I dont mean only you when saying below, but people who completely write off the formation point blank. I dont get it, the problem with 4-3-1-2 was with limited attackers who couldnt intelligently link up with Diego or the (limited) midfield in general, just being clumsy oafs who wait on the long balls, making us predictable and leaving Diego solo (remember Camo was out for some games too, so even worse, playing infromt of 3 DMs).
So I have NO idea why 4-3-1-2 is automatically written out despite when one of the two attackers would be Del Piero (Alen said it well in earlier post), who has the exact qualities needed to make it work, someone who drops deeper and links up the attack and mid when needed with good feet and creative responsibility, playing off one twos with Diego, holding up the ball etc. Basically what Gio is doing but in slightly more advanced role. So this is to all who keep harping on this, seriously, what gives???
