That a 532 with EMC as a striker (laudatory) or a box do we reckon?

5 at the back

I reckon 5 at the back until 60mins then bring on fresh legs to hopefully score

5 at the back. Not saying it won't work, but seems like a bit of a cuck move from first inspection.

Hopefully second half we will unleash hell.

 

[Nick]

Wonder if we are going to just rely on full backs to get it in the box every time.

Bit worried about a formation change but hope it's just me being nervous at this stage of the season

 

[David O'Day]

ok, interesting

 

[Chris1987]

same PVA. My expected start and finish time should be just as the Boro game is ending. Hoping i cross the finish line to the news we are champions

Good luck

 

[Chris1987]

No party for me tonight, running a marathon this weekend so got to be sensible. Double celebration on Sunday night hopefully

Good luck

 

[Jamesimus]

Not what I expected. Lampard masterclass incoming?

 

[David O'Day]

3-4-3

maybe Frank does read the forum and wanted to show that functionally 3-4-3 and 5-4-1 are at the same system

 

[Colin Steins Smile]

That’s different!

 

[Chris1987]

Tats missing looks like it's had a big impact on the formation.

 

[David O'Day]

should be more than enough and they won't have seen that system coming

 

[Paul Anthony]

Wasn't expecting to see a formation change.

 

[David O'Day]

aren't they a 3 at the back team? frank does sometimes match up teams that play that

 

[Great_Expectations]

Not getting the set up.

Not sure re EMC as a 10 or 5 ATB against these. Lack of creativity on paper overall, with 3 CB’s and 2 more defensive CM’s.

However, at this point we have to trust Frank has a plan.

3421 maybe

it's a 3-4-3

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

So will emc be playing as a second striker ?

[David O'Day]

Rushworth
Lats-Thomas-kitch
Milan-Grimes-FTT-JDS
Rudi-Simms-EMC

 

[Jamesimus]

Guess it could also be Rudoni right and EMC left.

 

[Great_Expectations]

it's a 3-4-3

Yea but that doesn’t work really as you’ll have the wide midfields on top of the wingers in theory.

Sure there’s a justification behind it.

 

[Jamesimus]

Rushworth
Lats-Thomas-kitch
Milan-Grimes-FTT-JDS
Rudi-Simms-EMC

Yeah this maybe

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Weird team. Don’t think we’ll be making Esse a permanently addition (or Yang!).

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

It’ll be the 3-4-3 like at Portsmouth. Expect us to play this a lot next year

 

[PVA]

Sure there’s a justification behind it.

The wingers will both cut inside though, opening up the space for the wing backs on the overlap

 

[oscillatewildly]

5 at the back

the wingers will be tucked into the half spaces as they did away a pompey, it's a version of Glasner's system

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Rudoni out wide and drifting around like the good old days?

 

[covcity4life]

Tonight is the night Coventry city get promoted!

Or as my young son put it " come on Coventry let's get Komodo dragon"

 

[oscillatewildly]

Is everybody there now?

 

[covcity4life]

5 at the back. Not saying it won't work, but seems like a bit of a cuck move from first inspection.

Hopefully second half we will unleash hell.

Could be the last cuck comment of the season. Feel emotional

 

[RegTheDonk]

That intro on Sky just now was lovely

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

He could be trolling us and Latibeaudiere is in midfield...
