20 years after this formation was fashionable, I still have no idea what it means.
Is it just shorthand for a 41212?
Everyone knows that 433 is best.
My understanding was that it was 4 men in unison but according to Cruyff it was 4 guys working individually on their own roles and trust was key component to keep the shape and achieve the necessary objectives.
My suspicion is he’s leaning towards a back 3
Leno in goal...his best position
Chambers
Sokratis
Monreal
Torreira in the Henderson role
Bellend
Miki
Ramsey
Kolasinac
Aboomerang
Lacazette
So your back 3 with Torreira protecting, wing backs, Ramsey and Miki driving us forward with Auba and Lacazette up front.
Anyways...good night, au revoir, adios, sianara etc etc the googly eyed Turk...cmon Jose make a bid for him please!!!
