4-3-3

Heard an interview with BBM where he said he normally prefers to play with a 4-3-3 formation, although also said he is adaptable.

If it is to be 4-3-3 then what players that we already have do you think are suited to that system and which could struggle in that setup?

One player we know that will understand that system, if he stays, is Alex Robertson. He worked with BBM at Man City and did well.

It will definitely be a different viewing experience for us, having watched 4-2-3-1 for the last two seasons. In my opinion, it will be better to watch - as long as it works, obviously.

I use Warnock's promotions 433 as my barometer

ACM - (Bryson) think Robertson and Joel Colwill are good shouts
Sitter (Gunnar) - Ralls, Wintle, King
CM (Ralls) Rino, Turnbull, Rubin

CF- (Zohore) Salech, Simic, Ette
RF - (NML) Davies, Nyakuhwa
LF - (Holiett) Tanner, Ashford

Back 4 pretty standard

I don't see Rubin as an attacking CM., he isn't athletic enough to press, so we need to repurpose or sell him. I'm also not sure if Ashford is quick enough for wide forward roles. He likes it inside.

I am sure it will be far more sophisticated than this.

My fave to watch, when the team are drilled and know how to execute
I'd love this.
