Is it a 4-4-2? 4-3-3, with Sakala and Kent on the wings. (Sakala is a technically wide player, he's not a striker - it's just that we've played him there.) 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said on here before. We turn up. We win. We are the bloody champions. Simple. I agree, but... 'If'. I'VE GOT THE FEAR! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both usually play on the left so it will be interesting to see who shifts? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah--I see what you meant, now. If I recall correctly, Kent has swapped wings with Hagi mid-game quite often, so maybe the same? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 10,655 Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 GvB does like the 4-4-2 in defence, when we've not got the ball. That would leave Arfield (solid, dependable, workmanlike player) wide, with Sakala and Morleos up front. But that's situational, not the game plan, per se -- Man City drop into a 4-4-2 in defence, but you wouldn't say they're set up in a 4-4-2. These mid-game chances are quite interesting, from GvB. SG was, I maintain, quite flexible in his formations, but certainly not mid-game; it was always a set way of playing for the whole match, unless there was a need (losing a player, or the set-up not working). 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
