City play a 343 in possession, with a box or sometimes diamond midfield, with stones dropping back into the back 4 for a 433 without the ball. Stones is effectively a modern sweeper or playmaking defender in the Beckenbauer or Guillet mould

@rothbardfreedom 10 месяцев назад

This formation is also cool at building up phase. The center defender can go forward, on the are of a CDM, making 3 in the midfield. Or the two wide defenders can go forward, and the LWB/RWB go center, making 4 on the midfield. Rudger and Azpilicueta did that often.

@NanobanaKinako 10 месяцев назад

Can you explain 4-1-2-1-2 too? I call it Diamond Midfielder Formation because the formation has 1 right mid, 1 left mid, 1 attacking mid and one defensive mid which makes the diamond shape between strikers and defenders. But you can replace the 2 side midfielders with 2 centre midfielders creating a smaller diamond.

@rajacyrilchidiac760 10 месяцев назад

Deschamps tried the 3-4-3 (or rather 3-4-1-2) for some time with the French team. With the CMs being Pogba and Kanté at the time, and the LWB and RWB being Theo Hernandez and Kinglsey Coman, there was no problem for the attacking side of the game and it was quite efficient goal-scoring wise, but the big flaw was that a defense with only 3 CBs is really weak and the players need to be really efficient and careful. The french team conceded too many goals, which costed them the elimination against Switzerland in the Euros. After that Deschamps decided to return to the system he usually prefers, the one with 4 defenders, and got to penalties in the world cup 2022 final. I think this system with 3 CBs can only work if you have really amazing defenders who are used to playing with each other, if you don't have that I think having 4 defenders is a must

@llbuitre 10 месяцев назад

Actually, 3-4-3 and 3-5-2 formation weakness on defense are not exploited much nowadays since wingers are cutting inside. Unlike during the 90s and 2000s, wingers are near the touchline and you need fullbacks to match them. So 3 at back will just be fine with the current setup.
