Is It The Formation? 08:00 - Aug 17 with 1315 viewsDorse

One for the more tactically-minded: is 433 / 4231 the issue? From memory, we were awful under McLaren playing 4 at the back, as we were under Warburton when arrived. We switched to 3 centrebacks and things seem better.

I am not suggesting this is what we should do - recruitment has been made for fullbacks not wingbacks. However, this might explain some of the questionable play we've seen as players coming off a short preseason get their heads around their new responsibilities in the system.

Either that or we're shit, going to hell in a hand cart, couldn't make it up, etc.

What do you think? Genuinely stuck on this one. Cannot make sense of it.

'What do we want? We don't know! When do we want it? Now!'

We were far too narrow last night. Whatever formation is used there has to be width. No width and a slow build up gave Blackpools defence all the time they needed to set themselves.
