but now, as fans, we can explore viable alternatives that might come in handy for the odd game or two.

There are other threads if you don't like the theme of this one.

Could stick Dembele in Alli's place and Vince where dembele is then I'd roll wid it.

Poch has played a few different formations actually.

--------------------Lloris

Alderweireld Wimmer Vertonghen

------------Dier Wanyama

---------Alli Dembele Sissoko

----------------Eriksen

-------------------Kane

This would be absolutely suicidal, everything packed in a narrow looking midfield, and a weak defense and forward line. But something makes me want to see it.

A Conte styled 3-5-2 could be interesting. In the example below you could also take out a striker and put on Lamela, or an nuber 10 or take out a midfielder for and eriksen.

Lloris

Toby Dier Verts

Walker -------------------------------- Rose

Sissoko Wanayama Dembele

Kane Janssen
