2nd half formation

Sun Feb 23, 2014 4:55 pm

Can anybody tell me what the formation was second half?

To me, i didn't think we had one. We were all over the place. There was no-one on the right side of midfield, i think Noone was playing as a left forward and Daehli was on the left flank too. I felt for Fabio as he had no help or cover on the right, hence him getting beating all the time.

We need to revert to the 4-5-1 we did 'decent' with as 4-4-2 or whatever that was yesterday, blatently does not work.

it looked like???????..........Daehli was given a free role. and Noone was told to alternate wings
formations mean nothing, its how players are told to play within the formation that counts........it was still 4 4 2..
4 5 1 can be defensive if you play it without wingers, and no driving midfield player, but can be very offensive with people like noone and zaha wide and daelhi pushing.
