Guest User	Part of the club ethos I'd like to see: we always attack the opposition at home. (The manager can show how clever he is in the away games.)

But with trying to engrain 4-3-3 would developing that be viewed now as tinkering, or; 'chasing two rabbits and not getting a meal'? I've always kinda viewed these new-age formations from 4-3-3 to Christmas tree as pretty similar but of course they not. Differences might seem subtle but really could have drastic effect.

Oh, as long as we win Christ you all wanted him sacked a few months ago. 6th place finish and he's now the messiah and can do no wrong   Update:  I think I've got this right - He was the messiah. He then wasn't. He then was again. Then it turned out he actually wasnt. He turned into one big huge messiah again. Now he's not actually the messiah we thought he was . Now I'm hoping he rises again quickly

The Hungarians in the 50s played 3-2-3-2. Fancy systems are nothing new are they? “If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.” ― John Stuart Mill, On Liberty."
