Does anyone have any experience with 451? Last year that was my most hated formation, but this year with midfield runners that might actually work.
Would be nice if I could get Kagawa to work in that team also.
Fellaini is my new fav player, hes a beast at CM in the 433. Is it worth getting the SIF?
really style depended i think
i hate 4-5-1, very compact defensively but seems totally off offensively and i couldnt control matches at all
4-2-3-1 is a great, balanced formation and great for a controlled possession game
didnt like 4-3-3 either
fellaini is too sluggish for my taste but he is ridiculous on set pieces and basically unplayable, seems to lose too many "normal" air duels tho
currently giving the 4-3-2-1 a try which is usually very, very vulnerable to counters so i put 2 CMs with high/high work-rates in + a pacey backline
also pace seems more important than ever
i loved pirlo last year but this year pirlo/cesc etc as CDM even with a pacey enforcer alongside is more of a liability than an asset
