Just articulating my preference - almost diametrically opposite to the way Hughton will line up.
One of my concerns is that we continue to concede soft goals - and both of our full backs are better going forward than defending.
I suppose so. We have a dearth of CB's and a couple of attacking FB's so I'm surprised a back 3/5 hasn't been tried yet. But didn't I read once that CH had only played his teams that way just a handful of times? Think that's right.
Having said that, Sabri tried playing 3 CB's a few times last season and it was generally a unmitigated disaster.
