What role would you give to a extra player on the field? Who would that be in our team? What formations do you think would grow out of it?
A free-role CAM. 4-2-3-2 formation
Özil/Reiss/Willian to rotate in that role.
-------- Auba ------ Laca --------
-------------- Özil --------------
--- Saka --- Ceballos --- -- Pepe
---------- Xhaka --- Mo --------
Tierney --- Gabriel -- Luiz - AMN
I don't know how many games we will play this defensive 3ATB formation.
Ooooo damn. Remove the goalkeeper thenYou'd have 13 players there mate.
Strategically, I think this is the only right answer.I would have an extra goalkeeper. Nothing will be coming in.
You win again, DaveI would have an extra goalkeeper. Nothing will be coming in.
Ramsey?A literal free role.
A guy who just runs all over the pitch, helping out where he wants to.
Impossible to mark and always able to make a challenge as an extra man. You could have a really structured 4-4-2 and have a guy literally out there to run about.
