yes because the teams get accustomed the crosses and that opens up the play in the middle of the field

And the wingers were inside-cutting--left footers on the right wing and vice versa.
We'll almost certainly use a different system, imo. Pirlo, as everyone knows, is not suitable to a 4-2-4; Krasic is strictly right footed and apparently, Licht and Ziegler are different types of fullbacks (more offensive than stay-at-home) than those used in his Siena system.

Would be interesting to see the assist stats of the wingers. Regardless, its really those numbers forward. The more options forward the higher likelihood of netting a goals. I hope that doesn't make us prone to conceding on counter attacks.

Especially with Pillow holding it down in the mid.

Didn't the article you got the quote from in your signature state they are at least trying a 4-2-4?

yea they are trying it during camp in mini games etc so until we see a pre-season game with the 4-2-4 we wont know if he is actually considering it

I feel we'll find balance somewhere. All I know is that I witness Pirlo slide tackle someone; Europe is ours.

It seems like it's gonna be 4-2-4. Even the players are saying 4-2-4, I'm pretty sure Pirlo and Pepe were talking about it.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Then again, I'm seeing Krasic on the left here-

yea i have to agree it might be a fluid formation 4-2-4 to a 4-3-3 adapting to the game

If Krasic is playing on the left as an inverted winger (Bayern style), then obviously we'll buy a left footer to cover the right, right?

Bastos seems to fit the job description.

Why would we train on a 4-2-4 then implement the 4-3-3?

 

[Salvo]

Well I hate to break it to you but we will use the 4-2-4 and if Vidal comes well bye bye Melo.

[Klin]

So good.

Sorensen is a beast.

Pirlo - Melo > Pirlo - Vidal I think. From what I have heard and seen, Vidal isn't as strong defensively. It would just be too weak.
