@ SkyBlue_Taylor.....
You are entitled to your opinion, as am I.
England did play 4-4-2 against Italy and France, but did it not cross your mind that we're not good enough on the International stage anymore?
England also played the "Diamond" in the last WC. in which we got mullered (In football terms) by teams that didn't play it!!!
The formation "The Diamond" that is played by AT does NOT work, if it did we would still be in the Championship now.
Finally, "The Diamond" is a relatively new formation, so you're talking out of your backside when saying managers before the likes of Coleman, Boothroyd(Lmfao wouldn't know what a diamond was hence the name "Hoofroyd") were using it.
4-4-2 kept CCFC in The Premier league for well over 30 years. so don't diss it!
