Another disappointing result.
You are Mark Robins.
You now feel that you have one more roll of the die...
What crazy/outlandish formation/ tactic do you come up with?
I'll start:
3-5-2 formation with inverted wing-backs. Two CMs and a CAM, Two strikers with one playing Target Man, the other Shadow Sticker/ Second Striker
+++++++++++++ Dovin ++++++++++++
++++++Thomas Kitchin Binks++++++
Da Silva +++ Torp + Sheaf +++ MVE
+++++++++++Rudoni++++++++++++
+++++ Simms + BTA/Bassette +++++
The team focuses on controlling the middle of the pitch while still maintaining width through dynamic movement. The three center-backs provide defensive solidity, while the wing-backs, instead of staying wide, tuck inside to overload the midfield. This creates an advantage in central areas, allowing the team to dominate possession and build up attacks through short passes.
The inverted wing-backs are key to this system. By drifting into central midfield during attacks, they give the team more passing options and help the midfielders link up with the strikers. When the wing-backs move inward, they also leave space on the flanks for the center-backs to advance, or for the strikers to drift wide, which makes the team more unpredictable. Defensively, the inverted wing-backs can either shift back to wide positions or stay central to compress the midfield and stop counter-attacks.
Up front, the two strikers play complementary roles. Simms holds up the ball and acts as the focal point for crosses and long balls, while BTA/ Bassette make runs behind the defense, feeding off through balls and capitalising on space created by Simms.
