@1Leggo9my9Eggo2 8 лет назад

Was 4-4-2 even mentioned, probably the most used formation ever and arguably the most dominant, it even won Leicester the league last season.

@alanfrost75 8 лет назад

Yeah my thoughts exactly. Seems an outright sin not to mention it.

@eliad6543 8 лет назад

4-4-2 is when you are trying to make all of the areas of the field covered by your players using 4-3-3 but then you fuck up and start defending more

@Mrwitte95 8 лет назад

not to mention even atletico madrid's tactical success under Simeone with the 4-4-2

@1Leggo9my9Eggo2 8 лет назад

Eliad Eyar no it's not. 4-4-2 has two wingers or wide players playing in the midfield 4, with two genuine strikers playing ahead of them. This is considered a more defensive and solid approach. 4-3-3 you essentially play 1 genuine striker flanked by two forwards/wingers on either side. In the midfield ideally you play 3 central midfielders one defensive, one box to box and one attacking. This formation is used for more fluidity and pace in the attack making it a very offensive formation. A 4-3-3 that fucks up and needs to defend as you say would become a 4-5-1, a formation Mourinho is accustomed to.

@JParkerAdair 8 лет назад

+Eliad Eyar No way. It allows you to spread the field, give your strikers room to run, and take pressure off a single striker as you see in a lone striker formation (so boring). You only play two center mids which allow your outside mids to function as wingers, and if the CM sit back a beat, the winger can cut to the middle almost as if he's a CAM. While this video was made before Leicester City won the league (which is why they obviously weren't included) the Foxes employed these aspects of the 4-4-2 but then also added the pressing attackers to turn the ball over in the attacking third. Shinji Okazaki was massively overrated for this; he floored it for 65-75 minutes a match, constantly pressing the ball then let Leonardo Ulloa come in to continue the press but also give the added bonus of being able to defend in the middle of the field, like a CM. Leicester resembled Total Football +Catenaccio with wingbacks who push forward & lots of overlapping and position versatility.

@Blinko7 9 лет назад

theIcyToad A false nine would imply the non-use of a traditional striker, yet in the 4-5-1 here it's more of a second striker style

@bobroberts6508 9 лет назад

***** It's never left, at least in the lower leagues. You see a lot of pacy wingers, attacking fullbacks, and target men, all with suspect first touches -- 4-4-2 maximises the number of crosses, and heads to meet those crosses. It's only when you come up against teams well-drilled and inventive enough to make other formations effective that it falls apart. I've seen a few smaller teams attempt tiki-taka, for instance, but as soon as the pass completion falls below 90-something % it falls apart completely.

@wotsup9oo 8 лет назад

the difference between modern formations and old formations are that in modern formations there are differences in defense and attack while in old times the roles were defined in defensive and attacking positions. For instance, an old 4-3-3 consisted on 3 players waiting on the offside line. Now a 4-3-3 is a 2-3-5 in attack and a 4-5-1 in defense. In 50 years player have come to cover a distance 3 times longer run on the pitch in 90 minutes. In old times they ran 3 kilometres; now they cover easily 10 km in a match. See the difference?

@minhkhoitranle4276 5 лет назад

@sheriffsaliu9872 8 лет назад

In the 90s, the 4-4-2 was the most popular approach; Ancelloti found success with Milan using the 4-3-2-1 (Christmas tree) with deep lying playmaker (pirlo) and a front playmaker (rui costa, kaka)and Mourinho brought in the 4-5-1 which has been modified into a 4-2-3-1. This is currently the most predominant approach.

There is a massive historical mistake in here. "Catenaccio" was actually invented in Switzerland and developed by the Italian club teams (specially Inter Milan) in the '60s, not in the '80s. Au contraire, during the '80s Italians overcame the traditional catenaccio under the guidance of Arrigo Sacchi's AC Milan, that still now are the last team able to win the European cup back-to-back, imposing the 4-4-2 which was dominating in the '90s.

Teams used to choke the back 3rd with defenders because defenders used to just be big and strong. As CBs began to improve and become more tactically savvy, having less defenders became affordable.

@Pinkybum 8 лет назад

I don't think formations are really the problem nowadays. Any of the modern formations will give any team a solid foundation to build team play around. What I see as the most necessary evolution is that individual players need to develop their positional intelligence more whereby their play is dictated by their position on the field and the positioning and movement of the opposition. I often see a fast break by the opposition team which you can see could be easily defended as long as the defense were clear on their roles as to who they were going to pick up and what space they were going to cover. Instead what we often see is more than one player over-pursuing an attacker or the defense getting confused as to who is covering who, this situation probably occurs because individual players have their roles coached into them rather than the intelligence to quickly assess the dynamics of the developing situation.

