Title: Formation - definitely 4-3-3/4-5-1 Post by: pauld on Friday, October 22, 2010, 14:11:21 This quote from Matt Ritchie's interview in today's Adver
Quote The formation helps me. It’s a 4-3-3, but a 4-5-1 when we are defending, so there is a bit of a licence to get forward when we’ve got the ball. http://www.thisisswindontownfc.co.uk/news/headlines/8468458.Striking_it_Ritch_/?ref=rssCan we put that one to bed now?

Apparently not.Title: Re: Formation - definitely 4-3-3/4-5-1 Post by: A Gent Orange on Friday, October 22, 2010, 16:54:01 It does, unless your foward line is Robinho, Ronaldinho and Ibramhovic as it is at AC Milan and not one of them will drop back/defend/run.
But is playas they have Super Pippo Inzaghi to come off the bench. Title: Re: Formation - definitely 4-3-3/4-5-1 Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Friday, October 22, 2010, 16:58:42 I'm no good with formations - the fuckers keep running around.
A front three of Ball, Austin and Ritchie could cause a few problems I would think :hmmm: Title: Re: Formation - definitely 4-3-3/4-5-1 Post by: DV on Friday, October 22, 2010, 17:52:07 So, its a 4-5-1 giving the wingers license to go forward due to the extra man in midfield.

Let it go for fuck sake!

It's a 4-3-3 if the starting position is that your focus is on being involved in the attack but mindful of backing up when necessary. 4-5-1 would suggest your first thought is to be held back in midfield. Personally I think we should call it a 4-3-2-1 in true FM fashion, everyone understand's their formations this way now. Title: Re: Formation - definitely 4-3-3/4-5-1 Post by: pauld on Friday, October 22, 2010, 20:37:57 Can we not call it a Christmas tree formation? I like to think of Ritchie and Ball as baubles with tinselly bits
