Just noticed Newport County, playing away at Colchester knowing that a win will likely put them top of League 2, with a starting formation of 4-1-2-1-2.
I've always believed good players will beat a good formation but then think about how our formation defines us and restricts us. Easy for opposition teams to work us out and play against us. Two wingers kill us, theses days.
versus County, away, very narrow.....but 2 up front. A lot depends on 2 strong, defending full backs and well organised defensive midfield screen.
Just got me thinking, are we slaves to how we set up?
