So first game and we see a return to everyone’s favourite formation 442. Not sure whether we’ll necessarily see it again but it’s an interesting debate.
I think it can work personally but you need to right players to make it work. I actually think with colback we actually do have the central midfield for it. Not sure whether you use yacob or attempt to slot carvalho in.
The key will be how he gets carvalho into the team. If playing 442 I would go like this:
Pants
Darikwa Figs Bena Robinson
Goncalves colback yacob lolley
Carvalho
Grabban
