Agree, unless you drop one of jack/kamaraBy playing 4 at the back - we only ever habe 2 players constantly playing defensive (the CB’s) as the two full backs are generally attacking.
By playing 3 at the back - we’ll pretty much have three players playing defensive. So ironically it’ll be more of a defensive formation.
Comedy goldWhat you on about? Just because he has coaching badges and been at a few clubs doesnt mean that he knows more than the average guy. This formation has won the grand sum of nothing and needs changed. Ive got my coaching badges and coached in the states for 6 years as well as a few other countries but i wouldnt diss a supporters knowledge just because they havent done any coaching...this isnt rocket science...
Armchair fans are far too obsessed with the simple numbers in a formation lineup.
"433 doesn't work ... I hate 352 etc etc"
Two teams can play 433 and play it vastly different.
You can be a very defensive 352 or a very attacking 352.
It's more to do with the individuals in the side, their specific and team roles and sub systems within the shape (that change when in and out of possession, in transition, dependent on area or what side of pitch ball is on etc etc)
Same applies to all formations, they ALL work (and they all fail) depending on many many more variables than the simple numbers attributed to 3 general areas on the pitch at kick off.
I’m not even saying what I think mate or I’ll get a ban haha14 shots at goal yesterday and 60/40 possession.
3-5-2 will see us having to play without Kent and Hagi, or you will lose control of the midfield.
Wow>
This reads like like someone who never actually played a real game of football in their life.
A 3-5-2 reverts to 5-3-2 when defending, so 5 at the back? No thanks. He has tweaked the 4-3-3. Hagi and Kent more central so allows Tav and Barasic the space to bomb forward. It has worked so far in friendlies and Aberdeen, why change up?Might we revisit this?
We have three good centre halves. We have wing backs....best in the league.
We have a #10 now.
Motherwell game was unlucky and not so bad...no need to panic IMHO. I felt idea was thrown out too quickly.
Might also help create more in certain games against teams in SPL that are 'the other ten'
4-2-3-1 works perfectly and it can be altered at anytime into a 4-3-3

We need 2 first team pics for every position and we’re not far off it now, 4 players short which will be bought when Morelos eventually leaves

People are allowed opinions on football fans forums believe it or not.
It's why we all, you included I presume, join in.
Roofe just signedSwap Zungu and Roofe for Kante and Kane because they don't play for us either

I expected a few wee bites but you’ve excelled
The gift that keeps on givingLike i said, football isnt exactly rocket science but you seem to believe it is..thats comedy gold..
The gift that keeps on giving
At what exactly? Do you think coaching is rocket science?
There will be games Hagi will not play.Where do Kent and Hagi fit into a 3-5-2 ?
I sincerely hope we use it sometimes to give us options and unpredictability. Worked a treat for them last season when they got stale. I also think it helps get some of our best talent on the park at the same time.

He's gotta find the keys to unlock all that.Games like yesterday will see him sacked. Third season of technical skills leading to 70/30 possession but hardly any shots at goal. It can't go on.
Forgot about Kent!Nae Kent, nae party.
