Thanks.
Personally, I think that we need to be able to change formation two, three, four times a game if it demands it.
Conceding goals comes down to a lack of discipline as certain players wander off and then our overall failure to track runs and mark open opposition men in the box.
I disagree about it being limiting in possession. IMO, football is a simple game of pass and move. It doesn't matter what formation you play if players move into space to receive the ball and then use it well. The issue is that very often they make poor passes and fail to do the simple things properly.
I take your point re: wing backs but what you are really talking about is the quality of a wing back. And I agree, ours don't do that job well on the whole.
Agree, Nuno had it sorted. And in fairness to your point of view, we did have problems scoring goals from that system.
Thank you for your counter points.
