Your 3-5-2 Formation?

Thu Oct 24, 2013 3:26 pm

If we were to change to a 3-5-2 Formation, what starting 11 would you go with?

Personally I would go:

Marshall
Caulker Hudson Turner
Medel
Whittingham Mutch
Kim Bellamy
Campbell Odemwingie

You need to play wing backs in a 3-5-2.

Exactly. That tactic worked really well for Holloway at Palace! Remember Bobby Gould as Wales manager saying before our game away to Holland "we're not afraid, we will have a go at them". We lost 8-0! :lol:

You need wing backs with 3 at the back.

I would play Medel at the back in a 3-5-2 allowing for a slightly more attacking midfield

I dont think we have the CB's to platy 3 at the back, taylor and Theo could prob do a job at wingback but we would end up with a back 5.

Amongst other things its one of the reasons holloway got the sack and failed to keep blackpool up.