@jizzinmypants9000 9 лет назад

Our Varsity team explained the 4-2-3-1 and basically it was a solid defense while having an attack with numbers and if you picture the formation in your mind when they are defending there are no gaps with if you push them back and then when they attack the defensive mids stay back with the defenders while the full backs went to attack with the forwards and wingers. It was very hard to find a gap so no one got through and a great attack as well. He simply said it was a numbers game and it worked amazing, our team was undefeated, won the tournament and league, and was also in the newspapers.

What about Arrigo Sacchi's Milan of the late 80s/early 90s. Completelt revolutionised football by using 3 attacking forwards and the full backs sitting on half way line which condensed the field, making it harder for the opposition to win possession

@holychild2581 9 лет назад

The 4-3-3 is a solid formation. I can see the 4-3-3 extending out into a 4-2-1-3 with the 1 interchanging between defensive and attack for high pressure and quick shifting from defense to attack through a few quick passes.

He destroyed a coachless team who were struggling in all big games that season. Not a great example of tiki-taka. If weren't for Chelsea fluke wins in 2012 Barca and Bayern would have met when they were both top of their game and we would have seen one of the best finals ever. Shame :/

@TheDeathJesters1337 6 лет назад

I like the 3-4-3 with wing backs that Wolves have been using (maybe biased, since i support them). Wolves are 3-4-3 in attack and 5-4-1 when coming backwards with a huge emphasis on counter attacking football. Plenty of pace up front with no real out and out striker, all 3 upfront are wingers by trade really. with Neves and whoever gets slotted in net to him, usually Saiss or N'Diaye and creative outlets for the front 3 or the wing backs when they come forward. Nuno completely changed Wolves this season. Traditionally a simple 4-4-2 kind of team with emphasis on wing play and long ball. Nuno encouraged shorter passing and plenty of patience when unable to break on the counter. It's been a joy to watch all season.

@arimagiiik3214 8 лет назад

jurgi lowe's steel tactics with Germany. the 4231 was one of the most machine oriented formations slowing down any attack because of the sheer pressure and dominance in midfield as well as a strong a front line up that was headed by the deadly klose that would counterattack any team and score multiple goals in a game ruthlessly destroying any side no matter how talented. all teams before were based around a central player, Maradona, kruyf, pele, messi, neymar. Germany were a team and lowe's side proved it by crushing all the greats, 4-0 against Argentina, 7-0 against Brazil.

I feel like the MLS style of football has a lot of potential. They're a lot of young talent who simply tire out the opponents with how fast paced they play. If they were tactically better, or more talented teams played in this style, then I'd think they could be very successful.

@danielvaldez9946 8 лет назад

There style is really intriguing. It almost looks like there attacking plays are rehearsed. But they lack so much technical ability. Time and time again teams with high physical intensity have been surrendered by tiring them out w precise passing like arsenal against Barcelona in the ucl and timed long balls like Leicester against pretty much every big club in the bpl

I was flying out of Amsterdam the day of Euro 2000 semi vs Italy. Had a chance to be amongst supporters, and from what I understand, it's always a week-long party. :) Coolest part of my only European trip, and 16-year-old me fell in love with the Oranje. I picked up an orange soccer ball before I left and got an Ajax jersey (that still fits 32-year-old me!) at the airport before I left. When kids here in the States try to tell me soccer is boring and that basketball tricks are cooler, I pull up a video of Edgar Davids and convert them. :)

@jabrown 8 лет назад

I really like that nowadays, the sweeper is returning (in 3-5-2 for example, or 5-3-2 with wingbacks, you can give the central centre back a free role). But I think on modern football games like FIFA, you can't play with a sweeper anymore. Shame.

@acenog123 9 лет назад

I think that the Italy team was the last team to truly have a defensive philosophy; now, because modern Full Backs bomb forward at every chance, defensive solidity relies upon the centre backs and the goalkeeper. There are occasional defensive full backs such as Matteo Darmian and Cesar Azpilicueta but the majority often make creating a relationship with the winger in front of them a priority over defending.

@Leo2112Lion 9 лет назад

But that's the thing though. Everyone in Europe outside of England has practically converted over to this new philosophy on fullback play. The new generation realizes the benefit in teaching their backs to attack and press up opposition when transitioning from defense to attack. It presses on the wings which leads to more depth and width to work with in midfield and the final third were goal scoring chances happen

@KuSaiki 8 лет назад

Cruyff didn't invent total football, he was the perfect exponent of it put not even his manager Rinus Michaels came up with it on his own, total football had been used in some way or another for years by Real Madrid, Hungary and even Burnley and Scottish Manager Jimmy Hogan inspired Michaels with his pioneering in possesion based football

'One RU-vid-video says more than thousand words' ! Especially this one :-)

@AlfredTheGreatestEver 8 лет назад

you completely glossed over the rise of the back 3 formations, with some of the greatest teams employing this tactic. Franz beckenbauer made the sweeper position his own and inspired the rise of Franco baresi to create the libero, a more attack minded version of the sweeper who would start possession based attacks from deep. this had more influence over the next evolution of formations with the rise of la pivoti (the pivot) which is personified by players such as Andrea pirlo, xavi and Paul scholes.

@kylehart8829 8 лет назад

I'd say Beckenbauer was a Libero himself. The term refers to the fact that your other defenders (including CBs) are freed up to gain attacking roles; the sweeper's own attacking role is irrelevant to the term Libero.

@Lodatzor 8 лет назад

He also glossed over Tottenham Hotspur pioneering the one-two passing tactic in the late 50s, and changing English football. But he still includes Arsenal basically cheating by having the rules changed. I smell a gooner.

@jbelli211 8 лет назад

With the universal use of attacking fullbacks, box-to-box midfielders, defenders wanting to join in attack, and forwards pressing the back line I believe we are moving towards something like Holland's total football again. Each player has much more responsibility and their roles will be much less defined but be expected to do anything and everything depending on the needs of the moment

@brianstewart3478 7 лет назад

If I was a manager, I would employ a 5-3-1-1. 3 Centre backs, 2 wing backs who are inbetween midfield and defence. A strong 3 manned central midfield the wide positions covered by the fluid wing backs, a CAM who is always backing up the striker playing a more CF position and a striker who can stay up for the whole match. If we score, the wing backs become full backs, if we concede they become wingers.

@comfee 8 лет назад

@comfee 8 лет назад

***** i dont think u've ever played professionally in your life. Chelsea (who popularized it, and is best example) played 4-2-3-1 format where DMs would drop down to help CBs while AMF served as DM/CM. It's just tweaked tactics of 4231 and 532. Having 4 CBs or double full backs would prove as a disaster because there is no way u can hold out for most of the match using something like that. But i firmly believe someone will pull it of and make work. And that is the difference between strategy and position tactic in football. Different things even tho one cant work without the other.

@mitchelbaccinelli3319 8 лет назад

Great video but one correction should be made. The idea that in Total Football all players can play all positions is an oversimplification. The true idea of Total Football (as stated by Rinus Michels) is that all players can and do take part in all phases of the game (Defense, Build-Up, Attack). That doesn't mean that a Center Back taking part in the Attack will be a Striker. What it means is that at all times, each player has a duty. Before Total Football, defenders would often simply wait around, maybe track some runs. Rinus Michels dictated that the Defenders should push up the line, playing an aggressive offside trap, allowing for quick recycling of the ball to press the attack. In contrast, a Striker, during the defensive phase, would be required to press the defenders from the front, not be expected to come back and defend set pieces effectively. The ball playing defenders who came out of defense to launch attacks were an important part of the Total Football philosophy, but in no way were expected to be able to play as strikers. It was simply a way to add an extra number during build-up, which was considered a secondary duty for a Center Back.

The 523 seems to be increasingly popular these days, especially with the success of Chelsea. Wingbacks that provide width in attack and defend crosses into the area, two creative box to box midfielders, and a targetman style striker being the hallmark of the formation.

@epictoastedwaffles 9 лет назад

I think tactics are somewhat ruining the spectacle of a football match, I've seen plenty of matches where one side would just go out and kick their opposition around or would set up by parking the bus. It prevents either team from playing football and leads to a generally boring game. Gone are the days when 2 teams would go out and try and out score the opposition as opposed to trying to concede less than their opponents, who's with me? (Bare in mind this is just my opinion and not some 'fact' I'm trying to ram down people's throat)

@GOStheG 9 лет назад
